Pimpettes!
A pimpette would mean a small imitation female pimp. But these beauties must be joking, because they are not completely small, and they are probably not pimps either.
Adding "ette", from the old French, to an English word is a common method to append the word and designate feminine, diminutive size, or imitation characteristics. A kitchenette is a small kitchen. Leatherette is imitation leather. A sermonette is a short sermon. The Rockettes are the famous Radio City Music Hall dancers.
A pimp is commonly a man who finds customers for female prostitues. Pimp has more recently become a verb for promoting yourself, usually online. The 2005 movie Hustle And Flow features the Academy Award winning song, It's Hard Out Here For A Pimp.
