Gigi Frost

(1950's - 1960's)

Hi,

I noticed that there wasn't a thread for this particular model. She seems to have been active in the late 1950's to early 1960's, a very shapely model which I think deserves a thread. (http://www.imdb.com/name/nm0296498/)

Here is a link to some photos I've found posted for her by krixxx:-

I don't have any photos in my collection for her but perhaps some people out there do.

Gigi Frost did nudie modeling in the 50s and 60s and even scenes in such exploitation gems as Naked Venus. Her real name is Lillian Faderman and she became an outspoken lesbian and activist for women’s rights.

Just a quick note that JRay has been kindly restoring his loops in his thread in the SC Video forum. One of those loops features Gigi Frost. It's a good loop which features FFN of Gigi, which is something you won't see in any of the photo shoots due to the era. Worth Checking out!:-

Subject: [spiderpool] Gigi Frost's shoot with Lloyd (*Long*)

Thanks Rowan!

Lillian Faderman posed under the name "Gigi Frost" in the mid- to late 1950s, and danced under the name "Mink Stole" (IIRC). She appears on the cover of "King" No. 3 and is also featured in an interior photo layout. She used the money from modeling and dancing, in part, to pay for her education, eventually earning a Ph.D. in English. She is considered a pioneer in lesbian and gay studies and now teaches literature and creative writing in California.

This excerpt is from her book:

Lillian Faderman, "Naked in the Promised Land" (Madison, WI: University of Wisconsin Press, 2003), pp. 125-128. ISBN 9780299200145

Amazon link:
<http://www.amazon.com/Naked-Promised-Land-Lillian-Faderman/dp/0299200140/ref=sr\_1_1?ie=UTF8&s=books&qid=1212377241&sr=8-1>

(This is a bit longish.) Omissions indicated with ellipses (. . . ) Typos mine, etc. :

""How'd you like to do a location shoot with...?" Andy [her modeling agent] mentioned the name of a famous silent film star.
. . .
"He likes to shoot at this big old house in the Hollywood Hills," Andy mentioned.
"Fifty bucks for a couple hours, and you don't even have to sign a release because he doesn't sell the pictures."
"That's Harry Houdini's old mansion," Crissy [another model] said.
"It's so much fun. I've been there lots of times with amateurs."
The Silent Film Star was no longer the thin, bespectacled goof of the silver screen. His weight had increased by probably half, most of it around his abdomen, which was bisected by a tight belt with a big silver buckle that displayed a cougar rearing up on its hind legs, its teeth chomping the air. He'd lost two fingers on his left hand; and on the thumb and index finger of the other he wore large silver and turquoise rings.
"Please to meet you, Gigi Frost." His zany smile hadn't changed, and he was still illustrious enough to make me mute with shyness.
. . .
We drove north into the hills, to an area of mansions as lavish as those I'd seen in Beverly Hills so long ago. But now I was in the presence of real Hollywood royalty; I'd come a huge distance.
The old Harry Houdini mansion -- if that's what it was -- looked like a gray stone castle, with turrets and moats and an expanse of
green that went on forever. The Silent Film Star took three cameras from the trunk of his long Cadillac and slung them over a shoulder.
"All set." I followed him up white marble stairs, gulping for air.
I'd never been inside such a place. . . .
A maid, her black uniform covered by a crisp white apron, answered the mellifluous chimes, greeting the Silent Film Star by name. "Would you like the west room again, sir?" she asked discreetly, never looking at me. I could see the high sheen of the black oak floors that bordered the dark, intricate oriental carpets. Such gorgeousness! A huge ivory statue of a unicorn stood on the floor next to the bright brass double-door entry.
"No, no, we're here for a shoot today," he said brusquely.
"Oh, of course," she whispered, glancing at his cameras now. "So sorry."
A man in a white suit and a girl in a tight black dress came out of nowhere and walked down a winding, highly polished staircase. "You can go round the house, if you like," the maid said, ushering us out
awkwardly, and now I knew for certain this was the kind of house I'd heard Olga [another model] and the others snicker about.
But the Silent Film Star had brought cameras. Surely it was all right. "I know the way," he said, clearly displeased with the maid.
"I just wanted to let you know we're here." He led me by the arm through the iron gate. "Dumb cluck," he grumbled. "Didn't she see my gear?"

In the grand, manicured garden, I slipped out of my sheath and my underwear while he readied the cameras. This I posed, kissing mossy iron satyrs that leered hungrily and reached with muscled arms. I embraced nymphs, naked like me, that simpered with concrete mouths. I sprawled beneath a fountain that spouted from the big marble lips of four turbaned giants. I could smell gardenias everywhere, and the sun shone, strong and seductive on my bare skin. How I loved the grandeur of the place! I worked hard for him, anxious to please, and he shot alternately with each of his three cameras [I'm guessing one color, one B&W, and one 3-D]. But images of what I'd seen in the house kept playing in my mind. What had the maid thought? . . .

At one point in the session the Silent Film Star lifted my arm for a pose, and his hand brushed against my breast -- an accident maybe, but I remembered Sid [previous bad encounter] and shifted quickly. "I can do it," I cried, taking the pose he wanted. He frowned. But overall he seemed pleased with my work. "Very artistic," he said, smiling from time to time at a pose I'd strike and snapping away. He'd taken his suit jacket off, and I could see the wet rings of perspiration on the underarms of his shirt. "That's fifteen rolls," he said, wrapping up after three hours.

"This is an incredible setting," I ventured, once dressed. I hadn't dared to utter much before other than "Is this pose all right?" "Yeah, this house has quite a history," he said. "Would you like to see some more of it? I can give you the Cook's tour." Was it really Harry Houdini's mansion? I could imagine the star-studded parties -- the Pola Negris and Clara Bows and Mabel Normands in lavish, flowing gowns who'd once paraded in its romantic opulence.

He led me through the glass door that opened onto the marble patio, and he walked in front of me up the winding staircase. The maid who'd offended him wasn't in sight. "Would you look at this tapestry." He pointed to a carpet that covered most of the wall at the head of the stairs. Through its muted colors I could make out horses and bare-chested riders with shields who were lifting up or treading down naked, terrified women. "Seventeenth-century French," he pronounced, like an art connoisseur.

"This is my favorite room." He put his hand on the small of my back familiarly, and I let myself be steered through a door of ornately carved black wood into a chamber of mirrored walls, shiny mahogany bedposts, a dark fur bedspread."

She then describes how the "Silent Film Star" grabbed her, made an awkward pass and offered to 'triple her shoot fee' with an additional $150, which she turned down and he ultimately drove her back into town in silence.

There's more in the book that sheds light on how photo shoots worked in the 50s, including some of its seamier aspects. Also of value to anyone interested in the memoirs of a girl growing up poor, Jewish, and lesbian in L.A. during the 40s and 50s.

Regards,

Bachelorstyle60s

Having just recently discovered this fascinating beauty, I searched VEF and found 6 clips from her nude modeling days, and I'll post them all here in the next few days.

And hope that Lillian Faderman doesn't mind
