Swimwear Trends To Look Out For

IANS, 14 Jul, 2017 12:15 PM
    Experiment with your swimwear and invest in one-piece swimsuits with D-rings and laces, halter pieces and colourful bikinis, say experts.
     
     
    Rosmin Kunnathottathil, co-founder of tlslingerie.com (online lingerie store) and Naaila Khan, fashion editor at Zapyle.com, have listed the latest trends:
     
     
    * One-piece design: If you feel shy in exposing your whole body, the one-piece swimsuit design is the perfect solution for you. They will cover the large part of women's body and provide a confident look. 
     
     
     
     
    From using D-rings and laces to connect the front and back-end, and incorporating novel wrap designs to hide the midsection, side designed one-piece are a great solution if you want to skip the bikini.
     
     
    * The mini tee: In 2016, halter and sports bra-style tops were a rage. This year is all about the mini tee. Whether the sleeves are ruffled and off-the-shoulder, or full-shoulder caps, it amps the entire look. 
     
     
    * Bikini: There are a lot of styles when it comes to bikini wear for you to experiment with. 
     
     
     
     
    The halter: Instead of two flimsy strings barely holding up around your neck, you could try a top style that offers more support. The trick is to get your halter in a bold colour - a busy pattern can sometimes look too old school.
     
     
    The Bandeau: For those girls more lightly endowed on the chest, the bandeau is a great on-trend style to try. However, if you pick a very juvenile design, you might end up looking like that awkward six-year old with arm floaties in the pool. The different kind of bandeaus include cover-ups and kimonos, bustiers and there are some colourful prints available too. 
     
     
    * One strap bras: One-piece, one strap trend is something that make great bodysuits for your after-beach dinner.
