Actress Anouk Aimée in 'Lola' (1961). She cuts a striking figure in a seductive ensemble. The outfit features an intricately detailed lace corset, a feather boa draped around her shoulders, and a tall top hat, which she adjusts with a steady hand. Her expression is one of poise and confidence, with slightly parted lips and an intense gaze. Soft waves in her hair complete the overall glamorous and theatrical look. Photo: Euro-International Films.
