A Brief History of the String Bikini

A most excellent and close friend of mine, Bill Day, a documentary filmmaker, put together a short film on the history of the string bikini.

What would glamour photography be without string bikinis?

If you're a pretty girl shooter, you'll probably be interested to learn of the string bikini's origins. You can do that by watching Bill's short film.

Video streaming of Bill's short is courtesy of everyone's favorite short-film website, UTube®. It's brought to you by Planet Pop and sponsored by Missionary Positions

The model removing her string bikini is Monica. If you prefer images of string bikini-clad models on actual beaches, use you imagination and pretend I shot this at Malibu on a moonless night instead of in front of a black seamless. You can almost hear the surf pounding in the background, right?
