Marina Orschel
Marina Orschel (born July 14, 1937) is a former beauty queen and actress.[1] In 1956 she won Miss Germany and was 1st runner-up in the Miss Universe contest. At first her measurements were announced as 36-22-34 inches (91-56-86 cm), but she handed a measuring tape to Miss England and corrected them to 40-27-34 inches (102–69–86 cm).[2][3] Following these successes, she, Ingrid Goude, and Carol Morris were offered contracts by Universal Pictures, though Orschel's screen appearances are mainly in German films.[4]
