Published August 2005.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cp class=\"lead\"\u003ePublished in Playboy in August 2005, Our Diora is a golden, cinematic nude of actress Diora Baird, photographed by Odette Sugerman in an opulent Pasadena mansion. Conceived as an homage to the French film \u003cem\u003eBelle de Jour\u003c\/em\u003e, the image casts Baird in a world of gilt furniture, satin, mirrors, and candlelight, with the poise and theatrical glamour of classic European cinema.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003eBaird was a working actress when she posed for the magazine, known for film and television work including \u003cem\u003eWedding Crashers\u003c\/em\u003e. Behind the camera was Odette Sugerman, one of the few women photographers represented in the collection. British and raised on Vancouver Island, Sugerman spent a decade as a hairdresser before teaching herself photography, bringing a refined, sensual eye to this first major Playboy assignment. Baird's resemblance to a young Catherine Deneuve gave the pictorial its visual key.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003eBaird described her fascination with Deneuve simply:\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cblockquote class=\"pullquote\"\u003eI got addicted to her movies and wanted to be like her.\u003c\/blockquote\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003eIn Our Diora, Baird is posed across an ornate gilded chair before a gold-framed mirror, an open ivory shirt falling from her shoulders, black-banded stockings and heels catching the light. The reflection doubles the scene, turning the room into a chamber of satin, gilt, and honeyed shadow. The whole frame feels less like a studio nude than a still from a private European film.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003ePhotographed by Sugerman, modeled by Baird, and preserved within the Playboy Legacy Collection, the work is part of the forty-eight-print archival edition released for Playboy's 50th anniversary.\u003c\/p\u003e\n\n  \u003ch3\u003eCollection Note\u003c\/h3\u003e\n\n  \u003cp\u003eThe Playboy Legacy Collection was released in 2007 for the magazine's 50th anniversary as a forty-eight-print archival edition curated under the direction of Hugh Hefner.
