Obviously not a bikini or swimsuit. :)

(By the way, this isn't a dig a Emma and Jordi. I have lots of their products.)

Anyone have similar instances that made them smile, or even laugh?

    He rose swiftly through the ranks in the military to become the supreme commander. As a diplomat, leader, warrior, loyal servant, trusted adviser, and guardian of the kingdom, he was a compassionate mentor to the millions he governed. This dynamic pose set covers a broad spectrum of his life and times.

    Oh yes, nicely written; and compassion, not a troll-thing - hence the chuckle for me. :)

    But... it IS a bikini. With chains connecting top and bottom.

    It should at least be called a swimsuit. Otherwise it'll be hard to search for and find in the store

    That's what search tags are for otherwise you would need the words 'man' or 'male' in the title if you were looking for male figures. Or maybe the word 'dress' in the title when you are looking for a dress.

    When I search for Bikini in the store, the Tropical Outfit is the first thing in the list.

    Personally I like the name; having a chuckle whilst I shop for skimp-wear is always good.

    it reminds me of that line from Woody Allen in Take the Money and Run:
    after thirty years of service, was catapulted to the rank of corporal.

    Glad to see keyword  search works. Too often it doesn't.

    Maybe I'm weird, but the first thing I thought of when I saw the name was a linen shirt, shorts and a pith helmet.

    I was so disappointed...

    It was an honest expectation with a name like that, but it turned out to be wrong. I was thinking it was a lightweight dress; boy was I off.

    Yeah I was thinking a short sun dress with a bright floral pattern.

    Maitre D': No swimsuits in the restaurant, young lady.

    G3F: But sir, this is a "tropical outfit".

    The 'Fantasy Wine Cellar' name made me smile. As far as I can tell, it's just... a wine cellar. Maybe it's the invisible dragons and unicorns that put the 'fantasy' into it :)

    Here is another item that made me laugh: Winter Warrior! http://www.daz3d.com/winter-warrior-for-genesis-2-female-s

    Neither winter - the poor thing would not last five minutes in that outfit during a real winter day.
    Nor warrior, the first bullet would down her.

    Here is a winter warrior in my world:

    The one that threw me was Headshop http://www.daz3d.com/headshop-10-win

    Isn't that a store where people buy rolling papers, etc?

    BTW, that Tropical outfit would be like wearing a big fishing lure with the chains and hanging jewelry for the belly button...

    The faraway suit at rendo

    Seriously, I've seen more material in a bikini.

    So I suppose it is far and away from being a suit. :)

    I was rendering a funny tropical outfit scene when my computer died. apparently too much for it to handle...

    Yeah, that was a popular term in the 70s-80s for stores where one could purchase paraphernalia to further their enjoyment of their psychedelic journeys.

    I had to wonder what was wrong with the original name "Faceshop"...?

    Tropical outfit is just the sort of name I like. It's good advertising done in a non-offensive way. When you hear tropical outfit you think of a person dressed in a cool, breezy outfit enjoying the tropical climes.

    I've never been a pot smoker but I did visit headshops in Zurich from time to time to buy incense and related supplies for the soapstone incense burner I bought at one once.
