"When I was designing this, I started out doing the open back part and then for some reason, I went towards the style that now, when I look at it, it makes me kind of think of like a high school wrestling team for some reason, but I really, really actually like it. I think it's way cute and the front of it would just be plain or you know, if it's, if it's your design, whatever you want it to be, but my front of this bathing suit would just be very, very plain, no details at all, just kind of like, like a high school wrestling uniform. And, I show, oh well, the way I wanted to depict it was that, it cuts across the butt cheeks, cuts up very high in the back, almost like a thong but with fabric across the butt, so that's why I have these lines, these are the bottoms of the butt cheeks and notice that the leg lines are way above that. And then you have obviously the dip. When I dip, you dip, we dip. And there you go."
