In today’s bikini fashion world, the Monokini is definitely not for the timid or faint of heart.   It’s one of the most shocking and scandalous swimsuits in the bathing suit market today; which could also explain it’s popularity.  It’s fun to push the envelope with swimwear!  With its peek-a-boo cut out style, Monokini’s have become the modern (and ever hotter) version of the one-piece swim suit. 

Monokini SwimsuitWhen fashion designer Rudi Gernreich first introduced the Monokini in 1964, the swimsuit consisted of bikini style bottoms with thin straps over the shoulders to hold the swimsuit in place. The swimsuit provided no additional coverage and left the breasts entirely bare. Today, fashion designers continue to vary on the style of the original Monokini, but with a little more coverage.

Women of all ages have fallen in love with the Monokini swimsuit look.  As a result, most luxury designers now incorporate their version of the Monokini one-piece into their collections.  This season Monokini’s will be sporting trends such as fringe, embroidery and gold hardware detail.  If you have been hitting the gym getting ready for summer, then reward yourself with this year’s hottest look in women’s swimsuits, the Monokini.  This cut-out swimwear will highlight your best assets and is more flattering than a bikini. 

Here’s to a hot, sexy summer!

The Monokini – Take A Walk On The Exotic Side!

The Monokini

Memorial Day weekend has always been the “unofficial” start to summer; the season doesn’t actually begin for another 2 1/2 weeks. However, that doesn’t stop bikini season from starting as soon as the weather gets hot!  And this year it’s not just the sun that’s hot!

A new wave of bathing suit is hitting the scene and it is one provocative suit. It’s call a Monokini and boy is it sexy!  This is one suit that will bring out those curves on your body and have all the guys breaking their necks to get a look.

The Monokini swimsuit is based on the bikini, but the rate of its sexiness is elevated to a whole new level by strategically placed fabric or metal links.  The inspiration of  the Monokini look is its “cut out” style.  It’s sexy because it exposes areas of skin that you may not expect to see, like the sides of the waist or plunging necklines.  What you are left with then is a one piece swimsuit that, when coupled with fabric that is literally cut out to expose miles and miles of sensuous skin, gives a woman a taste of the exotic.

Celebrities such as Kim Kardashian, Paris Hilton, Jessica Alba and Eva Longoria are jumping on the Monokini bandwagon and bringing this old classic back to life by wearing this sexy one piece at the beach and poolside.
