Girls in bathing suits from 1964 to 2012 (49 photos)

In 1964, Sports Illustrated magazine editor Andre camp came up with the idea to put on the cover is not an athlete, a young lady in a bikini. winter - traditionally a sad time for sports journalism and camps believed that the half-naked girl picture can hardly revive sales. He did it. And since then, every year in February, Sports Illustrated magazine publishes a special issue - women in swimsuits (formally as Wikipedia tells us, the concept of "room with girls in bikinis" was fixed only in 1964). So, from photographs that can be traced back any interesting trends. The evolution of swimsuits (though probably correct to say miniaturization), to changing perceptions of beauty. Who is closer. And you can just porassmatrivat ladies :)
