URSULA ANDRESS – DR. NO, 1962

Ursula Andress, a seasoned actress since her 1954 debut, finally hit her stride in 1962 with a role in the iconic James Bond film, “Dr. No.” In this spy thriller, she portrayed the unforgettable Honey Ryder. What made her performance legendary was a certain scene that required her to don a bikini, a daring move in the conservative ’50s.

Ursula defied taboos by wearing a striking white two-piece bathing suit with a belt. Her fashion-forward choice caused ripples in the fashion industry, solidifying her status as a trendsetter. Decades later, that light-colored belted bikini still sizzles and remains an enduring symbol of cinematic allure.
