Gabar Deadstock 50s Green Plaid Swimsuit & Skirt Set - NWT
🤍 DESCRIPTION
An exceptional deadstock example of mid-century resort fashion, this 1950s Gabar bathing suit set remains unworn with its original tags still attached.
Rendered in a vibrant painterly plaid of fresh greens and white, the set includes a structured one-piece swimsuit, matching pleated skirt, and coordinating sash belt. Designed to take its wearer effortlessly from poolside lounging to seaside lunches and summer socials, it captures the playful sophistication that defined American resort wear during the 1950s.
The matching skirt transforms the swimsuit into a complete ensemble, offering the versatility that made coordinated swimwear sets so desirable during the era. Pieces this complete are becoming increasingly difficult to find, particularly in unworn condition with original tags still present.
Whether added to a vintage swimwear collection, worn for a summer getaway, or styled as a unique statement ensemble, this set embodies the optimism, glamour, and easy elegance of mid-century leisure dressing.
