Did you know that even mermaids wear swimsuits? This 1939 advertisement by the R. & W. H. Symington company, renowned for its Liberty Bodice corset during the Victorian era, showcases their innovative shift towards new styles and fabrics in the 1930s. The ad, promoting their Peter Pan collection, boldly proclaimed a "Fit Like a Mermaid's Skin!" It's a delightful reminder that even mythical creatures need fashionable swimwear!
