The Best Swimwear Trends to Wear Now


Your summer vacation is likely only a matter of weeks away, so don’t get caught out leaving your swimsuit purchase until last. Arguably, it’s the most essential item on any packing list, and now is the perfect time to snag a head-turning style that will live on in photos long after your trip is over. From flattering cuts to supportive fits, there's plenty out there to complete your wanderlust-inspired looks.


Wondering what’s in style for 2023? From one-shoulder wonders to metallic bikinis and retro maillots to trend-led cut-outs, the season delivers a host of swimwear trends to elevate your vacation look. Forget functional silhouettes designed only for the water. These statement styles look more like city-ready bodysuits that will effortlessly transition from the beach to a sunset dinner—just tie on a sarong or throw on a slip dress and you're good to go. In short, our SS23 edit offers a multitude of knockout swimwear trends worth building your entire off-duty rotation around. Just add water.


Metallic Bikinis

Blame it on Mermaidcore, the TikTok trend that's currently running rampant, but can't-miss metallics are currently a thing. Not convinced? Consider how these glimmering fabrics reflect the sun and you'll be hooked.



One Shoulder Swimsuits

Subtle statements don't get chicer than this. Offering more than a classic suit, and updated with an asymmetric cut, this silhouette is ever-flattering and always in style.



Cut-Out Swimsuits

Since swimwear trends often follow runway looks, this addition should come as no surprise. Not for the faint of heart, these revealing options offer an unequivocally bold, confident edge.



Athletic Swimsuits

Updated with playful motifs, designer logos, and bold solid hues, these are no longer a simple, classic option. Slipping into a Burberry or Versace print will take your one-piece to the next level.



Long-Sleeve Swimsuits

If you prefer some coverage, this is the look for you. More flattering than a rash guard, it's the perfect option for anyone planning water-bound adventures.



Retro Silhouettes

Featuring halternecks, nipped waists, and vintage floral prints, these flattering options pay homage to 1950s beach glamour.


 

Underwired Bikinis

Look no further for an understated supportive option with an of-the-moment edge. 



High-Waist Bikinis

If you're looking for a little extra coverage, but can't move on from your two-piece, this is the perfect compromise—high-waist bikini briefs will be everywhere this summer.



Embellished Swimwear

A logo here, a chain belt there...metals aren't usually considered a practical underwater adornment. These evening-ready options work best after dusk.
