Postcard photo of en:Marlene Dietrich promoting her performance at Las Vegas' Sahara hotel. The dress she's wearing was referred to as the "nude dress" because it gave the illusion that Dietrich was wearing a very thin gown and nothing underneath it. The engagement there was in 1953 and she was paid $30,000 a week, the equivalent of $279,000 (rounded) a week in 2018, a very substantial rate for a performer at the time, and now as well.
