I know nothing about fashion or sewing, but whenever I see a picture of Bettie Page on here, it always seems like her swimsuits and other outfits are often way more modern-looking and flattering for her figure compared to photos I see of most other pinup models from the same era and I assume that's because she designed and sewed much of her own wardrobe.

A lot of her life before and after her model career was difficult- from being molested by her father as a child, to missing out on a lot of the money that was generated from the image she created, to struggles with mental illness later in life, but she was a talented and influential woman.

I’d definitely take her out for a hamburger sandwich and some French fried potatoes

For that era, that is some impressive chain-link fence.

Bettie Page remains, in my eyes, to be the most beautiful woman ever to walk this Earth!
