1960s Orange and Pink Three-piece Swimsuit

About the Item

This is a terrific original 1960s three-piece swimsuit set comprising a sheer coverup, bikini top and bottom all in a matching orange and pink floral design. The coverup is made of a sheer manmade fabric while the bikini set is cotton with a white cotton lining. Labelled "A Sportaville Model", "tailored in London" this is a classic piece of 60s sportswear. The coverup is collarless with a single button at the neckline. The bikini top fastens at the back with 2 hook and eyes at different places to adjust to the wearers bust and it has reinforced cups. The bikini bottoms have an elasticated waist and knicker line. Condition wise this is in very good vintage condition with minor signs of wear. The set is labelled as a vintage UK 12 but in modern terms we could suggest this more suited to a UK 6, US 2.

1987 Alaia Runway Documented Pewter Swimsuit
By Azzedine Alaïa
Located in London, GB
This important spring / summer 1987 runway documented Alaïa swimsuit is tailored from a stretch-cloth with a satin-like sheen. The green-gold pewter shade became a signature of the house. It is cut to a bra-like shape at the front and is underwired. There are wide, supportive straps. The back is lower, cut with curved seams to pull in the waist. This is where Alaïa’s talents lay; cutting to flatter the female form. The stitching is tonal and the swimsuit is unlined, except at the gusset which we have replaced so it is brand new cotton. This one-piece is in excellent vintage condition with no flaws and looks barely worn. The fabric is 70% Polyamide; 30% Elastane. There is no size label so please check our measurements below - the cloth has plenty of stretch so please allow some degree of flexibility. We have featured an editorial shot from Vogue 1987 with model Rachel Williams...
