1950s Paper Dolls
de bene esse: literally, of well-being, morally acceptable but subject to future validation or exception
In
the cookie-cutter conservative era of the 1950s, even good, wholesome
girls were undressing Elvis, and not just in their minds.
Young women across America indulged their fashion-fueled fantasies with
little paper playmates of the rock-’n'-roll king, the latest subject
from a thriving paper-doll industry that knew its audience well.
