THINK
DIET

Flowers shape the body - the rediscovery of the paleolithic double-curve in pettipants by Deanna Littel for Warner's.
Pettipants became a hot item during the latter part of the sixties. The first "pettipant look" was introduced as eyelet or lace trimmed mid-to-full-length cotton bloomers worn under baby doll dresses or gypsy layers as shown on Jean Shrimpton in Vogue March 1969 - see below. The printed pettipants above dealt with ever-rising skirt lengths, insuring some modicum of modesty with style.
