**Some History of the Rose Marie Reid Company - She began her swim company in the 1940's. Her Motto was: "Every woman should feel just as Glamorous in a Swimsuit as a Evening Gown". She was the first to include elasticized fibers into her fabrics as well as perfecting the water-repellant fibers. She was also the first to put brassieres into her suits. Her suits were worn by Rita Hayworth, Marilyn Monroe, and Jane Russell in the 50's. In 1946 she moved to California where Bathing Suit Designers were making names for themselves. Three years later Lord and Taylor displayed her suits in one of their showcase windows. It was constructed of 29-Karat Gold and was for sale for $100. Can you imagine??

Good Vintage Condition - This Lovely 60's Designer Swimsuit is qualified as Good Vintage Condition. The Busts have very very light nubbing and the buttocks also have some light nubbing shown in photograph #7. Evidently the lady that wore it was a little bigger in the bust than the suit and she cut some holes right above the elastic on the bust (see photograph #8). This can be stitched up if you like. Other than those little foibles this is a Gorgeous Suit and Ready to Wear!
