Bruce, you do find the most interesting items!!!! LOLOL! Are you the
model???


I doubt whether I'd have the strength to put it on let alone stand up in
it. And what happens if you go out wearing it in the rain?

The gusset would probably drop down to your knees.

Like the swim suit my mother knitted for me during WW11. Since wool was
not available she knitting it in the yarn that was being produced. When
I went to the swimming baths first time wearing it at a mixed session, I
got in the water and immediateness the waist was round my bottom and my
new bosom on full view. I hastily gathered yards of wet fabric up to
hide my modesty and blushes and rushed to the changing room.
I went back to wearing the darned moth eaten one donated by a neighbour.
It dated back to the 1920's. Can laugh about it now but it was not funny
at the time
