History bikini (32 photos)
Recently, such a fashionable item of clothing as bikini celebrated another anniversary. July 5, 1946, less than a week after the United States detonated an atomic bomb at Bikini Atoll in the South Pacific, a Frenchman named Louis Rare - automotive engineer-turned designer - introduced the world to lovers the world's smallest swimsuit. < br />
I present to you photos from the archives of the journal Life, dedicated to the bikini. Let's see, what were these bikini in the first years of their popularity.
Frankly, two-piece swimsuit was invented long before the creation of PEAP. Even on Greek urns and mosaics, which more than 3,000 years, depicted women athletes in the two-piece bathing suits.
But the genius creations Rare was the fact that he created a swimsuit from a minimum of fabric, which at the same time could be worn in public. He said that can not be called bikini swimsuit if both sides do not go to the wedding ring.
