Skimpy Thong Bikini

The skimpy thong bikini is perhaps one of the most revealing pieces of beachwear ever to be worn by men or women. Known as one of the earliest forms of clothing invented by humans, the thong has come a long way from being a simple, flexible leather cord used by primitive people to the sexy piece of beachwear worn by women and men today. These items can come in various materials, although the most popular are those made of cloth, leather, and plastic.

This barely-there beach outfit is the swimsuit of choice for daring women for several reasons. Such a provocative piece of undergarment can help you grab the attention of the crowd, especially the guys. It can also help you achieve a line-free tan, something that many women would want to have. Having a gorgeous, sun-kissed glow free of white lines is definitely a heart-stopper.

A short history

This was first introduced to the public by fashion designer Rudi Gernreich, although it was already hugely popular in Brazil before it hit US shores. In fact, American tourists who kept up with the unknown trend would visit Brazilian beaches each year just so they could wear their scanty bottoms, as wearing the barely-there swimwear back home was banned by most states.
This type of beachwear is more known as “fio dental” in Brazil. Such sexy pieces only started to become popular in the US when shows such as “Baywatch” became highly rated.

The thong vs the g-string

Many people confuse the thong with the g-string. However, there is one slight yet very major difference. The thong, no matter how small it already is, still offers more coverage than the g-string. This is because it covers the backside with a strip of clothing. 1/2- to 1-inch wide, while the latter uses a string that runs up the middle of the buttocks, offering the littlest amount of coverage imaginabl3. The g-string is widely regarded by experts as a variety of the Gernreich’s invention.

A skimpy bottom for everyday wear

While this is a popular beachwear option for the daring, it can also be an option for everyday underwear. Most women want to wear a skimpy item to avoid panty lines. Unsightly panty lines that usually appear when one wears sheer pants and skirts are eliminated when one wears a pair of barely-there undergarment. This kind of underwear should be worn with pants in the same color, especially if it is expected to ride up to the waist.
