Somthing for the Weekend - Barbarella (1968)

Welcome to 2019.  Its been a while since I posted although I've carried on replying to the various comments that have appeared over the last couple of months - thanks and keep them coming.

Anyway I'll try and pick up the pace a bit for this newest of years so lets start with something almost only half a spacesuit but full on sexy..... if Jane Fonda is your kind of thing...and why wouldn't she be!

What follows are some very nice images for just one of the outfits featured in the 1968 sci-fi classic Barbarella but after that I strongly recommend that you follow the link below to view the rest of her intergalactic wardrobe.  Its a fascinating collection of images and contains quite a few I hadn't seen before.




Once you've been over there and had a good look you might want to go watch the movie and get in on the fun.  It's kept me entertained for decades over repeated viewing and there really is nothing quite like it. 


Back Soon

  1. thx for Link, those picture are magnificent
    If someone wonders about those Stains in her helmet
    that is remains of liquid (mercury ?) that was in helmet double wall
    used in intro of that movie.

    for the costumes
    Jacques Fonteray and Paco Rabanne made great job
    to adapt Jean-Claude Forest comic art work

    2. Did you know that the immortal Maurice Binder,the genius behind almost all of the amazing James Bond title sequences,did the title sequence for Barbarella as well,not to mention a great many others besides.
      Oh,he also did The Mouse on the Moon,which is featured on this site also.
