Beach, France 1881 E188101 Costume Front-button bathing dress shortsleeved middie bloomered, with socks and shoes, hat. Face and arms, and a flash of calf. Actions A mother and daughter stand in the surf, with bathing wagons in the background (1). Commentary This costume is similar to the bathing dress shortsleeved bloomered. The dress has receded to a jacket, the bloomers have descended to cover the leg, and socks and shoes are still a requirement of respectability.
