7 of the Wackiest Bathing Suits Ever
We've seen some pretty "out there" swim attire at the beach-unzipped daisy dukes, high heel-bikini combos, thongs, mesh cover-ups, and too tiny briefs on men, for example-but nothing compares to these wacky wardrobe additions. Take a look at the unusual beachwear we found and prepare to be amazed.
The Borat Mankini
Borat Mankini Swimsuit, Amazon, $14
This barely-there bathing suit for men was made popular by Sacha Baron Cohen's Kazakh television reporter character, Borat. We appreciate his "out of the box" creativity, but if we never see another man in this all-too-revealing neon piece of floss, it's fine with us.

The Fancy Kitty Monokini
Cheetah Monokini, ModCloth, $125
Between the multicolored cat print, red ruffles lining the bust, oddly shaped cutouts, and bright bow placed smack in the middle of this one-piece wonder, we're not sure where to look, except away.

The Dissolvable Bikini
The Dissolvable Bikini, Revenge Shop, 10 €
Watch as this dissolvable bikini falls to pieces after three minutes in water. This suit is good for dares, bachelorette party gifts, honeymoons on secluded islands, and April Fool's Day pranksters.

The Sci-Fi Face
Iron Fist Zombie Chomper Bikini Top and Bottom, Hot Topic, $20 each
If Katy Perry's "California Gurls" and Michael Jackson's "Thriller" made musical love, this zombie print two piece would be their baby.

The Built In Bottle Opener
Bottle Betty Bikini Top and Bottom, Bottle Betty, $37 each
There are bottle opener sandals for men, so it's only fair that Bottle Betty supplied a patent-pending built -n bottle opener on the top and on the bottom of this bikini. Phew! We really hate reaching for the bottle opener. That would break our rule of not working while on vacation.

The Sequined Peacock
La Perla Sequined Peacock-Print Swimsuit, Net-A-Porter, $610
Peacock print, sequins, and cutouts, OH MY. We'll need a few cocktails from the swim up bar before we can begin to digest this eyesore. Did we mention it costs $610?
Score the perfect beach look for less than $100!
The Western Barbie Costume
'80s Hot Pink Deep V Fringe Swimsuit, Etsy, $25
If you happen to be attending a Cowgirl Barbie pool party this summer, this is the suit for you. Best when served up with bleached blonde hair extensions and Lucite peep toe pumps. Yee-haw!
