Marielle Bolier
als ontwerpster van confectie kleding begonnen in 1967, stoffen kiest ze uit op de internationale beurs in Frankfurt
Although it was still quite controversial, some women were wearing two-piece swimsuits on the beach as early as the 1940s. In 1967, Marielle Bolier came up with an alternative: the ‘minikini’. ‘I’m not going to the beach in a bikini with such baggy bottoms and underwires in the top.’ As well as swimwear, Bolier also designed this outfit to wear by the sea: a light T-shirt and a skirt with a high side slit.
