Vintage 50's Catalina Black Velvet Wing Ding Swimsuit Bathing Suit 38. This suit is simply stunning, and check it out Marilyn wore one just like it. Sweet Catalina swimsuit is made of lastex and nylon and feels and looks like velvet. The suit has a wing ding bust, the tops can be folded down or left up. There is a sheer nude panel between the cups and creates the lining for the bust. The back of the suit is completely shirred with elastic. The shoulder straps are adjustable and can be completely taken off for that strapless look. The front of the suit has a modesty panel with two rows of elastic shirring going up the front and coming to a point just below the bust. The gusset has a plastic liner.This beauty is made by Catalina, for weight of 140/155. Shows a bit large on my mannequin. Swimsuit is in excellent condition.
