Ok, so maybe a bit over the top with the thread title - but bikini technology takes a step closer to perfection :sailor:

Coupled with laws to prevent the ugliest of the ugly parading themselves in these miracle garments, we have revolutionised the day at the beach for an ordinary male :biggrin:

How though!? :eek:

I actually think that looks daft, as opposed to sexy. Perhaps if they didn't end so bluntly, but had some sort of designed edge, it would look better.

yeah, it does look a little strange at the mo - i guess these are just the "prototypes" though? also, how the hell is it possible? :confused:

and like has been said, what happens when the lady wearing it hits the water/runs/etc cough ? I dread to think! :rolleyes:

I personally think the bikini bottoms would look much better if they followed the same design principle as the top... :biggrin:

Slow down your starting to droool, I fail to see "a step closer to perfection :sailor: ".....personaly I like the suff thats out right now, and in my opinion of perfection is women on the beach wearing hot dog suits. JK JK JK im not wierd :biggrin: . Hey what happened to Dr. Braso? He'd be a great commenter on this tread.

They and are held in place with a gel compound at the sides
The mystery is solved after much furious and intensive mast- err searching.

Looks stupid. And what real women are going to wear this? It's all very well drooling at models walking around a california beach on TV, but it doesn't really get you anywhere, does it :smile:

Backless bras have actually been around for a while it appears. This is just the same revolutionary idea... but in swimsuit form!

ROFL :lol:

Seriously though, I guess its handy for people into tanning - in the past women just undid their bikini straps while lying face down, so as not to leave a line across their back. Now they dont have to bother!

Look at the ginormous bloomers they're wearing though, surely something skimpier would be more appropriate for tanning? ..This doesn't add up at all.

/me wonders at the legality of these tops.. what makes them different than pasties?

pasties are illegal on many beaches..

seems to me though, these tops rely heavily on the boobs ability to hold its shape, and adhere to the material of the top.. i wanna see how it holds up to mothers who breast fed, or older moms who have... less definition :biggrin:
