The women's Victorian bathing suit costume hurtles you back in history to a time of sensible prudishness and Victorian class. A Victorian lady simply wouldn't entertain the bathing suits of the modern era as she was suitably covered (great sun protection to be fair, but a bit rubbish for actually swimming). The women's Victorian bathing suit costume comes with a detailed adult dress, Victorian knickers (knickers is a funny word isn't it) and straw hat with ribbon.
