My swimsuit is a deconstruction of the original male swimsuit, worn by Annette Kellerman when she was famously arrested on a beach front in Boston for indecency.
I have created a simple, clean line that gives the illusion of the swim suit wrapping around the body. Flowing down from the '20's inspired swim cap, the swim suit moulds to the body, emphasising the healthy, contoured shape of the contemporary Australian woman.
I have broken down the male swim suit of the early 1900's and transformed it into a fresh one piece that embodies both the feminine flair of the modern Aussie woman and the strength and confidence of Annette Kellerman.
