^ This, for instance, is quite stylish imo, but on Pinups it's done so half-heartedly that the intention is unclear, and then, in Twiggy's case, it's finished off by putting a bathing cap on top which serves the dual purpose of making the image both uglier and more baffling. Together with the woobly-looking letters of the title, whoever signed off on that as a decent album cover should consider a different career path.
