Bettie Page, one of the most famous US pin-up models of the 1950s, has died in Los Angeles, aged 85.
Her provocative poses – often in bikinis – made her a cult figure and she was one of the first models to appear in Playboy magazine.
She “captured the imagination of a generation with her free spirit and unabashed sensuality”, her agent said.
Bettie Page was credited with helping to pave the way for the sexual revolution of the 1960s. (bbc news)
