Young Brunette Girl With A Navel Piercing And Full Natural Breasts Undresses Her White Transparent Babydoll Negligee And Panties Outside On The Terrace

The name was popularized by the 1956 movie Baby Doll starring Carroll Baker in the title role as a 19-year-old nymphet, which essentially marked the beginning of the enduring popularity of the style for adults.
Babydolls became a prominent part of the "kinderwhore" look during the early-to-mid-1990s due to the popularity of riot Grrrl and grunge performers like Courtney Love and Kat Bjelland.
