Primitivism is a concept that expresses and organizes natural feelings of human beings which is hard to be identified by a rigid definition. It means "staying in the beginning or the initial state, not evolving or developing, and not affected by human beings from the intact natural state". Based on this meaning, the artistic style features inherent natural beauties, as well as plain and inornate design. These features have been reflected in a variety of art pieces. The aesthetic features shown in the primitivism art pieces can be categorized into four different aspects: naturalness, folksiness, sentimentality, and humorousness. These features, influencing modern fashion, have been reinvented by a number of fashion designers.

We collected 9,549 picture images totally through 138 swimwear product catalogues in 1970s to 2014, and 8 web sites. We analyzed formative characteristics such as silhouettes, materials, colors, and textile designs. Because of the shorter cycle of social changes, and various trend, design changes of swimwear are getting diverse. Especially, color and textile design are remarkable. Also, new materials and printing technology make the design of swimming wear more comfortable and fashionable. This research would be a basic research for the design development of swimming wear.
