Swimwear trends you need..NOW!
Retro Vibes
Pay homage to the era of Madonna, loud colours and sexy pieces with these lime green and pink togs from Glassons. The high hips on the bikini bottoms is of course also reminiscent of the 1980’s, whilst the bandeau keeps things a little more modern. Expect to see bright colours like orange and in your face prints like leopard print on the runway and by the beach this Summer.
The Sporty Sister
Remember when athletic togs used to be daggy and reserved only for swimming laps? Not anymore! With luxe athletic brands like P.E Nation now delving into the world of swimwear, you can look sporty and hot all at once in one pieces like this white number. With subtle colour blocking and a zipper that can reveal as much or as little cleavage as you like, you’re bound to turn a few heads whether you swim in these for fitness or for fun.
Sun Safe yet Sexy
Unfortunately, a lot of women tend to favour aesthetics over being sun smart when it comes to choosing a new pair of togs. It’s why brands like Une Piece (pictured) designed the sexy rashie – so women can enjoy looking and feeling good whilst avoiding a nasty sunburn. Whilst they’re a little bit more expensive than other togs on the market, their high-quality Italian fabric will flatter you in all the right places.
The Cover Up Queen
Of course, we couldn’t talk about all things swimwear without discussing the things we throw over our togs – like this gorgeous Kaftan and hat by Camilla. The bright colours jazz up a plain white bikini, whilst remaining a little more a) sun safe and b) appropriate if you need to duck into the shops after your post beach swim.
High Waisted Hottie
Once upon a time, people used to be mocked for wearing ‘granny’ bikinis if they favoured a high waisted bikini bottom but when it looks this good.. nobody will dare to say a thing. We love this Zimmermann combination – the bottoms keep the look more modest while the off the shoulder frilled top gives it an element of playfulness. A great option for those wanting something a little more covered, but still sexy and fun!
