Fashion - 1970s. Opening shots in the battle for the beaches

Fashion - 1970s. Opening shots in the battle for the beaches. The swimwear makers are persistent if nothing else. Time and time again they've tried to make girls abandon itsy-bitsy bikinis for long, sleek swimsuits. And time and time again they've lost this battle for the beaches. Naughtiness and in-built sex appeal have kept the bikini afloat with millions of holidaying women. Nothing - but nothing - could persuade them that a swimsuit would give them that. A swimsuit was the garment mother preferred her daughter to wear, as long as it was decent and sensible. But this year the swimwear makers could be on a winner - with something that mother almost certainly wouldn't like. For one-piece swimsuits have really come into their own, or should we say out of their own? If a girl doesn't fall out of the extra low front, she could fall out of the extra low back. Made in the thinnest of thin materials, the new costumes are devastating when they're dry...and when they're wet they could be a revelation!. The lowest of low backs is a feature of this spotted cotton crepon swimsuit, priced at £5.50, at Miss Selfridge. May 1974 P017458
