While Moral Guardians have been complaining about swimsuits showing too much skin as long as there have been swimsuits, this trope really took off after the introduction of the bikini. To qualify, a swimsuit must be described or reacted to in terms of how small it is, or how much it shows. For example, if the text claims it's "two postage stamps and some dental floss", or onlookers are shown having their eyes bug out. Note that this trope is not any swimsuit which the audience thinks is unusually small, it must be reacted to as such within the story. Examples of Barely-There Swimwear include:

  • While Moral Guardians have been complaining about swimsuits showing too much skin as long as there have been swimsuits, this trope really took off after the introduction of the bikini. To qualify, a swimsuit must be described or reacted to in terms of how small it is, or how much it shows. For example, if the text claims it's "two postage stamps and some dental floss", or onlookers are shown having their eyes bug out. The swimsuit does not actually need to be worn for this trope -- displaying it to someone who asks "where's the rest of it" or declares "no daughter of mine is wearing such a thing!" qualifies. Note that this trope is not any swimsuit which the audience thinks is unusually small, it must be reacted to as such within the story. Compare Thong of Shielding. Contrast with the Old-Timey Bathing Suit. Examples of Barely-There Swimwear include:
