What does the black dahlia mean?

The Black Dahlia was the nickname of a woman named Elizabeth Short who was brutally murderd in California in the 40s. The case is extremely famous because the murder was particularly gruesome and also because the case was never solved. The nickname was given to her after she died after the movie "The Blue Dahlia" and because she had dyed black hair and often wore only black clothing

Reply:The Black Dhalia is the nickname of the dark haired movie star that was killed in the movie. It sounds disgusting. It says she was cut in half and disemboweled. Ugh!
Reply:A dahlia is a flower, which the "Black Dahlia" often wore in her hair. Elizabeth Short was nicknamed the "Black Dahlia" after her grisly murder in 1947 (although some sources say her friends originally called her that because of her dark hair and attire and a movie that came out that year titled The Blue Dahlia). The case had enormous press coverage, and she was most likely dubbed that by the press as a sort of catchy, dark, mysterious, sensational alias. There was this image of her "prowling" the streets of Hollywood, a strikingly beautiful young woman with jet-black hair and dark, sophisticated clothes, so ambitious to become a famous actress, only to be horribly slaughtered and mutilated. Well, I guess she's finally made it in Hollywood - several decades after her death. A postmortem success.
Reply:A black dahlia is a black flower. It also refers to the women Elizabeth Short who was brutally murdered. It might have been given to her because she had pale white skin and wore black to seduce men.
