Tapan Reservoir, Ohio Summer 1964 TR6410 Costume Gals: Maillots. Bra and culotte deux-pièces. Guys: Barechested and trunks. Gals: TL, TML. Guys: TMLC. Actions "Like I said, we had a class picnic at a local reservoir our junior and senior years in high school. And on senior year, for the first time, most of the girls wear two piece swimsuits, which is a big change from the previous summer (TR6310), when like, nobody did. In fact senior year only one of the girls wears a one-piece, and it is a rather sleekly cut red thing with straps and a plunging front (1). "The class president is this gal with a full figure and she has a new orange two-piece that shows some cleavage (2), but the most shocking thing is one of the girls from the church--she crawls around in the water in front of the lifeguard with her straps hanging off her shoulder and her breasts almost falling out (3). She just taunts him. As I think about it now I suspect she just had too much to drink." Commentary These deux-pièces, with full-bodied tops and wide-sided bottoms, are hardly bikinis, and are conservative compared to the costumes portrayed in Hollywood beach movies. But none the less, this is the early public bare midriff in the midwest. Source Recounted by the Bikini Scientist. 3 pictures. |
