Debbie Reynolds 1953. Virgil Apger for MGM.OK, note the gorgeous swimsuit on Esther Williams. Then in the next photo of Ava Gardner one year later, the same outfit is called a 'costume' and made more to look like a photo taken in the boudoir with lingerie.

I am 'ashamed' to say I know Debbie Renolds best from her stint as Grace's mom on Will and Grace. She looks so young and pretty in that snap. And I am loving her swimsuit.
Thanks doll,

Fabulous pictures. The women are so classy looking and the swimsuits so gorgeous and striking. They have definitely stood the "test of time."
