Astrid Kirchherr (b. 20 May 1938) is a photographer and artist. She invented The Beatles moptop haircut during their early time in Hamburg: she met them at a club when she was dating Klaus Voormann (who later designed the cover to The Beatles' Revolver album), left him for Stuart Sutcliffe (at the time a member of the Beatles), and cut his hair in the familiar moptop, which John Lennon initially found laughable but eventually adopted, like the others. She also designed the Beatles' famous neckless suits.
