Carole Lombard Haltered Maillot

Backyard, Hollywood, California
1936 CL3610


Costume
   Halter strapped skirted maillot. Shoes.

   TL. Cleavage décolleté.

Actions
   Carole sits in a wicker pool chair (1).

Commentary
   Carol Lombard, never shy about exposing her body, sits poolside wearing the latest maillot. However, often when one fashion line advances another retards: The halter straps are progressive, but the skirt is regressive.
