Susan Sarandon has posed semi-naked for a photography book based on 1940s style.

The actress, who turns 62 today, appears alongside Mary-Kate Olsen, Kate Hudson and Molly Sims in Hollywood Pinups by Timothy White.

Sarandon, who is snapped wearing only fishnet tights and a feather-boa, commented that she enjoyed the experience.

"What a treat to play in the world of the beautiful, perfect pinup fantasy," she said.

Earlier this year, the star admitted that she cannot stand to watch herself on screen.

"Most of the time when I watch a movie I'm in, it takes me about three times before I can see it because I'm so critical of myself," she said.
