    Love it. So far the 1930s swimsuit is my favorite.

    Thanks, its fun to see the model go through changes in swimwear but at the same location shot. Lizzie, it starts in 1915 and will go through 1945. I started yesterday and will continue through part of next week. Enjoy!

    Thanks everyone!

    Mary Jane, the Jantzen thing just kept getting weirder and I ended up removing my diving girl page. I still have it and will repurpose it at some point.

    Hi all, I'm new to the group and so I'm not sure if I'm posting in the right place...... I have a Jantzen swimsuit that my MIL gave me to look into fr her. Its' black woollen and I think it's from the 1930s. Can I post some photos here for advice please?

    I need that one that looks like a dress. How sophisticated! Those tights might keep the cooties away too. lol. Seriously someone should start making them again. I bet they would sell.
