This cotton short romper/swimsuit? has a tag that says Teez - Miami, FL and another small tag that says Lot Size 42. It also has a metal zipper and bloomers underneath skirt with no opening at crotch, zipper back. Seems to have some kind of boning in bust. Straps have spots for 3 button adjustments in back. Could someone please tell me if this is actually a swimsuit and when it was made? The fabric feels like cotton.

Measurements are 34" 26" 34"

Thank you!

not a swimsuit, a romper or playsuit. do you have a shot of the label and size tag you could show us so we can better help with the date?
 
Also wanted to mention that the double string belt was popular in the 1970s, but want to see more...

Maybe lingerie?
 
I think it's '60s - and agree that it's a playsuit.

Lillie, some of us (myself included) prefer not to click on external links. If you can please follow the forum guidelines and post images here it will make life easier. Thank you.
 
Here are the two labels. I hope this helps. Thanks!

Can you show a shot of the entire garment, falling as it would on a body? I can't see enough of it all at once to tell--it could very will be a 1960s' playsuit, but it's hard to tell without seeing the whole thing all at once! That "Teez" label is familiar to me but I think I'm remembering it from when I was young, as I'm sure I haven't had any vintage with that label....
 
Thank you everyone!

Anne - I included photos of the entire garment in my first post in the link to Photobucket. My pictures were to large to actually upload and I can't figure out how to make them smaller.
