Teen models make colorful splash in bikini fashion show

Japanese Bikini Babes


Swimsuit manufacturer San-ai held a new collection show on Saturday in Tokyo's Ginza, where teen models walked down the catwalk wearing colorful bikinis.



Among the six models who posed in 30 new swimsuits on the stage at the Nishi Ginza Department Store were Chiaki Tani, the company's 19-year-old swimsuit model for 2008, and Aoi Nakabeppu, Toray's 17-year-old swimsuit model for 2008.



In addition to brightly colored swimsuits made under this year's theme of "Colorful Splash," bikinis printed with striking designs -- such as leopard spots, stripes and retro flowers -- were unveiled at the show as well as swimsuits co-produced by popular fashion magazines.
