Cheesecake Babes

When I was younger, I remember wondering why women in older movies were always seen in very pointy bras. Why did women wear bras that were so different from today’s bras? What made these ladies want to make their breasts so pointed?

Reading up on the bullet bra, you will find that they became popular in the 1940s. The reason women wore them was because famous starlets like Marilyn Monroe, Jane Russell and Lana Turner began to wear them. Just like today, fashions catch and soon all the ladies were wearing bullet bras.

The bullet bra is a bra that has a cone like shape, created with circular stitching. Worn under sweaters in particular, these bras gave women a very distinct shape, which is where the term “sweater girl” comes from. These were the first push-up bras, designed to lift, enhance, and enlarge the appearance of a woman’s breasts.

There has been a certain level of controversy around bras over the decades. Apparently Howard Hughes had a special bra designed from Jane Russell in the movie The Outlaw to add more cleavage. This resulted in a censorship battle. In the 1940s, you had to advertise bras without even showing a picture of a woman wearing a bra, as it was considered too taboo. In the 1960s, we started seeing women burning their bras.

I’m curious as to whether the bullet bra will make a comeback as fashion moves away from the current pushed up, mountainous cleavage and unnaturally large breasts. Perhaps women will desire to have a different kind of shape, something that was considered feminine in times gone by.

I’ve found another gallery of bathtime fun with a vintage themed pinup girl playing in the bathtub with lots of bubbles. Martha’s Girls has lots of these kinds of photographs, featuring women made up like the pinups of vintage times, playing and having fun in front of the camera.

Look at how much fun she’s having! And how sexy is it that the bubbles stick out off her nipples and make her breasts look so much more like the bullet bra sweat bumpers you saw in the days of sweater girls.

I really like that Martha’s Girls offers high quality repro-vintage content that is unlike anything offered elsewhere. They capture the classic beauty and almost innocent fun of the cheesecake. It’s fantastic.

Just look at these seamed stockings! I think that black stockings are my favorite kind. I like the way they create a shadowed edge around the legs and emphasize their shape. The seams take this one step further. They look so enticing from behind!

This is brunette model Rachael from the website Pinup Wow! In this photo set, she plays the naughty waitress. While serving tea and cakes (in a spiderman mug, what a lucky man she is serving! heehee) she decides to do a little strip tease, and soon she’s in nothing but her knickers and helping herself to some icing from the cupcakes!

Pinup Wow is full of photo sets like this, and videos, featuring beautiful models having a fantastic time in front of the camera, stripping and teasing you. They are masterful in the art of the tease, and every set is carefully created in the look of vintage pinups. You’ll find so much lingerie, pantyhose, and seamed stockings, it’s overwhelming. They have an incredible amount of content due to daily updates that date back just about a year now.
