Rosie's Fantasy Females
Growing up in the Seventies was a good time for fashion. I don't
mean general womens fashion, although some of it was okay. No, I
mean what is now considered 'fetish' fashion, as worn by women in
sci-fi and action adventure series made in the late Sixties and
Seventies, and what formed a large proportion of my viewing as a
child interested in those genres.
Consequently, you couldn't help - well, I couldn't! - noticing
the fashions worn by some of these leggy ladies - and fancying it
rotten! Here are just a few of my favourites fantasy females,
click on the picture for a larger image - more pictures soon!
Lynda Carter - Wonder Woman (probably my all-time
favourite!)
As I said earlier, she was just sooooo sexy in that tight
costume - and you could see why she'd been a former Miss
World contestant with a figure like hers! If only I could
have a figure like that ... |

Jane Fonda - Barbarella
With a change of outfit every twenty minutes or so -
depending on when it got ripped to shreds or she got
bedded by the next hunk on the planet - Jane showed off
her ample curves from start to finish, especially in the
opening zero gravity striptease... And in some scenes you
got the equally attractive Anita Pallenberg as the evil
Queen - lovely! |

Louise Jameson - Leela (from Doctor Who)
Louise had a nice figure beautifully shown off in her
warrior skin costume. As she put it, "if you're wear
a leather leotard and you're on after the football
results, becoming a sex symbol is inevitable!" Too
right! Louise is a lovely women right to this day, and
I'm very pleased to have met her at conventions |

Catherine Schell - Maya (from Space:1999)
It's only a shame that after the first episode she was in
Maya hardly wore this outfit again, changing into her
Moonbase Alpha uniform for the duration of the series -
and while that had a short skirt and boots, it didn't
compare. But while on her home planet of Psychon with her
father, she wore this lovely outfit that did not fail to
make an impression on me - lovely! |

Nicola Bryant - Peri (from Doctor Who)
As a fan of the show - it's my favourite! - the leggy
assistants that changed every so often didn't come much
more leggy and curvy than Nicola as Peri. And they
started her wardrobe as they meant to go on - firstly a
pink bikini in her debut story and then often leotards
and shorts. These certainly helped display Nicola's ample
charms, and proved that this very feminine figure wasn't
dead even in the mid Eighties. Like Louise, I've met
Nicola and she's just as lovely now as she was then |

The Moonbase Girls (from U.F.O.)
Unlike Space:1999 which came after it, U.F.O. had the
best fashions of the future as far as I'm concerned. Pure
sex! In their slinky convertable costumes, these lovely
girls helped defend the Earth from the Aliens intent on
harvesting organs for their own dying race. They needn't
bother harvesting these girls! Absolutely stunning in
their silver costumes and purple wigs with eye makeup to
match, if this is what the future was supposed to be
like, show me to it! For costume design, Sylvia Anderson
should have got an Oscar! |
