A black sequin net over nude silk chiffon halter leotard with extensive beading and rhine- stone embellishment. Midler wore this leotard during per- formances of her historic 1975, Clams On The Half Shell Revue at the Minskoff theater on Broadway. "'Clams On The Half Shell' was designed by Tony Walton, who did a brilliant job on both sets and costumes. His set for King Kong blew people away, and was copied by people who should have known better. The extraordinary Lionel Hampton was also featured, and every night I watched from the wings as he stopped the show with 'Flying Home.' How could I follow that?" - Bette Categories: Bette Midler
