Iconic Swimsuit Moments In Film: From Marilyn Monroe to Halle Berry
RAQUEL WELCH – ONE MILLION YEARS B.C, 1966
Actress Raquel Welch rocketed to stardom in the mid-’60s, thanks to her standout performance in “Fantastic Voyage” and an exclusive contract with 20th Century Fox. However, it was her unforgettable appearance in the 1966 blockbuster “One Million Years B.C.” that truly catapulted her to fame.
In this film, she wore a bikini, and it instantly captured the public’s imagination. Raquel’s swimsuit, famously known as the tan ‘fur-kini,’ became a pop-culture sensation despite her limited dialogue in the film. It was not the most practical attire for any era, but it undeniably cemented her status as a timeless fashion icon, with her posters adorning countless walls over the years.
