Women's swim suits and sunclothes painted by French fashion artist René Gruau

John A Zehntbauer, Carl C. Jantzen and C. R. Zehntbauer founded Jantzen, which originally began as the Portland Knitting Company, in 1910 in Portland, Oregon. Portland Knitting Company manufactured and sold knit goods and hosiery. In 1913, the owners of the company developed what would be their first swimwear prototype when they produced a rowing suit for the rowing club they belonged to. The rowing club members liked the suits so much that they asked for a version appropriate for swimming.
