| 520 | _a"Woman's Bathing and Swimming Costume in the United States" by Claudia Brush Kidwell is a historical account published in the late 20th century. This work traces the evolution of women's swimwear in America from its utilitarian beginnings to more functional and aesthetically pleasing designs. The book delves into how societal attitudes towards women's roles and participation in recreational activities have influenced the changing styles and standards of modesty in bathing and swimming costumes throughout history. The opening of the book provides a thorough introduction to the topic, discussing how early women's bathing attire was initially restrictive and utilitarian, influenced by modesty norms and societal expectations. It explains the gradual transformation of these garments, highlighting the cultural dynamics and technological advancements that allowed women greater freedom and acceptance in water activities. Kidwell sets the stage for a detailed exploration of this evolution, noting that the history of women's bathing dress is intertwined with broader themes such as public perceptions of women, health movements, and the advancement of gender equality in recreational pursuits.
