As travel picks up just in time for summer, nude and topless sunbathers who are looking for their next vacation spot now have two maps to help them decide where to go.
Swimwear and lingerie brand Pour Moi recently released two sunbathing guides – one for the world and one for the U.S. – to help people decide which countries and states allow nude or topless sunbathing.
“We know a lot of our customers like to ditch their swimsuit when they sunbathe, and with tentative steps being made towards international travel opening up, we wanted to help people find out where you can and can’t go topless when you sunbathe,” Pour Moi’s founder Michael Thompson said in a statement provided to Fox News.
SUPER REALISTIC MUSCLE SUIT HITS THE MARKET
“We’re a U.K. company and Brits are stereotyped as being quite prude, but it’s not true, a lot of us love to embrace more naturist ways in the sunshine,” Thompson added. “It’s been fun comparing which countries are most interested in sunbathing naked, versus what the actual nudity laws are in that country.”
