A Place To Call Home

Australian TV series started in 2013 and still in production. It is set in a small town in Australia mainly concerning the goings-on of the well to do local landowner's family it opens in 1953.

S1 E3 Anna (Abby Earl) and her sister-in-law, Olivia (Arianwen Parkes-Lockwood) are sitting by a lake in 1950s dresses with full skirts and their petticoats showing. They decide to go for a swim but haven't brought bathing costumes with them. This involves taking off their dresses and petticoats and swimming in their fullslips. Anna wears a very silky looking, close-fitting, fairly short fullslip in a colour that is perhaps somewhere between salmon pink and orange with beautiful contrasting cream/white lace at the bust and hem and narrow ribbon straps. Olivia wears a knee-length white fullslip that flares out at the hem and becomes see-through with gorgeous white lace. There is also lace at the bust and narrow ribbon straps. Fortunately we revisit the scene to see them sitting on the bank drying off and sorting out their hair. Prior to this scene Anna's petticoat had been in view and after this scene both girls show their petticoats again.

If you like petticoats you should check out S1 E2, Anna is some 10 feet above her boyfriend on a rock formation and we get his view right up her 50s dress. It is not the only scene in which Anna's petticoat shows in this episode.

S1 Ep5 Day of Atonement

The title of this episode is linked to the Jewish festival of 'Yom Kippur' which involves among other things a ritual cleansing. Sarah (Marta Dusseldorp) twice goes down to the river for her cleansing. Both times we see her take her dress off but from a bit of a distance. Both times it is shot from behind and Sarah is briefly in her white fullslip. I couldn't make out much detail, knee-length and getting fuller from the waist down. She went into the water naked.
In this episode Anna and boyfriend Gino consummate their relationship which sees Anna strip down to her orange fullslip; the same one as episode 3.

S1 Ep9 Cane Toad

Sarah (Marta Dusseldorp) begins a secret affair at the guest cottage. We see sarah in her white fullslip.

S1 Ep10 Lest We Forget

Back at the guest cottage; this time a partial view of Sarah in her white fullslip and a briefer view too.

S3 E6 In the Heat of the Night

Olivia's tryst with the painter sees her in a beige fullslip.

A slovenly Regina is seen more than once in her dressing gown opening to reveal some of her black fullslip.

Stills from the splendid swimming scene in Episode 3 from Series 1.

Great find Rhino!
Thanks for the caps!

A series with a most excellent period wardrobe - plus an encore of the swimming scene
