What is a "bikini"?

A bikini is a type of two-piece swimsuit for women that consists of a top and bottom. The design of the bikini varies, but typically the top covers the breasts and the bottom covers the pelvic region and buttocks. Bikinis are commonly made of spandex or other stretchy materials that can withstand exposure to water and sun. They come in a wide range of styles, including string bikinis, bandeau bikinis, and high-waisted bikinis. The bikini is a popular swimsuit choice and is often associated with beach culture and summer activities.
