Classic early 1960s one-piece bathing suit in bright lipstick red. Thick nylon with a bit of stretch hugs your curves and gives structure to the piece. Adjustable straps have two buttons on each shoulder to change the length. A double layer tummy panel gives extra control; the inner portion is sewn to the crotch, and the outer portion is hemmed along the hip line.
The bust has lined, slightly padded cups, and elastic along the under-bust. The cups likely have a rubber component, as they have started to crumble slightly at the top (inside the lining). This is not a major issue, and the bathing suit is still very wearable.
The fabric has some stretch to it, so the measurements below are approximate.
All our items are authentic vintage pieces, shipped from our studio in Montréal, Canada.
