Polaire - A comedic actress, she became one of the major celebrities of her day (1895-1920) At a time when tightlacing among women was in vogue, she was famous for her tiny, corsetted waist, which was reported to have a circumference no greater than 14 inches. This accentuated her large bust, which was said to measure 38 inches
