Sublime Bikinis: New Zealand Cottage Industry Gone Wild

Think that the guiding forces behind all micro bikini manufacturers are all dirty old men focused on cramming as many cubic inches of boobage into as few square centimeters of fabric as possible? Meet Flo Verlaner, a former exotic dancer from New Zealand who started Sublime Bikinis in 2003 and who is every bit as concerned with comfort as she is with quality control: "Dancers and strippers need bikinis and G-strings that will stand up to alot of wear and tear. The garments are often being taken off and put on again repeatedly all night, and stretched or pulled around. I like to make sure that my G-strings and bikinis are strong and well-made." Not having much experience taking off or putting on string bikinis ourselves, we can't vouch for her claims directly—but since we do happen to have plenty of experience ogling pictures of hot babes in barely-there swimsuits, we can wholeheartedly recommend browsing through Flo's inventory to see if any her styles work for you.
