Vichy Checks

Is a French girl wearing nothing but her glasses and a scrap of pink checked fabric sexy?
Bien sur. She's taking a page out of BB's book (Bridget Bardot) who put Vichy check fabric on the map.
Certainly every French bebe has worn scraps of red checked cloth to the beach or wherever...
