Best designer swimwear trends today? Leisurely, unplanned shopping trips are great if you’re strolling through a flea market or browsing the racks at a vintage store. But if you’re looking for a swimsuit, you need a game plan: Do you want a bikini or a one-piece? A neutral or print? Padded or not padded? Halter or bandeau? Barely there or conservative? Few designers meet more of those needs than Giejo’s Gabby Sabharwal, who offers everything from string bikinis and high-waisted briefs to sporty tanks, retro maillots, and cutout bralettes, all in eye-popping prints.
Shopping for swimwear can often be a frustrating and uninspiring task. Due to our lack of sunshine and summer in general, there’s not much of a market for beautiful bathing suits on this side of the water. As such, more and more people are looking to US brands for their holiday attire, where the choice and designs are much more wide ranging – and beautiful. Here are seven of the best US swimwear brands you need to know about this summer. Cute but not cutesy, Reformation’s dose of gingham, stripes and candy hues are right on trend whilst the high waists, low backs and tie fronts are more reminiscent of the coquettish Fifties, helping you to cut a Marilyn- esque figure on the beach. Hailing from downtown LA, this eight- year- old brand is focused on producing swimwear that’s ethically sourced and produced. Read even more info at swimwear.
From hip hop to spinning and everything in between, these days you can pretty much find a different kind of workout for each day of the week. And while the latest crop of cardio classes and cross-training routines make hitting the gym more fun (finally), they also take a little more planning in the wardrobe department…because you can’t wear that tired old middle-school-tee-and-soccer-short-combo every day. You just can’t. So, because we’re firm believers that when you look good, you feel good (and if there’s anywhere you need to feel good, it’s the gym), we’ve put together five super cute and functional outfits, each geared toward a different activity. Click through to see it all, and get that activewear collection started—you’ll be surprised how motivated you’ll feel to break a sweat.
Dissatisfied with the lackluster swimwear options at her price point, fashion publicist Gabby Sabharwal took the initiative and created her own line of wallet-friendly, chic suits. With six mix-and-match styles, her collection may be small in size, but scores big on the style scale. Where do you see your line going? What’s next? I love one-pieces. There’s something about them that looks so chic. I’m hoping to do something really creative and different with a one-piece as well as a few more transitional cover-ups. I’m also going to experiment with creating my own prints and layering fabrics.
