Every year on this day, July 5th, bikinis
of all types and sizes are worn to celebrate
Bikini Day and its invention in 1946 by
Louis Reard, a Parisian fashion designer,
No bikini for me today. I haven't worn one
since around 1972.
This is me in Hawaii in '72 trying my first Mai Tai
drink. I didn't like it!
Here's a
much cuter little bikini for a 1 year old.
It’s made from a pattern by Ruby Jean’s Closet called “Gidgit” and
the fabrics are from
the Just Another Walk in the Woods line by Moda.make sewing this bikini so much quicker and easier.
We could
still be wearing suits like this…yikes!
