Bronzette, monoï et bikini… à la piscine comme à la plage, baignade rime avec détente et légèreté. Pourtant, cette pratique a longtemps été vue d’un mauvais œil et le vêtement de bain n’a conquis nos garde-robes qu’assez récemment. Hantées par les récits mythologiques, nos sociétés se sont construites dans la crainte de l’eau, laquelle faisait écho la peur du féminin, associé à l’humidité et l’étrangeté. Il nous a fallu des siècles pour apprivoiser les flots, et ce n’est qu’à la fin du XIXe que la baignade et la natation se démocratisent, ouvrant la voie au développement d’une nouvelle industrie : celle du maillot de bain, qui fera fi de la pudeur et participera au découvrement des corps. Mais si les femmes se libèrent progressivement d’une invisibilisation millénaire, c’est pour mieux subir les injonctions une beauté normée, une perfection inatteignable, poussant à l’épilation et aux régimes en vue du fameux summer body. De la chemise de bain au burkini en passant par le bikini et le monokini, Audrey Millet démontre avec impertinence que le maillot de bain est une pièce moins futile et plus politique qu’il n’y paraît. À travers son histoire, c’est une relecture des normes de genre et du rapport au corps qu’elle nous propose

"This study of the Sports Illustrated swimsuit issue demonstrates how the magazine encourages individual and institutional practices that create and maintain inequality. Laurel Davis illustrates how the interactions of media production, media texts, media consumption, and social context influence meaning. Individuals' interpretations of and reactions to the magazine and influenced by their views about gender and sexuality, views that have been shaped by their social experiences. Based on extensive interviews with Sports Illustrated producers and consumers, as well as analysis of every swimsuit issue from the first in 1964 to those of the 1990s, the book argues that Sports Illustrated uses the swimsuit issue to secure a large male audience by creating a climate of dominant masculinity. This practice produces considerable profit but on the way to the bank tramples women, gays, lesbians, people of color, and residents of the postcolonialized world."--Jacket.
