A reader has requested more posts about garments from the 1930s and 40s. Today, a look at daytime dresses and suits from Parisian designers in the spring of 1930. You can see in these examples that the dropped waist of the 20s is moving back to the natural waistline of the 30s. Are you as much in love as I am with these?
More swimsuit heaven, all from 1930.
Harlequin with diamonds.
Angles and curves and....
...a matching cape with orbs!
This one comes with a matching sleeveless jacket.
Probably the closest to what I consider to be a typical 1930s swimsuit, but far from boring!
When I ask you to think about what a swimsuit from the 1930s looks like, you probably picture a suit in boring black, right? Me too. That's why these photos from 1930 blew me out of the water (ha ha, no pun intended!). Today, part 1 of 1930 swimsuit heaven. Take note of the beach shoes and sandals, as well as the swim caps.
My favorite comes with a matching cape!
Diamonds are a girl's best friend!
This one has an op-art feel. Check out how the black strap extends into the suit.
Low cut!
This one has a squid or octopus type design on the front....
...that extends to the back.
