Ultra low rise denim bikini pants
04/10/2007 @ 4:00 am
A friend sent me this image, along with a few others showing incredible “new” fashion trends in Japan. He wanted to check to be sure they were legit.
I have never seen this stuff on the street, so I figured it was just some kind of a Photoshop hoax. . . But after some Googling of the terms that appear in the screen shots.. .
I found this website that actually sells these “ultra low rise denim bikini pants“. Apparently they are from Brazil and are some kind of new fashion trend. The price is exactly the same as shown on the Japanese TV show pictured in the images.
Call me old-fashioned. . . But I’m amazed.
Anyone seen these in the wild?
This goes back to the recurring thread called, “people will believe anything, as long as you say it’s a trend in Japan.”
These look like they were made for Brazilian strippers, who are probably the only people to buy them. Whatever you say about Japanese women, you can’t deny that they are very particular about style. It’s not the skin, but the design of these jeans. They look cheap.
I would guess somebody saw this on YouTube, and assumed anything on TV must be reflective of the broader culture.
Of course, I can’t rule out the odd Yakuza who buys a pair of these for his girlfriend.

Will definitely be on the lookout. . .
April 10th, 2007 at 9:46 amThis reminds me of the see-through skirts that were allegedly all the rage last fall.
Whatever. If this is for reals, these jeans won’t catch on for one simple reason: they’re fug. >_

April 10th, 2007 at 1:46 pmThat’s stupid. Those can’t even quality as pants. Either wear pants or nothing at all!
April 10th, 2007 at 9:40 pmI meant qualify… Damn keyboard. Always blame the keyboard for typos!
April 10th, 2007 at 9:41 pmWhat’s the point? Stupid? You got to be kidding! It’s Japan… it doesn’t have to make sense, that’s the beauty of it! I only wish I was back there to admire it in person! Ee desu yo… Taihen jozu desu ne! God Bless the Japanese!
