Mercedes-Benz Fashion Week SWIM Runway: Pistol Panties
Posted in: UncategorizedI’ll admit it, I’m a sucker for anything retro. From pin-ups like Bettie Page and Dita von Teese to paintings by Alberto Vargas, I love them all. Best of all, they’re a great source of inspiration for swimwear! For the latest swimwear collection from Pistol Panties, it’s easy to see all the retro pin-up references! Deborah Fleming, the British/Colombian designer behind Pistol Panties is committed to designing “glamorous swimwear to make you feel like a superstar.” In fact, Deborah’s first job was designing costumes for film and theater where she found vintage film costumes as inspiration. I can imagine almost every swimsuit flattering all shapes and sizes (which is quite a feat!). A variety of prints were featured from classic polka-dots and houndstooth to a bold print that reminded me of stained glass windows. Some of my favorite looks had giant floppy hats which provide much needed sun protection and privacy on the beach. It’s hard to please everyone, but I think Pistol Panties may have done it!
