This kinda reminds me of a TV show called "The Lost World" which was on network television. It was kind of like an grown-up version of The Land of the Lost. There was one episode where they encountered a giant bee hive, and for some reason the queen was in human form. When she first makes here appearance, she emerges from what I guess is a pool of honey completely nude. On TV there was a version where her hair covers her breasts. But there was a version where her hair was to the sides. I like to imagine like they shot it the first time with her hair covering, and then the director said "ok, let's do that again but have your tits showing." (it was probably the other way around, where they shot the exposed ones first and shot the second one for U.S. television).
On a side note, the actress was Simmone MacKinnon, who I think is known best to American audiences as a Baywatch Hawaii character. It was her only topless/nude scene ever.

I found the clips. I made a compare video and enhanced.
Some comments online say Simmone claimed the topless version is a fake. Some others comment that they remember seeing the original nude version on European TV.
TV shows back then would make a US version with no nudity and an international version with nudity to spice things up. Some were just editing jobs. Other had nude and clothed takes of the same shots.
HBO would do the same so they could sell non-nude version of shows to syndicated TV.
