A Hollywood Stunner – Dolores Del Rio
Many people thought in those days that Dolores del Rio seemed to have the ideal body. She was a true body inspo, in the words of the kids today! Her body was described by the magazine Photoplay as “warmly curved” as well as “roundly turned,” which said that the Mexican star had the best figure among Hollywood celebrities. Dolores del Rio went on to become one of the most significant stars of the Golden Age of Mexican cinema.
The 1940s – The Star-Spangled Girl
The 1940s made a huge difference. Let’s also not neglect that during this decade, the Second World War took place. The global dispute has almost impacted everything, such as what people see as the ideal type of body. Broad shoulders and long limbs have become desirable. The “bullet” or “torpedo” bra was also introduced during this era. In general, at that time, women’s fashion was about the hourglass figure silhouettes with manly details: nipped-in high waist tops, padded shoulders, as well as down-to-the-knees A-line skirts.
