Bikini
比基尼
The bikini came as a *bombshell in 1946. It was devised by French fashion designer Louis Reard, who named the creation after the Pacific Ocean *atoll, where the American government *detonated the first postwar nuclear bomb.
1946年，比基尼引起了轰动，它是由法国时装设计师Louis Reard设计的。Louis Reard以太平洋的一个环状珊瑚岛为自己设计的这款泳衣命名，美国政府曾在该岛引爆了战后的第一枚原子弹。
The *skimpy, two-piece swimsuit is an aftereffect of fabric rationing during World War II, when the American government directed that the cloth used in women’s beachwear should be reduced by 10 percent to *conserve fabric.
这种小而暴露的分体式泳衣是二战期间纺织品定量供应的产物。当时，美国政府为节省纺织品，规定用于生产女士海滩装的布料需减少10%。
Claimed as the world’s smallest bathing suit on its launch, the bikini was initially banned in conservative Catholic countries. It didn’t rise in popularity until the 1950s, when screen icons, including French movie star Brigitte Bardot, were photographed in them.
比基尼刚刚面世时，号称是世界上最小的泳装，最初在保守的天主教国家遭禁。直到二十世纪五十年代，当包括法国电影明星碧姬•巴杜等在内的银幕明星们身穿比基尼拍摄影片时，比基尼才开始流行。
