As we dream of sun-soaked beaches and cocktails by the sea, it's the perfect time to browse online sales for that ideal swimsuit. Winter clearances make it even better—and this year, one-piece styles are leading the charge.
Once sidelined in the 1990s amid the tanning craze, the trikini—a seductive hybrid of one-piece and bikini that highlights the hips—is making a triumphant return. It flatters by sculpting the hips and accentuating a wasp waist, delivering undeniable sex appeal. No beach bag is complete without one this season.
Beyond shape, patterns define standout swimsuits. After years of solids, floral prints are surging back, while emerging 2021 hits, as showcased on Livia's site, feature elegant relief textures set to dominate summer sales as top sellers.
Riding the 1970s wave, swimwear designers are channeling retro glamour. Think James Bond girl vibes with high-waisted bikini bottoms or one-piece swimsuits cinched with belts—timeless pieces that enhance curves and streamline the silhouette.
Echoing vintage inspired by the 1960s Saint-Tropez era, collections emphasize clean, straight lines in one-pieces and draped bandeau bikinis. These back-to-basics designs offer effortless elegance for modern wardrobes.
Surprisingly, sporty one-pieces are trading pools for shorelines. Once strictly for laps and aquafit, these leg-skimming styles now blend body-conforming fits with refined fabrics and cuts, empowering a sleek, athletic look perfect for leisure.
