Hot Leopard Bikini, 1970

 

Poolside at the apartment building where our family friend "Aunt" Lucy used to live.  Mum looks incredible, of course. 

 

She usually wore hats in the sun, to prevent sun damage to her face.  Smart, to know that back then.  That's why she looks so good now.

Colorful Handmade Dress

 

Mum is the one on the far right.  I'm pretty sure that she made this dress, because I know she made the matching purse on her arm.  Mum and Nanna used to do a lot of sewing.  I don't know how they did it.  I always found sewing to be too difficult for me.  I guess I don't have the patience.

 

This photo says it was developed in June of 1970.

 

Great gams, eh?
