“Surprising” Photographs

“Something which may interest all women, and which has nothing to do with beauty or ugliness, is that apparently some of the finer nylon fabrics, when photographed in a strong light, become transparent. Several photographers, taking pictures of models in nylon bathing outfits, have had what they call ‘surprising’ results. Manufacturers of nylon say it hasn’t anything to do with nylon as such—after all, most very fine fabrics are apt to be transparent in strong light. All the same, it warns us to be careful, when wearing our new nylon swim suit, of posing for that snap in the mid-day sun!”
