The thong is a garment generally used as either underwear or in some countries, as a swimsuit. It may also be worn for traditional ceremonies or competitions.
Viewed from the front, the thong typically resembles a bikini bottom, but at the back the material is reduced to a minimum. Thongs are almost always designed to cover the genitals, anus, and perineum and leave part or most of the buttocks uncovered. The back of the garment typically consists of a thin waistband and a thin strip of material, designed to be worn between the buttocks, that connects the middle of the waistband with the bottom front of the garment. It is also used as a descriptive term in other types of garment, such as a bodysuit, bodystocking, leotard, or one-piece swimsuit, with the meaning "thong-backed".
One type of thong is the G-string, the back of which consists only of a (typically elasticized) string. The two terms G-string and thong are often used interchangeably; however, they can refer to distinct pieces of clothing. Thongs come in a variety of styles depending on the thickness, material or type of the rear portion of fabric and are used by both men and women throughout most of the world.
A tanga is a pair of briefs consisting of small panels connected by strings at the sides. There are tanga briefs both for men and for women. The style and the word come from Brazil.

Are they adorable? Yes. Are they vastly overpriced for a PVC shoe? Also yes, but that’s expected for designer. I did not want to love these shoes but I really do. They are quality and do not feel flimsy. I am a US size 8 and ordered a size 39 and the fit is perfect. I have a narrow foot which looks good in the shoe – not sure how it would look on a wider foot so definitely try them on if you’re able. I’m rating these four stars because I love them despite my better judgement and the fact that you can probably get something cheaper that looks similar.

I have been wanting these thongs for a while and finally purchased. Was able to use my Nordstrom notes to help decrease the cost which is really great; thanks Nordstrom! I wanted the black but purchased the blush because it was the only choice with my size. Since receiving the blush I really like them. I was so hesitant to purchase because they are so expensive for a PVC shoe, but I just decided to do it. I read a lot of reviews and ordered a size up; I usually take a 38.5 in a European shoe so I ordered the size 39. So glad I ordered the 39 because they fit perfectly. I also have a narrow foot and these are perfect for the width, they are not big at all. In summary, order a size up because the shoes are short; it is a narrow fit. All in all I am happy with the shoe and cannot wait to wear them.
