Borat’s Mankini Swimsuit a Hit in Japan

Whilst scanning the world of twitter for Mankini chatter I came across a blog entry from www.loneleeplanet.com that says that “Borat’s Mankini Swimsuit a Hit in Japan”. Whilst the images of the ladies in question point to PhotoShop, it did make me smile and so I thought I’d share it with you.
The author, Reesan (and Aussie who spends his time between Australia and Japan), says about his blog that “whilst you are likely to find anything on this blog, the main theme is about exposing wacky Japan.” This claim is backed up by his blog post “Shūkan Asahi and the Mankini”, a popular general-interest magazine that is displaying some ladies in Mankini’s that is definitely genuine.
While these ladies can’t be classed as official entrants into the International Mankini Challenge, I’d suggest that next time you’re in Japan with your Mankini that you look them up!
