While Andrew Christian has some nice designs in their underwear line, when it comes to swim thongs they only have one or two each year. I will admit that this year they pushed the design out more, for which I am happy. Last year they didn’t have any swim thongs in the lineup.
Yes I have found a couple items on Etsy. Again selection is limited, prices can be higher than I would like and some of the places things are shipping from have me wondering if they will ever arrive. For example I found a couple items that I liked. They shipped from Ukraine. I’ve never seen them.
As for what I would like to see: the use of chains, rhinestones, tie sides, cutouts and double and triple hip straps. When I do find something I like I tend to purchase it. Although I’ve seen a couple thongs that meet my likes and wants but the price for a single thong was above well $100. I’m not paying that kind of money for such a small piece of fabric.
