If you stroll past Jack & Jill Boutique (115 S. 22nd) this weekend and see topless mannequins in the window, it’s not a mistake. It’s a new line of bottoms-only bikinis for women from ANJ Swimwear which wants Philadelphians to experience a bit of St. Tropez and Brazil when they wear swimsuits this summer. Jack & Jill owner Anh Nguyen and partner Janice Lim created the line, which is priced between $75 and $200 per piece, as well as matching cover-ups. For you shy ladies, or those not wishing to be arrested for going topless, matching tops can also be purchased.
Pictured above is Anh Nguyen modeling various pieces from the swimwear line. She will not be in the window.

YOU are a topless (Headless-brainless) mannequin, Danno.
Right King ??
excellent pictures! great article, keep up the good work!
Some or your finest work, Dan. Well done.
Great read. I laughed, I cried, I went to the washy wash...
^ Ha, TTso! I don't know if I've ever stopped in Jack & Jill. I also don't know if I want to see the majority of Philadelphians in those things. If you don't have a body like Anh, please pass on this one.
I saw bottomless male mannequins at Express a few weejks ago. they were changing the clothes on them and they appeared to be anotomically correct and well-endowed like gay strippers.
Someone correct my spelling. I'm too tired to even care anymore.
I hope express puts out bottomlesssssss men's bathing suits too.
My new line of swimwear is going to be out next year - Rosie by Rosie. They will use ols pickle barrels in the display window wearing bathing suits. It’s more realistic.
She looks hot in that Candystripe top, but hotter would be NO top; that said, she's a lil short on the Cameltoe. She reminds me of Asia Carerra in a way, and with a shop named Jack 'n Jill my imagination starts to wander... If she wants to sell a ton of this stuff she should market these suits to men and work topless in her shop, Now, that's what I call a Happy Ending! BooYahh!
"Me love you looong time" - sorry but I had to go there.
This looks like a picture of one of the performers from Jaded Lounge to me.
ancient Chinese secret, huh?
wasn't she in the 2 live crew video? ah, me soo h....
KING~out
