The bikini was invented by Louis Reard and Jacques Heim, in
Paris in 1946. However, due to its skimpiness, hardly anyone had the courage to
wear a bikini until the late 1950s, when actress Brigitte Bardot created a
splash by wearing a bikini in the film, ‘And God Created Woman.’ The bikini revolution
subsequently became a rage, and even got its own song: ‘Itsy Bitsy Teeny Weeny
Yellow Polka Dot Bikini.’

Coming back to the present, bikinis have become modest in
character. Bikini bottoms are offering more coverage than in the past without
giving up on their sex appeal. Last season witnessed straight, top-line bikini
bottoms. Surprisingly, there were hardly any deep-V bikini bottoms, thongs or
G-strings in sight. With more coverage in style, fashion houses are predicting
that the ‘skirtini’ is going to be the next big thing in the swimsuit industry.

Bikinis come in a variety of styles, the most popular being
‘Tankini’ (a longer top that leaves only a small portion of the stomach
exposed), ‘Bandini’ (a bikini with a bandeau top), ‘Camikini’ (similar to the
tankini except the top looks like a camisole), and ‘Boy Legs’ (the bottom is
longer and resembles short shorts). The classic halter-top, however, is still
in vogue although the ‘Bandini’ was the hippest bikini style last season, with
almost every swimwear label producing its own take on it. For the ties that
bind, sashes, rather than spaghetti strings, were in demand.

For those on the heavier side, sarongs continue to be a
flattering way to cover up the extra pounds, although board shorts are a sporty
alternative.
