A swimsuit is an article of clothing worn while swimming.[5]
History[]
Viktor Krum wore swimming trunks while swimming in the Great Lake in January of 1995. Although Ron Weasley was surprised that Krum would go swimming in such cold weather, Hermione Granger reasoned that he was used to much colder conditions at Durmstrang.[1]
Later that year, Viktor Krum, Fleur Delacour, and Cedric Diggory wore swimsuits while competing in the Second Task of the Triwizard Tournament, which took place in the Black Lake.[2] Harry Potter swam in his plain work robes, simply removing his shoes and socks.[6]
Behind the scenes[]
- In the film adaptation of Harry Potter and the Goblet of Fire, Harry Potter wears a red and black swimsuit when swimming in the Great Lake for the Second Task.[2] However, in the book, there is no mention of him wearing a swimsuit for this task, instead he simply removes his socks and shoes and swims in his black school robes.[6] Therefore, him wearing a swimsuit during this task can be considered non-canon.
- Viktor Krum, Fleur Delacour and Cedric Diggory are not described as wearing swimsuits in the book.
- Myrtle Warren wears a swimsuit in LEGO Harry Potter: Years 1-4 and also in LEGO Harry Potter: Years 5-7.
