The bunny suit meets the sari. That, in a nutshell, is what India’s first Playboy bunnies will be wearing, once the first Playboy Club opens in India next year.

The original bunny suit – the outfit worn by waitresses in Playboy Clubs – was co-designed in the 1960s by Hugh Hefner, founder of Playboy magazine. It consists of a corset, a collar, bunny ears and a fluffy tail.

The Indian version is far more conservative, in keeping with local cultural sensitivities. The bunnies will be wearing full-length sheer skirts and tube tops with fabric draped over one of their shoulders. All else stays. Designed by Mohini Tadikonda, a New-York based fashion designer, the Indian version of the Playboy Bunny was unveiled at a press conference Wednesday in Mumbai.
