You've still got it, babe

Bikinis

Six decades after its invention, the skimpiest garment ever created for women to wear in public refuses to head for cover. The modern bikini, loved and loathed by women in equal doses, still reigns supreme as the great Aussie cossie everywhere from Brighton beach to the Big Brother house.

This iconic piece of apparel, which is as old as the oldest baby boomer, has gone as low as tan lines can go and still manages to recruit new followers.

Of course, it was originally a French invention, appropriately named after an explosive and controversial historic event, the American nuclear tests at Bikini Atoll in the Marshall Islands.
