This is the only other image in the thread with her in that outfit with that background...

I needed to dig up a 1978 episode of Fantasy Island because an actress whose post I'm working on appeared in the segment entitled, "The Island of Lost Women" (the story is about a sailor, played by the late Robert Morse, who has a wish of spending time on an island filled with beautiful women), and the queen of this tribe of "Amazons" was played by a striking woman. I didn't recognize her, but whaddaya know... she turned out to be the sensational Cyd Charisse.

Ms. Charisse (the last name came from the dance teacher she married when aged seventeen) was fifty-six-years-old here, and still commanded double-takes from humans in her vicinity. In this show, the Texan was reunited (of sorts) with series star Ricardo Montalban (she played his fiancée in 1947's Fiesta), although in the Fantasy Island episode, they did not share a scene together.

The sailor (the always watchable Robert Morse is seen in the first two photos) thinks he has it made when told he can
have as many brides as he wants... but "El Cyd" (as the queen was rumored to be nicknamed) has a surprise for him.
The lady still had those legs, as hinted at in the first photo.
