Merge into Swimsuit. First off, the "written like an advertisement" argument is ridiculous. What could this possibly be advertising? The existence of bikinis?
That said, while there seems to be extensive research and sourcing here, very little of it stands alone from swimwear in general, and thus belongs in the main article -- which is rather (no pun intended) skimpy right now and could use the additional material. I also suspect some of this is original research, so it would be worth combing through the refs. Gnomingstuff (talk) 17:14, 22 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep The writing style is not addressed by deletion but by copy-editing. Merger to swimsuit is not appropriate because such fashion will involve other items such as sunglasses, hats, sandals, &c. Andrew🐉(talk) 17:47, 22 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
I did consider this, but the article is almost entirely about swimwear. The rest of it would probably fall under Cruise collection, but in this case there's almost nothing to merge there. (There's also the issue of where men's fashion would fall.) Gnomingstuff (talk) 17:55, 22 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Keep per Andrew Davidson. Absent concerns about notability, problems with tone/writing style are generally not solved by deletion. ---- Patar knight - ^chat/_{contributions} 15:16, 25 February 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Suggestion delete and then set it up as a disambiguation page and link to the different pages. That way we are linking the pages together? Davidstewartharvey (talk) 12:37, 2 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Delete: Subject is so broad its ridiculous. 200 years of what women wear at the beach. This impacts the article because it is impossible to have a topic this broad and not have it become a SYNTH essay, which this is. If we had an article "What women wear to work" or "What children wear to school" it would be equally as problematic. // Timothy :: talk 07:32, 14 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
Delete (with or without merge to Swimsuit. I searched for references supporting either "Women's beachwear fashion" or "Women's swimwear fashion" as a standalone article and I don't find anything to meet WP:GNG. I concur with the arguments that everything here should be covered Swimsuit or not be in the encyclopedia. Jeepday (talk) 18:19, 15 March 2021 (UTC)[reply]
