EDITORS COMMENTS
This stunning print captures a piece of history from 1899 - a highly decorative but thoroughly impractical bathing costume made of fine red serge. The intricate detailing on this swimwear, including silk trimmings, braid, and fringed edging, showcases the craftsmanship and attention to detail that went into creating garments during this time period.
The combination of the tunic-style top and skirt bottom gives this bathing costume a unique look that sets it apart from more modern swimwear styles. It's easy to imagine women of the late 19th century donning this elaborate ensemble for a day at the beach or by the pool.
Despite its beauty, it's clear that practicality was not a priority when designing this outfit. The heavy fabric and ornate embellishments would have made swimming quite challenging, but it certainly makes a statement in terms of fashion and style.
This print serves as a reminder of how far swimwear has come over the years, evolving from highly decorative yet impractical designs like this one to more functional and comfortable options available today. It's a fascinating glimpse into fashion history and an example of how trends have changed over time.
