A thin black belt, with a soft plastic triangular clip hanging from the front. The tip of the tie - big end - folds over and attaches firmly. At the back, a straight clip gives you the option of folding over & tucking in, or leaving a long tail, or tying your favorite necktie knot. Although the position may make it difficult... you could get someone to help.

<clarification> While a different arrangement of the frontal fold could create a minimalistic codpiece, that is not the intent of this idea. I neglected to point out that this is supposed to be *ladies' swimwear*</clarification>

       Quoting my wife (on reading this idea; she's never had occasion to say it previously):   

       "But why would you want to use your _tie_ as a thong?"   

       [+] anyway; it works, my wife's entirely relevant question notwithstanding.

       Because, upon you giving it to her, she can avoid saying all the same things that you didn't say when she gave you the ugly thing.

       A Google Image search for "tie thong" is rewarding.

       //"But why would you want to use your _tie_ as a thong?"//   

       Imagine your wife shows up to a convention, then realizes she's completely naked. She's panicked, but then sees you. So she has you give her your jacket and tie, and she can claim to just be starting a new fashion trend.   

       (though we know what would really happen is you'd be persuaided to give up your pants and shirt, and when you realize you're not wearing underwear she'll tell you where you can put your tie)
