The Barbie Inspired Swimsuit is Back!

You're a Barbie girl in a Barbie world .... right?  Well she's back in our shop!  The 50's inspired swimsuit  in all it's glory!  Want the look?  Visit us at Get Go Retro!  And, did you know....  The Vintage Barbie Black and White Swimsuit was the original outfit for the first Barbie dolls. The ponytail Barbie dolls sold in 1959 to 1961 were wearing the famous zebra striped suit. The first Bubblecuts were also wearing this.

In 1962 Barbie's outfit was changed to the Red Helenca Swimsuit.
The outfit always included Black Open Toe Heels and White Sunglasses with Blue Lens.

Ruffle Back Swimwear and Oh La La ... Literally


Swimsuit time is coming ....We've got the Multi Striped Halter One Piece Swimsuit w/ Ruffled Back in Green, Pink & White w/ Side Cut Outs. Fully lined and water safe lycra material that will hold up to repeated wear. Made by Skinny Dip. This one is a favorite.

Another favorite ... the Oh La La. This vintage reproduction is not really a maillot because it is actually a two piece, but it looks like a one piece. Since it's a two piece, it fits more comfortably, it's easier to go to the ladies room and it won't bunch, sag, or stretch vertically when you sit like normal one pieces. Style shown is blue with two parallel white piping lines and rouching detail in the middle. Custom sizing is available for the same price.

Both available at Get Go Retro.com
