Skirted

Sometimes more is more when it comes to women's fashion. The more conservative and modest lines of 1940s- and 1950s-inspired swimsuits can be much sexier than string bikinis that leave nothing to the imagination. Skirted swimsuits not only protect a woman's modesty but they help to create an attractive shape and hourglass figure that may be lacking in a modern bikini. This vintage swimwear comes in one-piece or two-piece varieties and looks great on almost any figure. The 40s and 50s were when swimwear first began to really lose its modesty. This is when women finally ditched the bulky swim outfits of decades past and donned bathing suits that aren't too much different than many of the options we have today. Women also began showing their midriffs and skirted swimsuits often looked like tight skirts and tops or a tight and very short dress.

The selection of Unique Vintage swimwear is inspired by the bathing suit styles of the 1940s and 1950s. There are several different types of styles that are sure to speak to your inner vintage goddess. There are plenty of vintage one-piece peplum swimsuit options that have varying levels of coverage. Some are more traditional one-piece bathing suits with a tiny little frilly skirt that serves more as a decoration than actual coverage. Others, however, are full one-piece swimdresses that have skirts which provide actual coverage and come part of the way down your thigh. There are also a large variety of two-piece bathing suit options in many different styles. Some look more like miniskirts paired with crop tops than bikinis. They feature fully skirted bottoms and sleeved crop tops. These swimsuits will allow you to effortlessly go from land to water without even needing to change. There are also plenty of rockabilly- and Marilyn Monroe-inspired swimsuits to suit every taste.
