number 10 Miss January 1969
Leslie Bianchini

On her data sheet, Leslie listed gardening as one of her turn-ons. If she tended to her flowers in nothing but a bra, or whatever she was wearing to give her these incredible tan lines, gardening would also be a turn-on to every heterosexual male in her neighborhood.

About the only thing that could distract us from Kai's incredible beehive hairdo would be a gorgeous tan-lined rear, which she most definitely possesses, thanks to some full-coverage bikini bottoms. Or maybe they were granny panties? Either way, the results are breathtaking.

The top tan line is so pristine that if it weren't for her nipple, you'd swear she was actually wearing the upper half of a white bikini. As for the bottom tan line, we're pretty sure this 98-pound waif had no need for a girdle, but whatever it was, we love it!

Sally loved being a Playmate "because it's a financially rewarding means to satisfy my exhibitionist tendencies!" Thankfully she wasn't a total exhibitionist, otherwise she probably wouldn't have had these utterly stunning full-cup string-bikini tan lines.

Clearly, tan lines and bikini bottoms that went as high as possible over the hips in order to elongate the legs were still fashionable when this photo was taken. Not long afterward, all things '80s went out of style, which as this picture proves, is a damn shame.

Did sports bras even exist in the late '60s? Chances are that Lorna got her tan lines from a run-of-the-mill (albeit undeniably groovy) bikini top that shared the same styling as a modern-day sports bra. And the disappearing straps are definitely intriguing.

Here's an impressive example of some backside tan lines reminiscent of the famous Coppertone suntan oil ads from the '50s. It's entirely possible that Sharon's bottom had never been exposed to the sun for even a nanosecond. And we wouldn't have it any other way.

Another awesome presentation of the full-cup string-bikini tan line, made even more so by the Native American accessories, both on Ellen's body and in the background. Our only issue with the body jewelry is that it blocks the view of her tan-lined hips.

Lovely Linda definitely has perfect breasts that deserves to be set free and put on display as often as possible, but we're happy she decided to keep her bikini top on while sunbathing before this photo was taken. Her chest wouldn't be quite as eye-popping without the tan lines.

The eyes, the hat, the hair, the perfect body—there's a lot here to distract the viewer from the subjects at hand. Which, of course, are the tan lines. The strapless, cup-only configuration on top is definitely delightful. Below the waist, the contrasting colors are a wonder to behold.
