Call Of The Wild: Part Two

I thought it would be fun to have another look at our classic stars as they take another walk on the wild side. Dig out your pith helmet and your favorite leopard print attire so we can dive in. Also, please take the time to participate in my photo caption contest at the end.

*No animals were harmed in the making of this post.

Anita Page has it all here! Hat, fur, animal print and driving gloves. I think this outfit needed a turkey feather or two though.

Gene Tierney. Nothing says a beautiful spring day like five yards of leopard, bare feet and a couple of oddly placed flower pins.

Ingrid Bergman looks thrilled to be wearing this coat. Either that or she was just shown a review of "Arch of Triumph"!

I'm sure we've all gone for a stroll wearing flip flops, a tiny bikini and a leopard skin coat so Jayne Mansfield looks perfectly normal here while out with her son. Mickey Jr.

Martha Hyer is on the prowl. Borrowing Jayne Mansfield's pants is never a good idea! 

Paulette Goddard is just too sweet to have been punked this way! 

Maria Montez, even with that gorgeous face and body can't save this one. I'm not sure where to start but what's going on with her boobs, that backdrop and don't get me started on the fact that her dress appears to be made of rubber that's starting to melt away from her torso. 

Barbara Stanwyck is working that muff but that hat is making my scalp itch!

Claudette Colbert, the inspiration for "Clan of the Cave Bear"!  I have no doubt she could survive out in the wild for a few days before crying out for a martini cart and a fresh pair of footies!

Carole Lombard get's the award for most creative use of leopard print! I'm sure the cameraman is yelling at her to stop looking so sexy here.  This is how you work leopard sleeves!

Elizabeth Taylor, showing us why she had six husbands and seven marriages!  

Joan Davis. I think we can all agree that this hideous outfit was the inspiration for Snuggies! No amount of pouty lips and far off looks is going to make this get up look sexy. Well, perhaps a belt and a veil.

Connie Francis was given some catnip then told to do something, I'm not sure what.  She's like Julie Newmar Lite!  If I have to wear that to find out where the boys are, I'll pass!

The winner of my first caption contest is Rich with They still talk about the guest of honor at the AnthroCon of 1935..  


Thanks everyone who participated here and on Twitter.
Well, that's all of the animal print I can take for one day! Thanks for stopping by everyone and please leave your opinion on these outfits.
