The best swimwear trends to wear this summer
Are these longer, warmer days making you dream about summer? Now that the holidays have been booked, there’s only one thing left to do: figure out what to wear!
If you need swimwear inspo, look no further: here are the six swimwear trends that, according to the experts, will rock beaches all around the world this summer.
Floral appliqués and rosettes will be everywhere this summer! It’s Polish designer Magda Butrym who popularised this trend, which adds a touch of old-school romance to any beach look.
Style it with classic accessories like straw hats and vintage-inspired sunglasses, and pair it with sarongs and high-waisted shorts.
2. Chocolate browns
Brown has been the it-colour for a while now, and it’s definitely not going anywhere.
Chocolate brown swimwear is a chic, timeless choice that has virtually no downsides: it’s elegant, super flattering on a wide range of skin tones, elevated, and it adds a contemporary feel to classic silhouettes.
From deep browns to soft mochas, brown shades are a sleek and effortless choice for swimwear this summer.

If you’re not too keen on accessories, consider going for a swimsuit with built-in hardware. Waist chains, decorative hoops, and shiny clasps are securely attached—goodbye to losing jewellery at the beach!—and will give you the glitz and glamour you’re looking for.
90s minimalism is all the rage this year, and that includes swimwear. The classic black bikini reigns supreme, especially when featuring high-hip cheeky bottoms. Sporty, clean styles are what to look out for.
