For the love of Opera Gloves

The opera glove has been recognized for well over a century as one of the foremost symbols of feminine elegance and sensuality. The very sight of a kidskin, suede, satin or lame glove embracing the hand and arm of a woman sends a powerful conscious and subconscious signal that the wearer is a woman of style, elegance, passion, power and sexuality. Ever since over-the-elbow gloves were first widely worn by women during the Regency and Napoleonic era at the beginning of the 19th century, and especially since "The Divine Sarah", Sarah Bernhardt, introduced the mousquetaire to America in the 1870s, the opera glove, on the arms of beautiful women, has been reducing male viewers to puddles of mush.



With the kind assistance of the webmasters of many of the Web's premier sites devoted to the classic actresses of Hollywood - you will find links to their sites on my galleries and links pages - I have amassed a collection of tens of thousands of images of such luminaries as Audrey Hepburn, Gina Lollobrigida, Marilyn Monroe, Vivien Leigh, Jayne Mansfield, Natalie Wood, Joan Collins, Ava Gardner, Grace Kelly, Rita Hayworth, Morgan Fairchild, Loni Anderson, Pamela Anderson Lee, Shannen Doherty, Deborah Duchene, Phoebe Cates, Famke Janssen, Kate Winslett, Kay Kendall, Carmen Electra, Samantha Fox, Billie Burke, Yvonne De Carlo, Carole Landis, Gypsy Rose Lee, Jane Wyman, Barbara Stanwyck, Dorothy Lamour, Paulette Goddard, Stephanie Beacham, and many, many others wearing - what else? - opera gloves and other long gloves! You will also find extensive historical, etiquette and collecting information, as well as links to the world's leading manufacturers and vendors of gloves.
