   TL.

Actions
   Bow holds her boxing gloves up by her head (1). She shoots a bow and arrow (2). Her satin boxing tank and shorts are simiar to her maillot exposures, and with her gloves ready for a knockout (3, 4).

Commentary
   Just what the trim is doing on the front of this skirted maillot is uncertain, but the ribs on the skirt radiate from her midsection. Note how the the boxing outfit matches her exposure silhouette.
