Generally, bikinis are two-piece women’s bathing suits. The famous swimwear was developed in 1946 by the combined efforts of an engineer and a fashion designer. Bikinis were named after Bikini Atoll as an advertising ploy: the islands of Bikini Atoll, a cluster of 36 islands in Southeast Asia, housed the first tests of American nuclear weapons, and the bikini designers believed their garment would be as explosive as a bomb! There are many variations of the traditional bikini and many cuts and styles available today. Some of these variations, like the monokini, pubikini, and sling bikini, continue to entice controversy even as the standard bikini has long ago been adopted as quite acceptable. Although no models of the 1940s felt comfortable wearing the suit (which is why its designers were forced to hire an exotic dancer), today bikinis can be found in even conservative wardrobes.
