The uncover triumphs on the beaches
Almost 10 years ago Borat, the most famous character of the actor and comedian Sacha Baron Cohen, tried to make the mankini a trend. However, this kind of male swimsuit, far from conquering the general public and beginning to fill the beaches, only managed to become one of the main symbols of Cohen's parody. The last sighting of a makini took place last May in New York, at the gates of the Metropolitan Museum on the night of its grand gala. A garment that this summer enters the list of swimwear designs preferred by women, as revealed by a survey conducted by AshleyMadison.com.
Although the mankini does not manage to dethrone the classics, a modest 5.3% of the 1,752 surveyed indicated it as one of the sexiest garments that can be found on the beach. While the brief is crowned as the swimwear design preferred by the female public (25.8%) -, followed by boxers (18.2%).
