Marvin Schlepstein invented it and his cousin Flo promoted it during the 50's. Flo was a popular gal with all the beach hunks and Marvin went on to invent the thongless thong sandal and the sand repellant beach
towel. The towel did not go over very well, because it kept sliding up to the boardwalk.

The designers of the bikini were two Frenchmen named Jacques Heim and Louis Reard although I think Coco Chanel was credited with the promotion of it!

I forget the name but I know that they were named after the Bikini Islands, an old WMD testing site for the US during WWII.

Athletic women, in two-piece garments have been observed on Greek urns and paintings, dateing as early as 1400 BC.
Artwork, from over 1700 years ago, in Villa Romana del Casale, depicts women in garments, resembling bikinis.
I was shocked at this. Interesting though!
