The superb international burlesque star, performance artist and illusionist Vicky Butterfly @mlle_vicky_butterfly wearing an amazing 1920s-inspired gothic web robe.
Photographed in 2013 by Maria S. Varela @mariasvarelaphoto backstage at a theater in Germany after a performance of Vicky Butterfly’s “A Spider’s Kiss”.
This outstanding photo has been occasionally mentioned online as a 1920s image of Louise Brooks.
In 2016 Vicky Butterfly posted an informative video discussing Louise Brooks and how she inspired her.

This picture is an indictment of gang rule in America and of the callous indifference of the government to this constantly increasing menace to our safety and our liberty. Every incident in this picture is the reproduction of the actual occurrence, and the purpose of this picture is to demand the government: "What are you going to do about it?"
Scarface (1932) | dir. Howard Hawks

When asked whether Buster in real life resembled the “sweet and innocent” characters he played, Anita Page replied, “Yes, for the most part. I mean…he was always very sweet to me. I don’t know how innocent he was, but very nice…always.”
