EDITORS COMMENTS
In this photograph, taken in 1964, we are transported back to the vibrant world of burlesque in New York City. Stylist John Fonda meticulously puts the final touches on The Unisphere Hairdo, a stunning creation inspired by the official symbol of the 1964 NY Worlds Fair. Ecstasy, a featured stripper in the Broadway play "This Was Burlesque" proudly showcases this unique hairstyle that perfectly captures the spirit of an era defined by its eccentricity. The image exudes a sense of nostalgia as it encapsulates both historic and cultural elements from mid-20th century America. The monochromatic setting adds to its timeless appeal, allowing us to appreciate every intricate detail of Fonda's work. As he carefully arranges each strand with precision and flair, one cannot help but marvel at his artistry. Surrounded by vintage props and costumes typical of that period, our attention is drawn towards Ecstasy's blonde tresses styled into an elaborate hair sculpture resembling the iconic Unisphere structure. This whimsical fusion between fashion and architecture speaks volumes about the creative energy pulsating through New York City during those years. Through this photograph captured by Underwood Archives for Universal Images Group (UIG), we catch a glimpse into a world where actors and actresses pushed boundaries with their performances while stylists like John Fonda transformed hair into works of art. It serves as a reminder that even within unconventional realms such as burlesque, beauty can be found in unexpected
