These sketches were commissioned by Playboy and included in the October 1979 issue of Playboy Magazine (pages 225-227) in a feature titled “Hare Apparel.” Designers Giorgio di Sant’ Angelo, Bonnie August, Bill Blass, Oleg Cassini, Castelbajac, Edith Head, Fernando Sanchez, and Monika Tilley created their versions of the Playboy bunny costume. Playmate Candace Collins can be seen modeling some of the designs in the feature.
