To: pml1@yahoogroups.com From: Mark Tomlonson Date: Fri, 18 May 2007 02:42:26 -0000 Subject: [PML1] CC: Giuliana Marino In Giuliana Marino's centerfold (April 2007) she's asking us if we want her to change her mind about putting on the negligee. I'm gonna vote "yes" on this one. I'm not a big fan of French Provincial. Playboy has used that style several times, but the results have been tepid, at best. Here, it works. Odd that in a time when texture and color control seem to be lost, these delicate shades of white add to rather than detract from the centerfold's effect. But we're not furniture shopping. There is much to like about Giuliana and this photograph shows it all very well. She wears a completely unforced expression that could dissolve into laughter or expand into a delightful suggestion. The pose makes it look like her legs go on forever. A guy could get lost in them and never be found. Then we get to her breasts and it's the "But wait, there's more!" of her figure. Her barely-worn negligee is the perfect accent in color and placement. What really stands out here is the European, rather than Californian sensibility. This isn't silicon and bleach, this is a beautiful woman given a centerfold that lets her look great.
