A coworker and I were just talking about how much we dread swimsuit season, but also how much we love those retro swimsuits that are coming back in style…you know, those 1950s one-pieces that look really sexy but still hide all your “indiscretions” haha …
Anyways, I think I may have stumbled upon a wallet-friendly version of the great swimsuit that Miranda wears poolside in Mexico in the Sex and the City movie– you remember this one, right? It was right when the unfortunate “grooming” discussion took place lol.

… as you can see, it’s a gorgeous red Norma Kamali which retails for $350.
Anyways, I discovered through some online digging that Esther Williams, the legendary swimmer and movie star, actually has an awesome swimwear line aptly named Esther Williams Swimwear.
One of the styles they offer looks incredibly similar, and it’s only $65.

Plus, it comes in an animal print, a real cute floral, solids like chocolate brown, polka dots, retro cherries, and of course that classic solid red. They’re even using her swimsuits in the Broadway version of South Pacific that’s playing right now.
I may need to order one of these!
Awesome find!
