Another time, another place when women could sport a little (or in Silvana's case, a lot...) of armpit hair which wasn't uncommon in Italy (or Europe) in the 1950s/60s. Yes, this blog covers everything. Ah!

Superstar Sophia Loren wasn't shy about her hairy armpits

Silvana Mangano, star of ULYSSES and BARABBAS

Maria was in a couple of PEPLUM films including GODDESS OF LOVE
