Sixty-two years ago this week, the bikini made its debut. According to Slate, the bikini was so scandalous that even the French models who were supposed to wear it refused - the design was instead worn by a stripper! Webster's Dictionary defines the bikini as "a women's scanty two-piece bathing suit", which lends itself to interpretation.
1946 The bikini was unveiled during a Paris fashion show
1959 St. Tropez
Vintage Inspired Swimwear flatters curves and is sexy, without showing too much skin. It's not something you see on the beaches of SC on a regular basis, either -
Suits from Anthropolgie, Michael Kors 2009 collection, and Urban Outfitters, respectively. It's hard to defy the classic lines and pin-up girl quality of stripes and polka dots.
i can't get enough of these looks. these might be out of style after a while, but i don't think i can ever go back to any other type of suit. this is my absolute favorite ever.
