The 1940s was the era when the midriff was born, and it was shown in swimsuits as well as playsuits. 1940s swimsuits were tight, unlike the suits of previous era. One-piece swimsuits were still popular, but the new two-piece suit had plenty of fans too. The materials used to make swimsuits our of rayon jersey and rayon jersey blends with knit cotton linings. Many suits had accent panels of a velvet like rayon velour. Some also featured ruching on the front or side panels that were both pretty and figure flattering. The one-piece swimsuit looked like a very tight, short dress. The bra top resembled a full-coverage bra. The suit then extended down into a tight ‘skirt’ that would cover the backside completely. Skirts were either snug fitting around the hips and thighs or loose, called “swing skirts.” Source: medium.com/@riabohra9196/1940s-swimwear-cca03eca4513

A report in a Brisbane newspaper in 1930 described the newly built church as follows: “Crowning the highest part of Hawthorne St…the Church of the Holy Trinity, which has been designed in Italian Romanesque style (and strictly conforms with 11th-century style work), commands, sentinel-like, a view of the entire parish; the white tower, flood-lighted at night, standing 25 meters above the street level.” The Parish of Holy Trinity at Woolloongabba has been rebuilt or repaired three times in its history. The parish has well and truly stood the test of time, natural disasters, and destruction. In fact, the current church is the third structure that has stood on the site! *** The original wooden church, builtn in 1870, was destroyed by a major storm in October 1874. *** The church was re-built in 1875. That building stood proudly until 1929 when it was destroyed by a major fire, although the cause and origin of the blaze were never found. *** In 2014 the church and hall were both badly damaged by the wildly destructive November storms which hit Brisbane.
