- Go to In the 1950s this was the latest thing - but was it?
I went to fashion school after high school. We had to do a book of silhouettes of past fashion styles and how they are incorporated in today's fashion. It was very interesting how designs continue to reappear.

Good morning
This is a pretty awesome observation. I have noticed that fashion trends always come back, but not always in the original way they were first worn. I wore leggings back in the 80s with long blouses over them with a wide belt. Today they are worn with short shirts and no belts.

I remember the outcry in Australia when young people, male and female were wearing skimpy bikinis on the Sydney beaches in the 50's. There was a picture in a women's magazine seen as disgusting of four teenagers wearing very little at Bondi beach in Sydney, A couple of girls and boys. One of the boys, years later, became my Greek husband and one of the girls was his sister.

It looks like the bikini does, indeed, date back further than what we thought.

Wow!
I does not look if they put much weight on in those days. Perhaps history does repeat itself.🌺
