Ms. Waterskis Deux-pieces

France
1935 FV3510


Costume
   Bra and panty culotte deux-pièces.

   TML. Bellage.

Actions
   This very exposed lady waterskis in her deux-pièces, demonstrating proficency over risk (1).

Commentary
   Claimed to be the first "bikini" ever show in Vogue, this deux-pièces is trendy and ahead of its time. With its legline angling slightly up from the crotch it is a premonition of what the bikini of the 1960s will be.
