Does anybody know.....the photo which embarassed Elaine....did the photo capture her bare skin or just a shadow through her clothes?, or am I being too literal?

My understanding was that her low cut top revealed more than she wanted.

HERE IS WHAT HAS BEEN SAID SO FAR...

-----

When Kramer took Elaine's photograph, he gave her a button down shirt to wear. Unfortunately one of the buttons was not buttoned. It was through this openning that Elaine's nipple was exposed. True, Elaine would have had to have been positioned in a certain way for the right part to have been exposed, but this is what had to have happened.

Comments, questions, enquiries.

This is entirely plausible. When I was a mere youth, a buddy and I were sneaking peeks at the adult magazines in the local drug store. One of the magazines claimed to have a photo of Farrah's nipple (this was the late 70s). To our amazement, we were big Charlie's Angels fans, it was true. She was wearing a button down shirt - sans support garments. As she turned to wave to the paparazzi, the right nipple poked through an opening between two buttons in the shirt and was clearly visible in the photograph.

i agree, there was definite exposure. remember when elaine's boyfriend came to her office? he was angry about the christmas card he had just received. they ended up fighting and her parting comment to him was something about the nipple of his soul being exposed.

I thought it was a combination of the buttons on her blouse and the angle Kramer used in shooting the picture. Recall that it wasn't her whole breast (which it would be if it were due to a low-cut dress); it was just her nipple.

Was the motivation for this episode ever talked about by the cast or writers? There was an episode where Julia slips a nip for real, and I wondered if that inspired this episode?
