Monkinie

A monkinie is a type of swimwear, typically a one-piece swimsuit, that features cut-outs or openings in the torso area. These cut-outs can vary significantly in size, shape, and placement, ranging from small, decorative slits to larger, more revealing designs. The term "monkinie" is primarily used in the fashion and retail industries to describe this particular style of swimsuit. It is a portmanteau, likely derived from the words "monokini" (a topless swimsuit) and "bikini," suggesting a garment that combines elements of both. The style provides more coverage than a bikini but offers a similar aesthetic appeal due to the exposed skin. The popularity of monkinis fluctuates with fashion trends, and designs can vary greatly depending on the brand and target market.
