This piece is so amazing. Vintage 50s Gossard Swimwear 2 piece bikini is fashioned from an olive, purple, coffee, black and white fun cotton fabric. The bust and the front of the bottoms have petal or leaf shaped self fabric appliques that create the fabulous dimensional effect. The bust is lined and softly padded with an under wire for support. The top has an inner elastic band on one side of the back which ends with a hook. The halter neck band can be adjusted or taken off completely. The bottoms feature that same fig leaf style applique on the front and the sides are shirred with elastic. The leg openings are elasticized, bottoms are fully lined. Bikini is in very good condition. Very light spot on inside lining to bottoms does not show on outside. Also very faint area on lining at side chest, also affects only the lining and not seen on outside. These are both very minor. Made in England.
