People of St Tropez

Awash with celebrity appeal and dripping with excessive bling, St. Tropez lived up to the glamourous image I’ve always kept of the small fishing village turned pouty paradise for the jet set elite. A last minute change of plans brought me to this mesmerising coastal town on the Côte d’Azur where I whiled away the hours for a couple of days on one of the most pristine beaches along the Mediterranean. With mega yachts on the horizon, super cars in the car park and helicopters delivering the wealthy to their favourite hangouts on the beach often resembled a parade of the privileged. 60 years after sexpot Brigitte Bardot added to the allure of this stunning setting in “And God Created Woman” I found dozens of subjects, with heydays ranging from past to present, looking and feeling equally fabulous.
