Chorus girls at the Palace Hip Theatre, circa 1923
Order an ImageSeattle's Palace Hip Theatre, "Where everybody goes," featured vaudeville acts and feature films. In this photo, taken in the early 1920s, eight chorus girls in feathered headdresses lift their lacy skirts to show a little more leg. Most women wore long skirts at this time, and it was quite daring to show so much leg.
