Print. Black and white photographic print of a window display which features ladies swimwear available at The J.L. Hudson Company Department Store. Three female mannequins are featured in the window and each is dressed in a two-piece bathing suit. The left and right mannequins are in similar styles and colors of suiting, while the center mannequin is featured in a paisley patterned suit with a skirt and spaghetti straps. A copy of 'Vogue' magazine is suspended from the ceiling. The ladies are accompanied by woven handbags, and hats. Signage in the central foreground reads, "Hudson's and Vogue agree on The Great Summer Looks, the 'uncovered midriff' is the latest beach attraction worn by the up-to-date young woman, Hudson's Active Sportswear, 6th Floor." The photographic sequence number, company name, and photographer's name are printed on the bottom of the recto, "28664-3x; The J.L. Hudson Company; Photography by Davis B. Hillmer."
