Why and when International Bikini Day is observed?
People observe International Bikini Day to celebrate body positivity and comfort. They observe this day by wearing a bikini to a beach or a swimming pool. Those who don’t have it, buy it this day. People also use social media platforms to spread awareness and use #NationalBikiniDay and #BikiniDay. Initially, Bikini was not accepted and it was frowned upon due to its revealing design. It was considered obscene to wear this dress. No regular model agreed to wear it. So fashion designer Louis Reard hired nude dancer Micheline Bernardini to model it. Germany and France banned it. But later it became popular when film actresses like Brigit Bardot, Raquel Welsh, and Ursula Andress wore it in movies. It became popular in the fashion world of the West and women used it as a swimsuit as well as an undergarment. The name has been derived from the Bikini Atoll, the island, on which the first public test of a nuclear bomb was carried out just four days ago.
