Queen of the South Co.
Vintage Cole of California cotton swimsuit with a ruched back. It can be worn strapless or as a halter. very flattering fit with full coverage back and skirted front.
The color may vaiey on different viewing screens, but it is a white and bright turquoise color, definitely leaning towards green.
Overall really good condition for its age. Some small markings and stains here and there on the fabric.
Some loose threads around the strap connection. A little repair near the inner chest cup.
Sizing: This would probably fit a modern size M/L.
With vintage items, because sizes back then varied and dont always translate to modern sizing, flat lay measurements are whats given. This means I lay the garment on a table, and measure straight across the bust, waist and hips. You then double the measurements to give you the circumference or actual measurements as would fit on a person!
Because this swimsuit is stretchy, the 1st measurements given are going to be the smallest size, the 2nd is the stretched measurement.
Swimsuit laying flat in inches:
Bust: 15-20 inches across - or 30 to 40 inch circumference - but did not account for the extra room the cups give
Waist: 13.5-18 inches across or 27-36 inch circumference
Hips: 15-21 inches across or 30-42 inch circumference
Total length: 23 inches
