I suppose these were meant for genteel party gatherings. I'll bet that one made up as a craps table wasn't offered - have you ever been around a craps table when the shooter is on a hot streak?

Hopefully each skirt comes with a free supply of diapers! I know I wouldn't last a full round, of whatever game we may be playing.

And when you badly need to hit the W.C., you find your legs have "fallen asleep," which adds greatly to the fun for everyone.

Jessica's point is probably why they didn't try this with Monopoly.

Suitable for strip poker, however...

That top one reminds me so much of the perfectly elegant model in "Funny Face" (1957) before he latched onto Hepburn, you know, the one who read comic books between poses.
I'm not sure of the state of technology for flexible/sheet magnets at that time, but they could have sewn in small bar magnets and made the playing pieces polished steel so she could walk around with a half-finished game if she needed an intermission.
Did they mean to redefine what it meant for a guy to get lucky at a party?

Must not say it... Must not say it... I'd rather play with what's underneath the skirt.

At least they had pockets!
