Title: Supper shelf?
Post by: Judi_bk on 03 Jun, 2019, 02:25:32 pm: Spec for a swimsuit I was looking at on line

Embroidery to notch neck
Yarn-dyed stripes
Bust darts
Adjustable detachable straps
Supper shelf
Ruching to each side

Dare I ask what a supper shelf is?

The supper shelf club was adinner dance club but dont think they were in swimsuits.

God be with the days when there were no wires and pulleys just gravity.

Post by: Raymondo on 03 Jun, 2019, 10:19:46 pm: Aw, its just wishful thinking of course . I wish I was back in the free swinging sixties . I used to have wishful dreams of Julie Christie. Still do.
No padded anything in those days.🎶

Post by: frankie on 04 Jun, 2019, 08:28:17 am: I can remember when bras did not have underwires but they did have stitching which went round and round the cup, ending in a point in the middle. They were cotton and only in white. Anyone wearing a coloured bra or, god forbid a black one, was considered to be very racy indeed. Bet I'm not the only one, eh Girls?
