New items
It is impossible to imagine a trendy summer wardrobe of a modern girl without a stylish outfit for the beach. In the spring-summer 2017 designer collections, the variety of women's models, colors, and finishes of swimwear is amazing. Fashion lines for such outfits do not change as often as trends for other clothes, but still new items appear every season.
The designers have taken care of a rich assortment of swimwear to cater to the tastes and needs of every girl. More and more brands are thinking that beach outfits should be not only beautiful, but also practical. Therefore, the most fashionable styles this summer are comfortable, feminine, bright swimwear.
Models
Sports swimwear, bikinis, trikini, bandeau, one-piece or separate options - every fashionista will find an outfit to her taste. Increasingly, designers are adding modeling swimwear to their collections that are suitable for girls with any figure. Such models will help hide small flaws, increase height, and visually lengthen the legs. For those who dream of a spectacular neckline, there are swimsuits with built-in cups and a push-up effect.
Fashion houses pay special attention to swimsuits for a large bust. In these models, the bodice is tailored to accentuate and support the chest while swimming, exercising or dancing by the pool.
The fashion for swimwear has touched not only models for adult girls, but also children's options. Beach outfits for girls take into account the activity of the child. The styles of adult swimwear are slightly transformed in children's beachwear fashion. H
For example, girls' topical bikinis look cute, but they are pretty tight. They are often decorated with ruffles, skirts or capes.
And piece-piece swimsuits are characterized by a special brightness of colors and charm of prints. In addition, beach fashion for children is characterized by democracy and the lack of an abundance of decor. In such swimsuits, belts, rhinestones or original finishes are rarely found, which, with all their external beauty, can cause discomfort.
Styles
Diversity is becoming the main slogan for designers this season. Swimwear of various shapes and textures is in trend, suitable both for relaxing on the beach and for a pool party. And yet, most of the collections have several models that are especially relevant for the coming summer:
Bando
This model has remained popular for several years and does not lose its relevance in 2017. The Victoria's Secret collection puts a special emphasis on this style, believing that the bandeau is perfect for almost any girl.
The name of the swimsuit is translated from French as "ribbon". It is the peculiarity of the upper part, which wraps around the chest like a ribbon, and distinguishes the bando from other models. In this case, the bottom of the swimsuit can be anything, no emphasis is placed on it. The classic bandeau swimwear lacks straps, and the bodice consists of a single strip of fabric, which most often crosses in the shape of a figure of eight on the chest. But the new collections feature bandeaus, the bodice of which is decorated with ruffles, lengthened almost to the waist or equipped with a drawstring. It is usually sutured between the cups and slung over the neck.
The main advantage of such a swimsuit is the possibility of an even tan without traces of straps or buckles on the shoulders. In addition, the variety of gangs will allow the owner of any figure to look fashionable and charming.
Vintage
Fashion tends to come back. This applies to any wardrobe item, and beach outfits are no exception. Many designers have added adorable retro swimwear to their collections this year. Vintage models are very different from the usual bikinis. Therefore, for those who want to be in the spotlight, this swimsuit will be the perfect option for relaxation.
Retro style swimwear is reminiscent of the styles that became popular in the fifties and sixties. They are characterized by flirtatiousness and femininity, so inherent in the pin-up style fashionable in those decades. Despite this, vintage models are more closed. Most often, the bottom of such swimsuits is lengthened and covers the waist line. The bodice can be quite restrained and resemble a top, or it can flirtatiously emphasize the neckline.
Sweetheart necklines and tight cups with a push-up effect are most often seen in one-piece swimsuits, styled after models from the 50s. These are preferred by the retro-style icon - Dita von Teese. One-piece vintage swimsuits are distinguished by a corset silhouette, no straps and a deep neckline. They are versatile: they will look equally impressive on the beach and at the pool party. Such a swimsuit is suitable for girls with any type of figure: it successfully conceals imperfections in the hips and emphasizes the line of the waist and chest.
Halter
If you prefer two-piece swimwear, the popular halter designs are for you. The main feature of this style is the collar, which frames the neck and décolleté, revealing the shoulders. Halter swimsuits were also presented in the collections of 2016, but it was in this season that they reached their peak of popularity.
The bottom and top of halter models are most often monochromatic, not distinguished by a catchy print. This style of swimsuit will be perfect for relaxing on the beach. Knitted patterns look especially stylish. Swimming in them is not very convenient, but they look exquisite and catchy, which makes them often the choice for photo shoots or beach parties.
Halter leotard is suitable for those who want to emphasize the fragility and grace of the shoulder line. In addition, due to the peculiarities of the cut, this style of the swimsuit fits perfectly and stays in place while swimming or diving.
Monokini
One-piece swimsuits do not want to give up their position. Each summer collection must include such models. But styles and details are transformed, obeying the desires of fashionistas to look feminine and seductive.
The monokini one-piece swimsuit meets these requirements. The main feature of this style is the cutouts that expose the body strips. They can be of a wide variety of sizes, from small to barely covering almost the entire body. The back of the monokini is completely open. The only strip of fabric on her is the one that supports the bodice.
It is impossible to get an even tan in a monokini swimsuit, so it is more suitable for walking or parties. It is thanks to the latter that monokini has become a trend. Hollywood divas choose this style for poolside events. Monokini swimwear lovers include Paris Hilton, Nicole Ricci, Miranda Kerr. Such a swimsuit is deservedly considered the most luxurious and seductive.
Tankini
One of the most fashionable, popular and relevant styles of summer 2017 is a tankini swimsuit. It has a number of advantages. The tankini swimsuit is a cross between one-piece and separate models. In this style, they and the top are worn separately, but because of the elongated top that covers the waist, a feeling of unity of the outfit is created.
This feature of the tankini cut will help to hide figure flaws, and the bones sewn into the bodice will raise and emphasize the chest. But this model of a swimsuit not only looks advantageous and original on the beach, but is also very practical. She is chosen for swimming, sports, walking. Tankini does not need to be constantly corrected and taken care of that it stays in place.
A tankini swimsuit will be an ideal option for those who are tired of the monotony of beach outfits, who are ready to stand out, but at the same time think about their convenience.
Mayo
Mayo is a one-piece swimsuit and is perfect for those wishing to adjust their hips. The style of the leotard is distinguished by a V-shaped deep cut, which reveals the chest as much as possible. This cut will allow you to focus on the neckline and visually reduce the volume of the lower body.
Due to the growing popularity of mayo swimwear, designers are complementing their models with various decors. These can be ruffles framing the neckline, transparent or colored inserts on the sides, ribbons or ribbons. Maillot paired with a long skirt can easily be a great outfit for a boat trip or even going out into town.
With long sleeve
Truly unusual swimwear has appeared in this season's collections. Models of beach dresses with long sleeves are completely unaccustomed to ordinary people, but in this regard, they attract even more attention. Designers offer this style in both one-piece and separate versions.
This piece of wardrobe has long been loved by surfers. They served as inspiration for eminent designers. Long-sleeved swimwear guarantees comfort when playing sports, beach games, diving. It will not be possible to tan in them, but this nuance becomes an obvious plus for those whose skin is overly susceptible to the sun.
Long sleeve two-piece swimsuits are replacing the sporty one-piece swimsuits. They are distinguished by originality, comfort and femininity. This outfit is especially suitable for girls who are ready to show off their figure. It will emphasize the line of the shoulders and a flat tummy.
Bikini
The most familiar bikini swimsuit, which has long won the hearts of fashionistas, remains popular this summer. Despite the abundance and variety of styles, it is the bikini that is still chosen by most girls for relaxing on the beach or by the pool. A bikini is an open-top swimsuit made up of two pieces. The peculiarity of this style is a high cut for the legs and a low rise.
Bikinis can be afforded by girls who are confident in their figure. But this option is ideal for sunbathing and getting a beautiful tan.
All models and styles of swimwear this summer will be relevant on the beach, if they are decorated with some unusual element. The most common options are lace and ruffles. They can frame the neckline or become a flirty skirt, be voluminous or restrained. Any of the options will add femininity and romance to the swimsuit. Decorating beach dresses with belts, knitted or transparent inserts, and various ribbons is considered no less fashionable. Such details will add completeness to the image, add chic and attract everyone's attention.
Colors
As is the case with styles, the variety of swimwear colors in the fashion collections is mind-boggling. Many designers have turned to solid color options for a beach outfit. The most popular color for the upcoming season is vibrant turquoise. A swimsuit of this color will set you apart from the crowd, accentuate your tan and add spontaneity to the image.
Dark blue, green and gold will be relevant in the summer of 2017. Models in these shades will look great both on the beach and during evening events. Together with bright, catchy swimwear, beach dresses in pastel shades are gaining popularity: beige, powdery, pale pink. These colors are suitable for those who have not yet had time to tan. They will add a touch of tenderness to the image and add elegance.
The classics of beach parties - black swimwear - are not giving up their positions either. Noble black will emphasize the severity and sophistication of the image, hide small flaws in the figure. Swimwear of this color looks especially good in gold or silver accessories. But it is worth remembering that a black swimsuit is not suitable for those who have not had time to tan. It is best to leave it on for the days when your skin will take on the desired shade.
For those who find monochromatic swimwear boring, designers offer models with bright prints. At the height of fashion, polka dots, which are classic for beach outfits, remain. Retro style swimsuits look perfect with this print. The novelties of the season include geometric patterns, as well as images of animals and plants. Such a print will add a bit of rapacity and severity to the image.
And if you want ease, lightness and mischief, you should pay attention to swimsuits with cartoon drawings. Such models appeared in the Moschino collection. The drawing can be any, but cartoons in the style of pop art or classic comics are considered especially fashionable in the upcoming season.
Selection Tips
When choosing a swimsuit, first of all, you should be guided by your body type, suitable colors and taste preferences. After all, even a very fashionable, but incorrectly selected style may not decorate, but spoil the whole image. In order not to miscalculate with an outfit for the beach, start your choice by studying your own figure, its features will tell you which models you should pay attention to.
For girls with wide hips and narrow shoulders, halter swimsuits or any other model with straps that tie around the neck are perfect. This detail will help to visually reduce the line of the hips and emphasize the shoulders. For a girl with a figure, which is usually called an "apple", tankini will do. They will hide a rounded belly, accentuate the neckline. The high thigh cut allows you to lengthen your legs and visually stretch your figure.
You should not choose this style for those who do not have a clear waistline. For such girls, swimsuits with a decorated, voluminous bottom will become assistants. It can be ruffles or a skirt. This detail will increase the volume of the hips and distract attention from the waist. The owner of the "hourglass" silhouette will suit any style of swimwear. The only guideline for them is the color and purpose of a particular style.
Most often, swimwear is chosen after trying on.But with the proliferation of online stores, the question arose of how to choose the size of a beach outfit. In order to determine what size swimsuit is right for you, you need to measure your parameters. You will need bust, waist, hips.
The size of the top of the swimsuit is most often indicated by letters and numbers. The letter indicates the size of the swimsuit cup, and the number indicates the girth under the bust. In order to determine the bodice cup, subtract from the bust girth the number of the girth under the bust. The difference of 10-12 cm corresponds to the size of AA. The step for enlargement is 2 cm, that is, size A is 12-13 cm, B is 13-15, C is 15-17.
The size of the bottom of the swimsuit will match your clothing size. The most common size markings are in Europe, Russia and the United States. The Russian size 40 will correspond to the 6th American and 34th European. The dimensional step is 2 divisions everywhere. That is, the Russian 44th is the 10th American and the 38th European.
It is very important not to be tempted to choose a smaller model. Such a swimsuit not only does not hide, but also emphasizes all the flaws and imperfections of the figure.
