Brazilian cut

Revealing bikini style

Brazilian cut refers to a style of women's underwear or swimwear that exposes more of the buttocks than standard cuts, with a narrower back panel that sits higher on the hips.

The coverage falls between full-bottom styles and thongs: She preferred the Brazilian cut bikini for tanning.

The term extends to Brazilian wax, a hair removal style that removes most or all pubic hair—both named for their association with Brazilian beach culture.
