Runway Model A Failed Attempt

Lejaby showroom interior
1990 LE9041

Costume
   Lejaby cyan underwire halter and rolldown v-kini. Sunglasses. Lipstick.

   TML.

Actions
   The runway model previewing the 1990-1991 season poses on the showroom floor, her bottoms fully up and covering her lower belly (1).

Commentary
   Given that leading designers have five years experience with de roulè manipulations, this two-part design misses the point. Rather than a single piece of fabric which can be continuously adjusted, this culotte features a translucent extension sewn above a high hemmed waistline. This constrains the adjustment of exposure to the region above the basic culotte, but does not invite extensive adjustment.
   Foundations have also made a resurgence, as seen in this underwire halter.
