    My wife can remember how very pretty Bardot was before she was transformed into a blonde sex bomb.

    Wow, thanks for bringing back some great memories. Is there anyone around today who can compare with BB in her prime? I can’t think of any. What a unique and attractive woman, in so many ways. It isn’t just my imagination and fading memory, girls WERE sexier back then…

    I’m with Blowhard, Esq., but that might be because it was just the last one.

    As for my favorite, I’d have to say “A Very Private Affair” – sexy, understated, and elegant.

    Great collection, and fascinating to compare the different national styles too. Can’t choose a favorite from among so many riches!
