Yes long time since we stirred up a bit of confusion.;~) I meant to say that the French do not have the word décolletage, only décollage, which comes from a different verb. That décolleté may be and adjective in French; it is a noun in Dutch and German.
f.i. "The waiter slipped and dropped olives into the lady's décolleté".
