Vintage Fashion Newsreel: Swimsuits 1952

[LindaONYT]

The dress with the flipping fabric piece is genius & fabolous! <3 I'm thinking about having a garment just like this tailored for me hoho. =P The 50's wa a very glamorous era.

[MsKamneva]

What are the "obvious reasons"?

[YodaJedi67]

I ♥ ♥ ♥ It!

[BabyGirlGoddess]

I really liked the striped one near the beginning of the vid.

[mywolfie09]

hey some of them were pretty cool i rock that bikin it was kinda cute

[Trixiebelle4Amartab]

Wow the ladies bodies looked so normal.

[JustWantToBeLoved2]

@Trixiebelle4Amartab well maybe because they are normal lol

[rorkimaru]

Wow the names, fashion really used to be that lame!?

[Slew42]

Why can't girls wear these now? So much more attractive than bikinis with tops that barely cover anything and thongs that go so far up in their butt they hit their intestines.

[idsilhouette]

Absolutely LOVE

[briano1983]

Its funny how she has five kids and its normal.

[NCBlonde]

More great reasons to buy vintage. :)

[tink111495]

I vacationed in LA in the summer of 09 and I had brought a few bikini's to wear with me but I could not find ONE store in Venice or Santa Monica that sold a one piece bathing suit. I wanted a vintage tailor made swimsuit and it wasn't until I came home to Canada I could have one custom made.

[ThePinUpChannel]

That was glamour !!!!

[WomensNylonPanties]

I love the 50s

To Sri Atluri : Rank 3 of 5, ...These are the Visuals you will need. For, Rank 4 out of 5 Pirronne Yousefzadeh. A good 4 one day very soooooon. Yet, not a 4 out of 10 on the runaway. If you have an eye for it.

1-20 seconds, then press pause.

I sure like black and white stripes.

To :Pirronne.

These are the word, of ye Captain of The Night.

[Moviestar20]

wow I so wish I lived though this decade,

I love the swimsuit when its a dress

[cocoshamoco]

y did everyone have pointier breasts but now we dont (srry ) anyways at 9 sec its the 1952 barbie swimsuite

[cocoshamoco]

lol at :09 thts the 1952 barbie and btw (im not a perv) but y dont we have pointy breasts but they all did back then?

[amyblueshoes]

different bras. The undergarments trained their bodies. The curve was a hard shape to produce with vintage fabrics and sewing tools.

[menchiiscute1]

I love the gold swimsuit, and the one when all those kids come out!! So lovely <3

[wyldcherry]

Saying "wing ding" makes me all giggly!

[MaitreyeeMAYHEM]

triple threat. woot woot!!!

i love this era.

[TaHiTiTaHoI]

i just hope one of these new "coppy cat" trends from this decade is those swimsuits, bc i really am just so jealous right now!

[bakerstella]

This is fantastic.

[niicolexx3]

i love vintage fashions!

I don't care what people will think, but i must get one of these types of swim suits! :P

[lonewulf44]

love it ... not just good looking women but the 1950's feel and look ... sigh, I was just born 60 years too late!

[raspyshiit]

you where born in 2012? that doesn't make sence - don't you mean 40 or 50 years late=]

[fntime]

Weatherbox, wing dings were windshield

wipers. Back in the 1950's, heaters,

radio's and windshield wipers, were

options. If you wanted to save money,

you could buy a car without windshields,

radio, heater, backseat and spare tires.

Wind dings were even sold in gas stations and hardware stores.

[leilanihawaii]

great! what is the 'obvious reason' for the wingdings to be up or down?!

[koolal7ob]

same thing here :$

what dose he mean by 'obvious reason' ?

maybe when the nipples get hard you put the wingdings down to cover up :x

[thou9009]

Fuller Breasts (up), Pointier (down). My best guess...

[hatesonions]

i want the pool dress ;(

[macNjulia]

WHOHOO! ... The swim suits with the pompoms have "dunk me" written all over them ... Wonder what happened to the boy's pompom(s) -- maybe he's a dunker and not a dunkee?! ... Look, Mom: no pompom! ...

[wendyvee]

To cover up wet "headlights" : )

[musicxcraze]

wow, everything was so cute.

[weeniesaurus]

omg

most of these bathing suits r sooo

cute!!!

[myszicka]

Nice swimsuit!:-) i love this fashion
