Description:
Brown, black, and white one piece bathing suit made of nylon and spandex. The pattern includes a floral design across a straight neckline that then shifts into a check pattern throughout. The white spaghetti straps are button-on neck ties, and elastic is encased around the top edge of the bust and inside the waistline, with a bra shelf of cream nylon. A gathered mini skirt covers the brown nylon seat with elasticized leg openings.
