Carol Alt Hi-legline Maillot

Ocean beach at Lamu
February 1982 CA8220

Costume
   Oceano "mellow yellow" haltered strapless maillot high-legline. Italian $115.

   TL.

Actions
Ms. Alt lounges in a beach chair (1).

Commentary
   This is an early media example of the new generation of very high-legline maillots. The legline lies significantly above the crest of the ileum; the buttage is uncertain from this view. One is not quite sure if this is a strapless maillot with a necklace, or if the brown triangle at the front of the garment is an anchor for a needed uplift counterbalance.
