Playboy worms its way into India with redesigned Bunny costumes

Playboy magazine might be banned in India, but its trademark Bunnies are about to make their first appearance. The company has redesigned its signature costumes to show maximum T&E (tail and ears) but only reveal a modest show of skin. Unlike their American counterparts, the Indian Bunnies will skip the corsets in favor of a two-piece sari, which features a sheer, full-length skirt. "Being able to introduce our brand in a responsible and meaningful way in India was our key objective," said Matthew Nordby, Playboy's executive vice president. Indian officials have threatened to close the country's still-unopened inaugural Playboy Club if the Bunnies flash too much flesh. [Source]
