Abstract: A swimsuit for ladies designed with an inner figure-controlling liner garment and an outer single ply bathing garment. The inner and outer garments, formed of elastic materials, are sewn separately along their common perimeters. The inner garment is smaller than the outer garment with greater lateral than vertical stretch for freedom of movement. Secured to the upper edge of the inner liner is a set of arcuate stays which are attached at their ends only to the inseam of the outer garment. The stays support the breasts and lift them upwardly and outwardly against the outer garment for an enhanced but natural appearance.
