AT THE BEACH: Pattern 5781: Girl's Beach Suit

"Beach suits are as popular with the children as they are with adults. They are made on exactly the same lines" - so said the pattern text in Madame Weigel's Journal of Fashion, January 1932. The pattern came with or without a bolero. Girls enjoying the beach together - or perhaps, sisters!

A very popular pattern, this divided riding skirt accompanied a well-fitted riding jacket. When first issued in 1905, the skirt was described as 'a most comfortable and convenient shape' and very graceful when off the horse. An important development as women riders moved from side saddle to ride astride.
