Bikini season is officially upon us. Whether it is a trip to the Hamptons, the Jersey Shore, a tropical getaway, or maybe just the pool in your backyard there is a slim chance that you will not be in a swimsuit this summer. So, what are the trends that are leading the pack in swimwear? Lex Loves Couture has the complete rundown.
Cutouts
I like to call this one “hello weird a** tan lines” because it is inevitable with this type of swimsuit. Tan lines aside, cutouts are one of the leading trends and a must have for your next beach day.
High Waist Bottom
Retro-inspired and flattering for almost every body type. You cannot go wrong with a high waist bottom.
Monokini
The true purpose of a monokini is unclear, but one thing that cannot be denied is that you will look pretty darn sexy in one!
90’s One Piece
Baywatch called they want their swimsuit back! I never thought I would see the day one-pieces made a comeback, but the trend is back with a vengeance.
High Neck Halter
This is perfect for the sporty girls who like to do something other than read gossip magazines and tan on the beach. You do not need to be sporty to wear it, but active girls will just reap more of the benefits.
Ruffles
Dainty, pretty, looks great in pictures…what more can you ask for?
Mesh Inserts
This trend is a way to show a lot of skin without showing a lot of skin. It is a great alternative to the cutout option (no weird a** tan lines ::insert thumbs up emoji here::)
Bralette
The bralette is also a great option for said sporty girl. It gives the same exposure as a regular bikini, but things are more secure if you catch my drift.
Classic Triangle Top
It’s been on a bit of a hiatus, but with the 70’s being such a hot trend the triangle bikini top is making a major return!
