There are more pix of Suzy out there than there are of Dorian, probably mostly because of her movie career but perhaps also because Dorian's decline made her a bit of a persona non grata.

The model in this Chanel ad is Millie Perkins. She was a popular teen model before gaining world renown as an actress for her role as Anne Frank in the 1959 film "The Diary of Anne Frank".

^ Re: #8- That Jantzen ad is wonderful, what a slice of history, the way people were presented...That was right about when Jantzen started what became the Miss USA Pageant to counter the Miss America stodgy image- the swimsuit emphasis (as opposed to the talent and so on) were a big scandal back then!! :rolleyes: :lol:
