The 2008 film Miss Pettigrew Lives for a Day staring Frances McDormond, Amy Adams and Shirley Henderson has a sequence in a corset salon where the models are parading around in highly stylised girdles and corsets.
Meanwhile, the girdle might not appear in the movie but Joan Crawford right displays what your Americana would wear in the late 1950s.
Another women appears in a panty-girdle but doesn't look half as good as the beautiful Debra Blee.
