I heard somewhere a long time ago that Porter Wagner made her dress to suppress her bounty. Once she got out on her own, showing her figure must have added to her success, so maybe she decided to keep going with what worked.

Also, I saw her interviewed, also don't remember by who or when, but she said when she was a little girl she was riding through town with an older sister. She saw some streetwalkers all decked out in Dolly style. She asked who those beautiful women were. Trash! she was told. She responded that she wanted to be trash when she grew up.

She sure didn't get her wish. She was the farthest from trash of any celebrity, ever, I do believe.
