Raquel Welch Poncho and Holster-kini

Hollywood Pool
1971 RW197110

Costume
   Sideless poncho and leather holster culotte. Gun. A loop of leather around the lower thigh secures the bottom of the holster.

   TML. Side cleavage.

Actions
   Raquel draws aside her poncho with one hand (1), fingers her gun (2), draws her weapon (3), and points it at you (4).

Commentary
   Last year Welch strutted in a fetish "bikini" (RW197010); this year she again demonstrates how to creatively expand the parameters of the bikini. The poncho covers the answer to the question as to whether the gun belt is only a belt or if it part of a brief. Raquel is clearly topless under the poncho, but controls any exposures. But as the 1970s continue the topless challanges continue as well (RW197610).
