Bathers, New Zealand  (1910)

Currently sweltering in a stunning summer heatwave, I thought it was a fitting time for adding this photograph, a cooling dip in the clean antipodean seas, and in good company! A curious layering of bathing suits here, and I will never stop finding the long-legged and very dated designs outlandishly adorable, especially those little striped numbers.
