About: Bikini variants

An Entity of Type: Garment103419014, from Named Graph: http://dbpedia.org, within Data Space: dbpedia.org:8891

The bikini has spawned many stylistic variations. A regular bikini is a two-piece swimsuit that together covers the wearer's crotch, buttocks, and breasts. Some bikini designs cover larger portions of the wearer's body while other designs provide minimal coverage. Topless variants are still sometimes considered bikinis, although they are technically not a two-piece swimsuit.

  • Les variantes du bikini sont nombreuses, à la fois en termes de matériaux et de formes. Un bikini classique est un maillot de bain en deux pièces qui couvre l'entrejambe, les fesses et les seins d'une femme. Certains bikinis couvrent une partie plus importante du corps, tandis que d'autres en dévoilent plus. Certaines variantes sans haut sont considérées comme étant des bikinis, bien qu'elles ne fassent pas partie d'un maillot de bain en deux pièces. (fr)
