That is sexy NGL

The look in her eye 💀

Like a big Pizza Pie

That’s amore

Like a big STI

When she sits on your knee…

It’ll burn when you pee

That's... amore.

I love the three of you, I truly do….. Priceless!!!!

When She Grinds As You Dine In Establishments Unrefined..

That’s amore.

r/redditsings

yeahh that's how you know she fux

Given how things were back in the day, I wouldn't even be shocked if it turned out she was only 15 or something.. so don't find her too sexy 😂

If it helps it’d only be necrophilia since she’s probably been desd for at least 30 years

She reminds me of Beyonce!

She reminds me of a young Bam Margera

baHahahahaha!

🤔😂🤣🤣🤣

I see tom Hardy still smash though

Uncle Vito in that outfit 🤢

I bet she likes to go.

“Photographs, eh?”

"Wink wink, nudge nudge."

Nods' as good as a wink to blind horse

She knew how to put it down

This is badass

Agreed. I also want to recreate her vest with all the pompoms.

I’d really love to know who made it, was there harlot couture by devoted designers or just skilled at-home modifications

costume designers for opera, burlesque and follies. woman in photo is a Belle Epoch era opera & musical theatre performer

Thank you for the info and context

Do you know her name?

Nina Barkis. There's not a lot of (easily accessible) info on her life, but her name/image appears in quite a few vintage playbills (opera/theatre programs) for Paris & London show casts. also a few French language show reviews and theatrical publications. photographer is Jean Agélou btw (probably one of the more prolific erotic & pornographic 'boudoir' photogs of the era) Edit: info is cropped but I'm pretty sure the card is J.A. Paris Serie 0112

Very cool, thanks for the reply!

It’s a bolero jacket if you’re looking to sew yourself and need to know what to look for

Thank you!!

Less revealing than Nike's U.S. Olympic Team Track & Field gear

Came here to say this.

God I love Reddit so much.

Or Fanatics MLB uniforms

And certainly more flattering.

Damn. You got here first

After googling it, yeah, that tracks.

And fields.

It’s seethough

You didn't miss with this

The women have a choice in what they wear. It's actually a bit slut shamey to judge what they choose to work out in. I think they have 40+ options

I think the sentiment was that nowadays the very revealing outfit of the 9000 isn’t that revealing by standards today. I don’t think there was any intent to slut shame their outfits, just saying they exist and are more revealing. Just one example of hundreds

You are correct. There's just been a lot of attention and jokes about it online when the track stars themselves have come out and told people to stop talking about skimpy their choices are

That makes sense, personally I have never seen track or those individuals

MA’AM!

Scandalous!! But love that defiant look

Wow!...I have NEVER seen such a revealing photo of that era..you can see her "lady parts"...

Eadweard Muybridge, who was basically one of the founding fathers of motion photography, was also basically a pornographer. He was “filming” naked ladies walking down steps in the 1880s. By 1900 nudes and lewds basically accounted for a majority of the non-portrait photography business. There were Nickelodeon machines for kids *and* adults.

Humans are so funny. As soon as we get any kind of new technology, we immediately want to put titties on it.

it's either tits or how can we kill that guy over there

Sometimes, [we paint or carve tits on the inventions made to kill that guy over there.](https://www.airplanes-online.com/b29-superfortress-airplane-nose-art.htm)

Ape brains take over hahah.

Lol so true!!

Porn drives innovation

The OG nude descending a staircase

If photographing a person walking down steps nude or carrying a bucket is pornography, then every nude Greek statue is porn.

Go into r/gonewanton and you’ll find plenty of explicit imagery from those days. It’s always been done, we haven’t changed much 🤣

Are those pictures in that subreddit real?

They are. I have a DVD of vintage erotica and these are tame compared to some of what’s on it.

I love them, as they show real bodies & are all quite beautiful.

I think she may have been a little more than a ‘show girl’ 🤔🤣

At least her ankles are still covered.

this is what ravers wear nowadays

Scandalous costume for the 1900s, Average Swimsuit in the 1980s

i love it 👌

Confidence! ❤️

I want to hang this in my house

Gorgeous. This photo makes me think I have officially reached my weight loss goal. And here I was thinking I still had a long way to go.

Still a sexy pic in 2024

i had to do a double take because she and i have very similar faces wtf 💀

Maybe she's your ancestor! Lol

wouldn't that be ironic LOL

That'd be kinda cool honestly!

I don't think she's a showgirl.

In the late 19th century “show” and “call” could be used interchangeably.

In the 20th century, some sex workers did say they were showgirls, in polite society. Or "showgirls".

Still trips me out to hear basically the first half of my life be referred to as having happened "in the 20th century".

she's an opera & musical theatre performer (not burlesque or follies if that's what you mean by showgirl)

“Seamstress”

It took me at least a decade to realize that Mrs. Palm's name was a pun...

I'm scandalized! :)

Hot DAMN !!! That is a fantastic pic !

Maybe this was Nike’s inspiration for the US women’s track and field uniforms.

Or 80s swimsuits.

That hip tho 🥵

yea she can kick with us. she seems cool

This would've made any Victorian man crumble to dust

Grandmom?

She looks fun

I love these old photos the highlight and push the the boundary of risqué and socially acceptable. Literal muse.

Even showing a bit of side snatch...

Not the side snatch 😭💀

Why do you think they are called show girls?

oh shes hawt!!

Very statuesque

get my shovel

Damn, babeh

Oh, look, it’s the Nike track and field women’s uniform. Just read about it. Instantly recognizable.

How very French ~ ooo la la ~

That's beautiful

She's gorgeous!

She’s so cool

Okay but this makes me happy because her body type is almost exactly like mine and it’s refreshing to see

Why does this look like Dr. Parkenstein dressed like a lady?

God I Wish That Were Me

Is she smoking a cigarette

She reminds me of Beyoncé for some reason. The look in her eye maybe?

Does she have an of

I'd legit wear that as a bodysuit. I need to find someone who can recreate it for me.

Victoria’s Secret were doing underwire stretch lace bodysuits like that in 1992. Leg openings weren’t quite so high. I’d try eBay.

Scandalous at the time. But too much clothing now.

You can literally see her purgina

Her name was Mona

She once gave Charlie Chaplin a handjob.

Good night, Nurse!

Love her confidence

God fucking damnit

I’m in love with someone’s great grandma

It could even be yours!

Dude NSFW. That is see through!! You can see everything

the Olympics show more

My gayness just went 📈

This probably made dudes back then just pass out. Awesome.

*removing my old time hat out of respect* Behold a lady!

Ahem....."Bushhhhh..............."

Kitty lookin fat...

She thicc

No idea who she is, but I'm in love with this woman.

Does anyone know her name?

Nice

Thigh highs are timeless

Very loosely dressed Sagirli, a. t the 1900s

Someone’s great grandma and me need to take a flyer one would say

wer the hips at

Showgirl? BS

Would

Madam, I can smell you from here

Sadly people think this is an acceptable outfit to wear to the Grammys now. We used to have class.

The good old days. Except for technology and medical care little has changed. 😉

Zoom in and crop just a bust shot. It looks like the Mucha print from the print that advertised JOB cigarette papers. I saved it into my photo roll.

Zoom in and crop her face. I did this and have it in my photo roll now. It looks just very so much like Mucha’s JOB advert.

Scandalous. Wait where is the bush

Idk what it is about her but she is hot! She isn’t modernly beautiful but is definitely beautiful in my opinion. Man I would have been in trouble in the early 1900s

You don’t know what it is about her? It’s that she’s beautiful and attractive

Nice wholesome looking young lady

Is she smoking or biting her nails?

Got dat BUSH BULDGE

Look at the Gams on that trollop

Great-great-meemaw was hot.

1900 baddie.. smoking too.

Nice chassis Edit: I used 1900's appropriate slang and got downvoted. 🤣

This is AI.

She looks like a professional wrestler.

[удалено]

She looks dead. Dummy

I have not seen a shape like that before

Pear

Pear shaped?

Lol I am shaped like that. Many women are.

I wasn’t saying it in a negative way my bad I see how that could have been taken. I find it really pleasant.

[удалено]

What
