This is a fabulous little set.
Made in the 1950's, it is made from a medium weight cotton twill in black and yellow polka dots. The top is lined in the front and has three rows of frills across the bust. It fastens in the back with a large hook on an elastic strap.
The shorts are very short, have an elasticated waist and are trimmed down the side edges with the yellow fabric used in the bikini.
Measurements
It is a very petite set and is for a 32-25-34 maximum.
Condition
Structurally very good but there are some minor points to note;
- the bikini is lined and once had padding in the cup but the padding has broken down and is a little crunchy in the cup
- there is some overall fade - this was only noticeable because someone had put tucks in the top of the straps which, when removed, showed the original shade of the yellow
