Beach, Saint-Tropez, France 1958 BB5810 Costume Underwire center tie bandeau and sidetie culotte. TML. Excessive cleavage. Bellage is N-4 or possibly N-5. Actions Bridget Bardot talks to Sacha Distel in an unnamed movie in a very brief bikini, especially for 1958 (1). Probably this soutien gorge has straps, and BB is certainly taking a chance not using them. The leanover kiss with the nude statue (2) is possibly the same bikini, again with sideties and the center tie up. A mixture of cleavage and shadow mystify Bardot's right breast, and one wonders if it is topless like the statue, or clasped in the construction. Commentary This extremely promiscuous costume, excessive bellage, strapless bra (not really a bandeau) all help establish Bardot as an international sex kitten. Playing with a nude statue when almost nude doesn't hurt either. Source Photo credit two shot is Burton Glinn - Magnum / Life.
