At La Muda Club, we love celebrating the unusual, the fun and the cheeky, and there’s no better example of this than our #03 MANKINI piece. Designed in July 2019 in collaboration with talented Madrid-based artist Libertad Suárez , this boxer short captures the essence of summer fun with a touch of nostalgia and an irreverent nod to the iconic Borat movie .
Shamelessness in Every Detail: The Design of Boxer #03 MANKINI
The #03 MANKINI Boxer is a burst of colour and humour that brings the beach to your underwear. Featuring cheeky figures of people of all colours enjoying endearing and fun scenes, this design on a bright yellow background is full of energy and good humour. Every element of the design seems to want to break away from seriousness and routine, evoking those unforgettable summer holidays where the sun shines and worries evaporate.
What really sets these briefs apart is the unmistakable nod to the famous mankini that Sacha Baron Cohen immortalized in his mockumentary Borat: Cultural Learnings of America for Make Benefit Glorious Nation of Kazakhstan . The mankini, a V-shaped men’s swimwear garment held up at the shoulders by straps, was created by costume designer Jason Alper and quickly became a symbol of cheeky comedy and lack of intricacies. In the Boxer #03 MANKINI, this element becomes a playful homage that adds an extra layer of mischief to the design.
Sporting Mankini: Are You Into the Mankini?
This design is not just a garment, it is an invitation to relax, enjoy and not take life too seriously. The sun's rays are already light and annoying. Summer has arrived, it's the beach, and the sand shines like golden dust. A kind of paradise where time stands still, skin is tanned and people wear mankinis showing off their figure without complexes. Not even an out-of-control windsurfer is able to spoil this moment. Because it's time to relax, take a dip and dance. Wearing a Mankini, will you join the mankini?
