Beautiful Hollywood Swimsuit Fashions of the 1930s

Until the introduction of the bikini in 1946, this style of maillot would be further shortened and tightened to progressively reveal more and more skin.

These are some of interesting vintage photographs that show beautiful Hollywood swimsuits in the 1930s...
