The 6 Best SWIMWEAR Trends of 2018 (That are here to stay!)

It's officially the season of all things wonderful; sea, sun, swim and SPRITZ! Our long-awaited vacation is mere weeks away (Eeek!) and we literally CANNOT wait. In the meantime, we're busy planning our summer wardrobes (or should I say, SWIM wardrobes?).

This year has surprised us with some of the best swimwear trends to date, from high-waisted bikini bottoms, to retro one-pieces (It's TBT all season long!) Have a look at our favorite swimwear trends this year, and the classic pieces we’re adding to our swimsuit collections.

1. High Waisted

The high-waisted bottoms trend that we’ve been seeing in every magazine has finally made its way to the beach, and we couldn’t be happier! This retro look isn’t only totally on trend, it’s universally flattering and gives you legs for DAYS. Convinced yet? This classic two-piece by Matteau Swim will turn heads everywhere you go, and be a swim staple you can wear for years to come.

Buy it here.

2. One-Piece

One-piece swimsuits are having a major moment on the swimwear scene, and it’s a trend we’re totally on board with. The classic silhouette with its plunging neck line and low back is quick becoming the LBD of swimwear. This reversible pair by SKIN is a favorite of ours and gives you the option of going black OR nude. Win!

3. Crochet

Thanks to New York based swimwear brand, KIINI, crochet is back and here to stay! Their brightly woven, one-of-a-kind swimsuits will make waves at the beach, and have your back in the trend department for years to come.

Buy it here.

4. Stripes

It's so colorful you can almost taste it (Can't you?!) The rainbow trend has made it's way from t-shirts to bags, and now swimwear. This one-piece by Solid & Striped has all the trends combined in one; a plunging neckline, a low-back, and jolly rainbow hues that will pop on white sandy beaches.

Buy it here.

5. Minimalist

This next swimsuit trend is right up our alley, a style we’ve been incorporating in our closets for years; minimalist. We love wearing classic minimal pieces that are understated...but in a good way. I recently discovered a brand that produces ONLY minimalist and clean designs that are not only flattering, but insanely stylish too. I instantly fell in love with this white one-piece by JADE Swim and added it to my summer swim wardrobe.

Buy it here.

6. Scallops

The scallop trend is still going strong, and who does it better than the one and only Marysia? Their scalloped Broadway bikini is a swim staple and an edgier version of the original triangle bikini we all used to wear and love. You better add one to your collection now, 'cause we can't see this trend going anywhere anytime soon.

We hope you enjoyed reading about our favorite swimsuit trends! We would love to hear from you, so comment and tell us which trend is your favorite, or which swimsuit you'll be adding to your swimwear collection this summer.
