#2: My Grandma on the Beach
This is what a stylish beach day looked like right after the war. Captured having fun in the waves around 1945, this grandmother shines in mid-century fashion. She wears a classic one-piece swimsuit with vertical stripes, a popular design trick used to create a longer silhouette. This kind of bathing suit was the height of resort wear in the late 1940s and early 1950s.
