| Description: | MODES AND MERMAIDS The latest beachwear fashions are modelled in a garden - great rubber swimsuit! could be Australia. Various shots of the latest fashions in swimsuits and beachwear being modelled in a garden or grounds of a country house. A woman wearing a two-tone spotted swimsuit waves to the camera, then fades away. Another model fades in to view as she walks across a lawn in a towelling robe and white net turban. She takes off the wrapper to reveal a snug swimsuit in 'transparent lace' (probably lace backed with flesh-coloured fabric). Next we see a striped and frilly cotton swimming dress. Great shot of a woman in a rubber (probably lastex) strapless swimsuit, sitting on a wall and smoking a cigarette. A demure two-piece striped outfit is next, then we see the first swimsuit again as the model ties a bow in the lacing at the side. | |
