1970s - At the Beach and After!

A caftan, a bikini, a wrap ankle-length skirt, and a long beach cover-up from February 1973 and Vogue - some very easy fashion to sew up and totally fabulous to wear.

While I encourage you to visit my shop Etsy shop, Midvale Cottage for lots of 1970s swimsuits and cover-ups, you can find the patterns for the two bikinis and cover-ups (illustrated above) in the following Etsy shops:
