With this glorious sunny weather, a refreshing bank holiday swim in the sea sounds great doesn't it? If you're thinking of grabbing your swimming costume and heading for the waves, spare a thought for how things were back in 1881!![]()
Back then, you might have been sporting the height of fashion: 'The Hubbard Bathing Costume'! This latest fancy for a bathing dress was typically made of fine serge, available in any colour you preferred, and could be yours for just three shillings with a trim! Imagine the elegance (and perhaps the weight!) of taking a dip in that.![]()
