YOUR TIME MACHINE TO THE PAST!
BOOK REVIEW

The fourth and final of a series of four picture
books, compiled from the archives of the classic girlie magazines
"Fiesta" and "Knave," which celebrate an age when glamour
photography strove more for artistic ideals and risque titillation than the
sexually explicit top-shelf titles of today.
Statuesque models of the 1950s adopted the poses of Greek goddesses, in
elaborately styled sets, while their equivalents from the Swinging Sixties
displayed a more playful, almost naive innocence. A decade later, the pin-ups of
the 1970s, invariably shot in luscious colour and sumptuous sets, offered a more
seductive appeal, while the glamour girls of the 1980s became more sexually
suggestive in their poses and attire - or lack of it.
The bevy of beauties that graces the pages of these four books illustrates the
changing faces - and bodies - of the glamour model over four decades, from the
demure to the titillating, the seductive to the steamy, the erotic to the
raunchy.
