Photograph was edited for publication purposes Photograph caption dated March 22, 1962 reads, "This cotton print swimsheath, with wrap-around skirt and miniature frog closing at the waistline, is from the new collection of island-made clothes currently on display at Silverwoods, 8401 Van Nuys Blvd., Panorama City. In featuring these clothes, Silverwood's women's shop has been transformed into an island setting with authentic props and set decor (such as the replica of the HMS Bounty seen here) from the soon - to - be - released MGM picture 'Mutiny on the Bounty.' The island collection includes beach and play clothes, dresses and lounge wear, in brilliant tropical colors."
