I was just thinking recently of the great ENF scenes from the Archie comics I read in the 1970s. This page reminds me of one where Veronica buys a portable cabana so she can change right on the beach, and ends up wearing just the cabana. She must have been changing for some sort of photo shoot because there's a photographer at the end saying he's got his next cover photo as Ronnie is mortified.
There was also a story (this one may have been Josie and the Pussycats) where several young women are getting ready to do some swimsuit modeling at the beach for a commercial or something. The bad girl decides the good girl's bikini is cuter and switches hers for it. With the cuter bikini she is a big hit, until they all go into the water. The bad girl decides to stay in the water instead of leaving with everyone else. The good girl knew her suit would shrink to nothing if exposed to water, leaving bad girl basically naked.
Those two scenes, plus Betty Cooper getting tied up by the kids she's baby-sitting, are my most enduring comic-book memories.
