Bill Day’s fascinatiing history of a very small part of modern fashion – the string bikini.

TEXT

Most people think the String Bikini was created in the expensive fashion houses of Europe or America.

But the truth is – it actually came from a very humble begining near the beaches of Rio De Jeniero…

In the beginning of the 1970′s, young Brazilians were wearing Bikini’s much like those in the rest of the world…

They were two piece bathing suits first designed a Paris engineer, Louis Reard in 1946.

Reard named his creation after the Bikini Atoll, the site of nuclear weapons tests.

He felt the burst of excitement over his creation was like a bomb going off.

With the help of people like Brigitte Bardot, songs like Itsy Bitsy Teenie Weenie Yellow Polka Dot Bikini, and movies like Beach Blanket Bingo, the bikini became a symbol of pop culture.

About this same time, young Brazilian model Rose Di Primo was trying to make a name for herself in the early days of Brazilian Fashion Photography scene.

One day, a photographer, offered Rose a gig to pose in a bikini.

Rose accepted the job but didn’t dare tell the photographer she didn’t own a bikini… nor would she admit being unable to buy one.

Rose ran to her mother who was a seamstress. She asked her mother to make a bikini. But mother refused and told her daughter to make her own.

ROSE- So I took a panty etc… started to cut it etc…

When she was done she discovered there wasn’t enough material to go around her body.

In desperation, she found some string and used it to tie together the little scraps of material.

ROSE… I tied it at the sides like this…

For the top part Rose did the same thing…

SO that was also by accident… and that is how I created the string bikini

When Rose showed up at the beach that day… little did she know her creation would spark a revolution in woman’s bottom’s and mens eyes.

montage…

By the end of the 1970′s… nearly 100 million string bikinis were sold around the world…

But what happened to Rose Di Primo? Did she become

A. a millionaire

B. A writer

C. A Christian evangalist

D.Other

    Déclinaison du bikini inventé par le français Louis Réard en 1946 (cocorico !) le “string bikini” a été conçu par la brésilienne Rose di Primo qui, n’ayant pas le sous pour s’offir un maillot riquiqui, se mit en tête d’en fabriquer un toute seule. Hélas, la pauvresse n’avait pas non plus assez de tissu… Et c’est ainsi que le string fut (fiat string comme on aurait dit il y a quelques centaines d’années).

    I fear Iran just doesn’t have enough Samba fot the concept. But a “Girl from Tehran” would be a cool song.

    Hey, I think the Iranians would agree to let their women wear string bikini’s if the rest of the world lets them make their own nuke bombs!
