Pride V Sling LGBT Mankini

Somewhere between Pride parade menace, vintage physique-pageant fantasy and “the dress code said swimwear, not restraint,” the Pride V Sling LGBT Mankini is what happens when a rainbow decides subtlety is homophobic.

This is not shy gay swimwear. It is a barely-there rainbow sling mankini built around long, stretchy shoulder straps, an outrageously low-cut front and a tiny pouch that leaves approximately zero room for ambiguity about why you wore it. The multicolour design traces the body from shoulder to groin, framing the chest, torso, hips and backside while doing the absolute minimum required to qualify as clothing. Camp? Deeply. Sexy? Obviously. Appropriate for a conservative family barbecue? We would need to know your family.

Made from a flexible polyester and spandex blend, this rainbow men's sling bodysuit stretches around the body for a close, body-skimming fit. The long V-shaped straps visually lengthen the torso while putting pecs, stomach, hips and everything adjacent firmly on display. It has the swagger of retro men's posing gear, the shamelessness of queer fetishwear and the chaotic optimism of someone who has already decided the afterparty starts at 2 pm.

Wear it as a gay Pride mankini, outrageous festival outfit, queer pool-party look, circuit-party sling, sexy men's bodysuit or wonderfully unnecessary piece of rainbow kinkwear. Add sunglasses and trainers for Pride-day chaos, layer it under tiny shorts for a reveal nobody requested but everyone will remember, or pair it with a harness, boots and body glitter when “too much” is precisely the brief.

There is also something deliciously old-school about the silhouette. Before tiny swim briefs became respectable holiday packing, there were posing straps, wrestling singlets, bodybuilding trunks and various heroic attempts by men to use three centimetres of fabric as an entire outfit. This LGBT rainbow V sling takes that lineage, paints it Pride colours and sends it directly to the gay pool party.

Despite the product's traditionally masculine styling, there is no compulsory gender attached to looking spectacular in almost no fabric. The stretchy construction makes this queer sling bodysuit suitable for a wide range of bodies and gender expressions, whether your energy is masc muscle boy, femme exhibitionist, non-binary club creature, leather-adjacent menace or simply “I paid for the whole Pride weekend and intend to be visible from space.”

This one understands the assignment with absolutely no interest in toning it down.
