Mai nā lole ʻauʻau hoʻokahi ʻāpana a hiki i nā bikini olohelohe, ʻike ʻo Vogue i ka hoʻoikaika ʻana i nā lole ʻauʻau āu e pono ai i kēia kauwela mai nā waihona o ka mōʻaukala hana.

ʻAʻohe mea kānalua ua loli nui ka helehelena o nā lole ʻauʻau mai ka wā Victorian a hiki i kēia manawa. Mai ka hoʻomakaʻana o ke kenekulia 20, ua hoʻomauʻia ka uluʻana o nā loleʻauʻau ma nāʻano a pau: ua piʻi a kiʻekiʻe nā pale; ua lilo kekahi ʻāpana i ʻelua ʻāpana; ua lilo nā pōkole pōkole; ua lilo nā piko pōkole i mau maʻa; ua lilo nā kaula i kaula. Ua hoʻololi mākou mai ka hulu hipa a i ka rayon, ka pulupulu, a me ka nylon a hiki i nā lole elastic Lycra. I kēia lā, hiki i kēlā mau fiber synthetic kiʻekiʻe ke kālai maʻalahi i ko mākou kiʻi a hoʻokuʻu iā mākou e ʻauʻau wale i ka wai. (ʻOiai ʻo nā lole ʻauʻau velvet photogenic i hoʻonani ʻia āu e ʻike ai ma Instagram ʻaʻole kūpono ia no ka hoʻomaka ʻana ma mua o nā hoʻolālā huluhulu o nā makahiki 1900.)

Ke nānā nei i hope i ka moʻolelo o nā lole ʻauʻau, ua maʻalahi ka ʻike ʻana e hoʻāʻo mau ka poʻe e hōʻike i ka mea maikaʻi loa ma kahakai. Akā ke ulu nei ka manawa, loaʻa iā mākou nā pilikia no mākou iho ma kekahi mau ʻano. No ka laʻana, ʻo Natalie Wood, Marilyn Monroe a me Grace Kelly i ʻaʻahu i nā lole ʻauʻau waistline a me nā bikini i nā makahiki 1950, ʻoi aku ka maʻalahi o ka ʻaʻahu ʻana ma mua o nā ʻano olohelohe i kaulana i nā makahiki 1970 a me 1980.

Mai nā kāʻei kāʻei o nā hōkū o ka makahiki gula o Hollywood a hiki i nā bikini ʻeleʻele liʻiliʻi o nā supermodels o kēia lā, ʻaʻole i loli ko lākou ʻano kiʻekiʻe. ʻOiai e nānā ana i ka ulu ʻana o ke kapa kahakai, no ke aha e koho ʻole ai i kāu wā ʻauʻau punahele?
