NEW YORK, June Nowadays
IN these warm early summer
days-when you're already going to
the beach or getting ready to go
it's almost as much in fashion to
have bathing suit wardrobe as to
have a dress wardrobe.
In Florida this winter we noticed
that. Our fashion reporters in Cali
fornia and on the Riviera Qucky
folksl) confirmed it.
One suit was worn for the morn
ing SWIM and another put on for
the after-SWirn summing. Still
third made its appearance for the
second swim.
And it wasn't just "swank," either.
It was good sense. Your good doc
tor viii tell you not to sit around
the beach IN q wet suit. And if
you really swim, you want clean
cut swimming suit with no extra
skirts or scarfs or jackets to inter
fere with your stroke.
But-out Of the water, where
every ones eyes are on YOU
naturally you want to look as
feminine as is the fashion. So the
soft, dress-like beach suit becomes
important in the wardrobe.
For real swimming there's moth
ing much better than the good old
knitted worsted, all in one piece,
with brief skirt Zap that covers
part OF the trunks, narrow shoulder
straps, and medium low cut back.
That's the kind Of suit Martha
NoreliEs wears when she wins
championships. Bebe Daniels wears
that kind, too, when she and hus-
band Ben Lyon take their morn
ing dip in the Pacific.

Some Of the newest ones are
hand knitted Or at least look
hand knit as many other
sportSwear fashions are.
A good suit to change into after
your swim is one Of those soft,
lightweight jerseys that are all the
fashion this year.
Some OF the newest are all in one
piece, just as the swimming suit is.
But they're more feminine and more
dresS-like.
incidentally, there's no reason at
all why you can't swim as well as
sun in these suits, if you're not out
to break speed records.
They don't 1T as snugly and so
otter little more resistance to the
water, but after al, what difference
does that make TO the ordinary
100-yard swimmer or the one
who SWinlS with one toe on bottom!
The suit illustrated at the right,
for example. The different color
insert and the slightly fared lines
make it look very much like dress.
The shorts are full enough to look

Other suits Of this same general
type have pleated shorts OF q real

as fashionable in bathing suits as

Another new idea this wear is
the one-piece suit OF jersey with

You swim IN the one-piece part
and put on the shorts or skirt when
