Veronica Lake was 4'11"!! It's like Salma Hayek - hourglass and teeeeeny. Also, the measurements back then were always taken when the women were in their support garments and girdles, not on a girdle-free waist as measurements are taken now a-days. <br /><br />Some of them had figures comparable to the super models of the 80's and 90's... think Cindy Crawford. Even in the earlier 90's, runway models' sample sizes were a size 8. Yes, size 8. Really.<br /><br />Anyways, very interesting post with very interesting comments!!<br /><br />xxo.<br />rococovintage.blogspot.com{ Rococo Vintage } fashion, fairy tales, + gin gimletshttps://www.blogger.com/profile/15394043646391018504noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31827435.post-89469659910830047932010-03-30T12:52:56.967-07:002010-03-30T12:52:56.967-07:00Your blog is fantastic!

Nowadays, it doesn't matter that much, and even if it did, the women that are considered 'bombshell figure' as it was said, are REALLY TALL!<br />The trick in most of this lovely women bodies was that although they weren't so tal as women are now, they had really long legs, and don't forget, their bodies came from a long long history of encorsetted women. Women bodies nowadays are free from those, have been, for a long time, so their skeleton form isn't 'used to' the figure that corsettes give.P.

They all look femininely figured unlike many models today who look grossly like sticks. Maybe it's their heights? Models today are getting scarily tall.Celinahttps://www.blogger.com/profile/02982193635756003439noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-31827435.post-79336419317766101772010-03-29T19:07:16.935-07:002010-03-29T19:07:16.935-07:00wow. you're right... all of them look healthy ...wow. you're right... all of them look healthy and NORMAL... love these. i've never made such a comparison to models today.Krislynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/14823165015881151106noreply@blogger.com
