tan marks

Bikini line evidence

Tan marks are the visible lines on skin where tanned and untanned areas meet, created by clothing or swimwear blocking sun exposure.

They reveal the outline of whatever was worn: Her tan marks showed where her bikini straps had been.

Also called tan lines.

Tan marks can be considered attractive, embarrassing, or simply evidence of time spent outdoors.
