1960s Black White Polka Dot Pinup Swimsuit and matching Bull's Eye Cover-Up by Rose Marie Reid

Mod Pinup Polka Dot two-piece bathing suit.  The top is not padded but does have 'stiffened' molded cups shaped with interior seams of the white lining.  The bottoms are zip-up boy shorts and have built-in white cotton 'panties'.  Both pieces are made of cotton and have no stretch.  With a sheer nylon bull's-eye cover-up it's a great eye-catching set for the beach or pinup event.

The shorts close in the back with a metal zipper and interior hook/eye.  The bathing suit straps are adjustable with three button-holes on each to chose from that button into the back strap of the top.  The back strap closes in the center with two buttons.

The listing is for the bathing suit and cover-up.  I added the white belt and hats, please email me if you are interested in any of these accessory pieces.

Condition:
Bathing Suit - Slight yellowing on shoulder straps, a tiny bit under the right arm and upper portion of bottoms.  A good cleaning might lighten some of the yellowing, I did not want to create fading or color run so I have not attempted to remove the yellowing.
Cover-Up - there seems to be an overall yellowish tint to the tunic, I'm not sure if it will brighten up after washing.

Measurements:
I would call this an extra small...
Top/Bust 32"
The straps unbottoned are approximately 14" in length

Bottoms
Waist 25" (they have a small piece of elastic in the back, they stretch to a 25", no more room here really)
Hips 34"
Length 11 1/2" measured at the side seam
