Bikinis
The modern two-piece swimsuit called the bikini was invented by the French fashion designer Jacques Heim and French engineer Louis Réard in 1946. Even though similar items of swim wear had been designed in the past, the fashion world's coverage ensured that "bikini" would become the standard term to describe modern women's swimwear. The bikini became immensely popular in the 1960s, having featured in Hollywood films such as Dr No, immortalised by Ursula Andress emerging from the sea.
Surf Wear Bikini Varieties
The popularity of bikini has grown immensely and it is now an essential item of clothing for many women, with ladies wearing bikinis at the beach, women's sporting bikinis at the swimming pool, or simply as a means to sunbathe away from the water. Variations on the original bikini design have also given us halter neck bikinis, triangle style bikinis, bandeau bikinis, and also hipster style/boy fit briefs, and Brazilian thongs.
Other alternatives worn by ladies at the beach and in the water include a single piece swimsuit or bathing suit, a tankini, rash vests, and boardshorts. A tankini or a rash vest can be partnered with bikini bottoms or boardshorts, most often used for surf in warm water conditions.
