These dancers are from the Moulin Rouge, circa late 1950s and the familiar photos are very nice, but if you want to see them in action in these very costumes in an extended performance get the DVD of "Tabarin" a French film from 1958. (Don't ask me to explain why the Moulin Rouge dancers are in a film entitled Tabarin.) The DVD is generally available on French EBay. If you are in the US, you'll need a worldwide or multi-region DVD player to play it, however.
The images, originally from Life magazine, were found at:
