Say What? Barbarella's Daughter Speaks

“Before that, nobody had seen on screen any space for women to be sexual or to own their sexuality.


“Before that, nobody had seen on screen any space for women to be sexual or to own their sexuality. The shock was that here were women doing what we’ve all seen men do. This was exploding the myth that if a woman was consummate in her sexuality, then she must be a slut.”


— Vanessa Vadim on mother Jane Fonda's starring role in the camp classic Barbarella, directed by her late father Roger Vadim. Besides being the daughter of celebrities, Vadim is an eco-advice columnist, a single mother, a documentary filmmaker and an organic farmer. She’s also a fan of glass dildos and cucumbers as eco-friendly sex toys.

A Fabby Halloween: Barbarella

Apparently, Barbarella was the star of many male fantasies back in the day.

Apparently, Barbarella was the star of many male fantasies back in the day. It's no wonder why — just look at the Queen of the Galaxy. Jane Fonda wowed audiences in the 1968 erotic science fiction Barbarella. In retrospect, the rinky dink special effects wowed me upon first viewing, as did Barbarella. With her teased blonde mane and Paco Rabanne designed wardrobe she embarked on wild intergalactic adventures, and love affairs, in style. Part fetish-wear, part space age chic, every girl should play the Queen of the Galaxy in her lifetime.

Special tip: when I was Barbarella I raided my local fabric store for metallic and sparkly fabrics. I sort of twisted and pinned them wherever they worked (and to give me coverage in sensitive areas). And don't forget about fun with plastic!

Look of the Day

Let's Halloween-ify the Look Book!

Ready or not, here Halloween comes!

Ready or not, here Halloween comes! My costume is almost complete — I'm still on the hunt for pink gloves and a wooden finger — who can guess who I'm going to be?! I thought it would be fun to share costumes of Halloween past in the Look Book. I have uploaded some of my faves over the years for you to chuckle at. There's Fab Barbarella on the left, a trio of sassy sailor girls in the middle, and none other than Betty Boop far right. I usually sex it up on Halloween but this year I'm going for a cooler, more demure character. Please upload your proudest Halloween costumes to the Look Book and if I feature you on Fab you'll get a special Halloween treat.

Help Halloween-ify the Look Book by submitting your past costumes and I might feature you on FabSugar!
