THE BIKINI BOOK
Kelly Killoren Bensimon
Thames & Hudson
It may be strappy or sporty, sexy or slinky – but the bikini is always about beauty.
This lavish volume lays bare the recent history of the bikini, from its first appearance on French beaches in 1946 to the vanishingly small strings of today.
Here are:
Hollywood's pinups of the 1950s
James Bond girls rising from the sea
Raquel Welch
Annette Funicello
Brigitte Bardot topless in St Tropez
The itsy-bitsy, teeny-weeny styles of the 1960s
The monokini, tankini, bandini and V-kini
Kelly Killoren Bensimon is the editor of Elle Accessories and writes widely on fashion and beauty.
