In December 1960, the Dunes Hotel and Casino launched the revue, produced by Jack Cole. Her wardrobe for the shows featured a gold mesh dress with sequins to cover her nipples and pubic region.[1][2][3] The controversial sheer dress was referred to as "Jayne Mansfield and a few sequins".[4]
Mansfield received US$35,000.00 a week as her salary (US$380,906 in 2025 dollars[5]), which was the highest in her career.[6][7]
A live recording of the show was later released and distributed in 1962 by 20th Century Fox as a live album called Jayne Mansfield Busts Up Las Vegas.[8]
