Fashion’s Greatest Moment in…
BIKINIS!
1957: Brigitte Bardot wore a bikini in the film And God Created Women. This was the first time a bikini was ever wore in a motion picture and the whole world realized this was a must-have item for women.
1960: Itsy Bitsy Teeny Weenie Yellow Polkadot Bikini the song was released and everyone who did not buy a bikini 3 years ago, are suddenly rushing to the mall to get one.
1962: Ursula Andress wore a white bikini in the James Bond movie Dr. No. and the world is in love.
1964: The monokini (only the bottom of the bikini is worn) is introduced in Europe. Ew.
1983: Carrie Fisher wore the famous gold bikini in the Stars Wars film Return of the Jedi. It is still a fantasy to many men to this day.
2002: Once again a James Bond film debuts a famous bikini scene. Halle Berry wore the orange, belted bikini in Die Another Day and the world is “shaken and stirred”.
**In fashion posts to come look for more Greatest Moments in things such as the classic little black dress and men’s white dress shirts!
WONDERBRA anyone?
The Wonderbra was brought over to the U.S. in 1994 and it is safe to say they arrived in style. In Manhattan, the Wonderbra drove in armoured cars and limos, in Miami they rolled in pink Cadillacs, in San Franisco the bra arrived by private cable car and L.A. they flew in helicopters. Models, police, body and security guards unloaded the boxes (models? yea right.) while thousands of women threw confetti and screamed. They were sold at a rate of one bra every 15 seconds!
My favourite are the slogans from the Wonderbra (: Take a read..
- Best Headline: We can talk about this calmly. -L.A. Times
- Best Wonderbra slogan: Look me in the eyes and tell me that you love me.
- Best Celebrity Comment: I swear, even I get cleavage with them. -Kate Moss
My question: Why were they so wonderful?
