The dress Tina Turner wore in the "Playboy After Dark" appearance in 1969 was short and gold-colored, with rows of dangling, sparkling, identical embellishments that dance and sway and shake as Tina herself dances, and sways and shakes....
I want to describe the dress, but I can't, really. I wish I had a fashion writer to say it properly and tell us who the designer is, or did she just buy it off the rack...?
Movement was the key element in a design like that.
Watching the Playboy After Dark performance, one wonders if, when Tina took the dress off afterwards, in the dressing room, if maybe the dress just kept going, on its own....
