What strikes me despite being seemingly all covered up, de-accentuating the female form, is that this era was an era of play - of gesture - of implication. Check out the glamour within the plunging back line and the way of the starlet robe!
Definitely brings to mind some ideas on teasing your audience and also, if nothing else, capturing that mature spirit we said we were looking for.
Nowadays, there is often confusion between sexuality and sensuality.
What do you think about the parallels one might draw between sensuality, gesture/implied movement, and a "mature" stage persona?
