Awful, but totally viral: the ‘towelkini’ is a thing

towelkini, towel and swimsuit in one in pink and yellow

It's ridiculous, grotesque, and absurdly convenient all in one: a bath towel that also serves as your swimsuit. Yes, the towelkini is super hot right now. Why? Because we find everything that borders on absurdism interesting, I guess. It's an absolute horror among  bikini lovers by the way, because the garment made of terry cloth covers your belly, back, and even part of your arms. Is it a joke? Nobody knows. How do you swim in it? Nobody knows. Are there really people who wear this? Nobody knows. And the worst part of all this: the thing costs almost TWO. HUNDRED. DOLLARS. HOW. THEN?!

P.S.: If you think: ha, I've been waiting for this brilliant invention for years, hurry up then, because the thing seems to be almost sold out too. How then two point zero. Please.
