1944 Bathing Beauties

I recently had a request to share more swimwear information and images, so ask and you shall receive. This picture of bathing beauties dates to 1944. They look like they could be sisters, with the exception of the gal on the left. Her attention is somewhere else in the picture, perhaps it's her too small shoes, or maybe she's thinking about calling her beautician to change her hair color. I do like her skirted swimsuit though with the scallop hemline edge. And I do wish someone could teach me how to do pin curls like that so I could wear flowers in my hair.

We'll be sharing more vintage swimwear information and images in this coming year and hope you follow along with us. You can also sign up for our monthly newsletter here.
