Cut Outs

The cut-out trend has returned to our shores for another season, and it’s one we have welcomed with open arms. From stunning backless swimsuit styles to asymmetric cut outs, this trend adds interest and dimension to the classic silhouettes we know and love whilst accentuating your figure and showing a little more skin.

Staple Styles

Get back to basics with a timeless swimsuit that will remain on trend season after season. To level up this classic look, opt for a luxurious textured fabric and flattering details such as high-rise bottoms and waist panelling to accentuate your figure and elongate your legs. A quality black one piece is a must have in your summer swimsuit collection or indulge in new season colour palettes and explore crisp whites, soft blues and gorgeous pinks.

Crochet

For an opulent, boho-inspired alternative to the classic swimsuit, we can’t go past the ever-popular crochet trend. Combining delicately detailed crochet knit fabric with flattering cuts, a crochet one piece is an ideal pick to seamlessly transition from the pool party to the after party with the addition of your favourite pair of flowing wide leg pants or maxi skirt and leather sandals.
