Hi, everyone. I just have a few questions regarding not only this suit, but DeWeese in general. It's been hard for me to obtain information on when the company stopped making swimwear. Or are they still at it? In any case, I'm aware that the tag didn't change much over the years and that they were started in the mid-60's. This suit I'm thinking is 80's but I just want to make sure. The tag looks a bit different than another 80's suit I currently have listed. What do you think?

Here's the tag of what I thought was the same era suit...

I copied this from the label resource............."DeWeese Design was started by 1953 by sportswear designer Mary Ann DeWeese. She had been the head designer at Catalina for many years before starting her own business. DeWeese Design was primarily a maker of swimsuits and sundresses, with one of the most popular designs being a sundress with a built-in bra. DeWeese Design was in business at least through the 1980s. "

The resource doesn't have that exact label...do you mind if I grab it??

I would guess--from the wild colors and print, also the updated looking label--- that the suit was 80's. It's pretty funky!
