Default Topless bikini????

I was browsing through the bathing suits at VictoriasSecret.com and I came across the "topless bikini". This is honestly one of the most bizarre, and slightly hilarious things I've ever come across.

Who buys a bathing suit like this? And, more importantly, where? I guess, a nude beach, but then, why not just go all the way?

I'm not sure my sensibilities are offended or if I admire the chaputz of anyone who'd wear a bathing suite like this.

ROFL! That's hilarious! I wouldn't have believed it unless I had clicked on the link.

Even if I had that model's body, I wouldn't have the guts to wear that thing. I'd always be looking down wondering if my boobs looked funny.

the first image that came to mind was that scene in "Borat" where he wears that terrible speedo...
Did you notice it was 68 bucks? You'd get more fabric from a hair scrunchie.

Wait........what? hahaha. I don't care how skinny I get, I couldn't wear that. I think it would almost be better to just be naked. lmao

lmao 1st of all ... that poor model has ZERO boobs to begin with. Why not at least have a model with some kinda boobs, model for a 'topless' bikini lol stupid on their part.

2nd ... I would say this is more for peeps who go to nude beaches. And if that's the case, why wear anything at all?? lol

edited to give chicka a slice of pizza! lol - looks like she needs it

Haha... I don't get it either. If you go to a nude beach and don't want to show it "all" just wear bottoms!

My DH would say that the model in the ad needs to eat a sandwich.. haha. He likes girls with curves.. good thing for me. LOL

Maybe their thought was 'topless' bikini = 'topless' model lol. But then most runway models would fall into the 'topless' category.

What weird tan lines...

I agree -- nude beach just go nekkid or wear the bottoms.

But for me, I stick to racerback Speedos for laps in the pool. I'm not much of a sunbather.

Lol. That is funny. It does come with a bandeau top too as a second piece though, so if worn that way it is no different than a bikini.

my first thought was....

isn't that just some sort of marketing strategy to sell bikini bottoms as something "new"

but then after i clicked on it, i realized i guess it's just some sort of new style of revamping the old school bottoms.

wow, that's ummmmm, different. the suit with the bandeau top is kinda cute although I wonder what the back looks like, the description said the back was minimal so it's probably a thong. Without the top the tan lines would be really weird.
