Paper bikini

Description: Would you want to wear a paper swimsuit? The ultimate disposable in our throw-away society, paper clothing was all the rage in the late 1960s. Even though many users felt that the paper was itchy, the clothing never needing to be cleaned you simply threw it away and bought a new one. In fact, this suit wasn’t intended for swimming, just for sun bathing!
