Rose di Primo (born on 1955-03-06) was the hottest brazilian model during the 1970s. She claims that she invented the "tanga" in Ipanema Beach - tanga was the precursor to the g-string. She vanished in the mid-1980s because of the competition with newstart nude models and actresses who were 15 to 17 years old.
Rose di Primo, stage name of Rosimary Souza Primo, invented the tanga when she was 13 years old. Of course there are no pictures from that time - people didn't bring cameras to the beaches like today. Last time people knew about her, she was living in Spain, a religious woman, married to a man 20 years younger than her.
