Not Exotic enough, Ernie. I appreciate the effort, but the unspecific-ness of this barrage of internet clip art is what the Exotica girl is exactly NOT. The Exotica girl I am looking for is more rare, EXOTIC, alien -just like true Tiki. Murph, that is amazing, I always wondered what happened to all the other photos from that Primitiva session! Here we have at least one. And in this one she looks cold! :) Of all the posts, Murph has got the most hits. The Kahiki Mystery girls are in, also. Betty page is primarily a pin up girl, almost a genre into herself, but the pictures from this session do fit into the Exotica genre--which does not mean that ALL babes in leopard suits are automatically Exotica girls! TK: A.) I never claimed the Kahiki waitresses on page 97 were Exotica girls, and B.), what the frig does Penelope Cruz have to do with the Exotica genre? Folks this is NOT a post about HOT babes that have brown hair and eyes, it is about a pop culture icon that had its heyday in the 50s/60s, partly fueled as I said by Pacific war veterans, partly by American business travelers, and supported by an older movie tradition. MODERN Exotica girls have to be somehow paying homage to that to qualify. |
