In April 1957, Italian actress [[Sophia Loren]] was being welcomed to Hollywood by [[Paramount Pictures]] at a dinner party at Romanoff's restaurant in [[Beverly Hills]]. American actress [[Jayne Mansfield]] arrived last and went directly to Loren's table. Mansfield had previously engineered several stunts exposing her breasts. On this evening, she was seated between Loren and her dinner companion [[Clifton Webb]]. Braless and wearing a deeply plunging neckline, Mansfield at one point stood and purposefully leaned over the table, further exposing her breasts and her left nipple. Photographer [[Delmar Watson]] pictured Loren staring at Mansfield's breasts, and Joe Shere [[Jayne Mansfield-Sophia Loren photo|also recorded the incident]]. Shere's picture received international attention, and was published worldwide.<ref>{{cite web |title=Sophia vs Jayne: The OTHER Photos Behind That Sideways Glare |url=https://www.messynessychic.com/2013/04/01/sophia-vs-jayne-the-other-photos-behind-that-sideways-glare/ |website=Messy Nessy Chic |access-date=25 March 2019 |date=1 April 2013}}</ref>
