Beach & Poolside Fashions - 1935

With summer officially here, we thought we'd start by sharing some images of casual beach and pool fashions, all from 1935. The above image was "taken aboard the Lurline" en route to Hawaii.
"For sheer swank afloat or ashore," halters and jersey pajama pants were popular...


Writer Nancy Hale shown in her “special outfit for summer travel on the seas” - white gabardine shorts and a halter made from Woolworth’s sportier red cotton handkerchiefs.

Pool beauties. Plaid suit in the top image is similar to #1, the "dressmaker suit" below.


Don't forget the Sun-Pruf cream!
