Genius Idea: Bikini Vending Machines

How many times have you gone on a trip and either forgotten to bring a swimsuit or just not bothered because you didn't think you'd be logging any pool time? Well, now, Quiksilver and hotelier Andre Balazs have come up with a clever and handy solution to that dilemma: the two are teaming up to create cobranded men's and women's swimsuits (board shorts and bikinis) that will be sold in poolside vending machines at Balazs' four Standard Hotels. And making the whole concept even more fabulous, the machines will also sell zines and inexpensive works of art from local artists.
