    What a complicated way to dress. Glad fashion has evolved.

    Wow. The image is so clean and crisp. Looks like it was shot recently. Amazing to imagine that she had no idea what she'd see in her lifetime (WW1, etc).

    What an amazing photo of Evelyn Nesbit! Thank you, Library of Congress.

    Her name was Evelyn Nesbit. She was a chorus girl who had relationships with Stanford White, John Barrymore, & the rather unstable Mr. Thaw. During a performance one night, Thaw shot Stanford White in the face three times, killing him instantly. en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Evelyn_Nesbit

    No wonder she had affairs. She's quite attractive. I wonder what she's doing tomorrow night? Do you have her email address?
