Knitted swimwear

Knitted swimwear has not lost its relevance for many years. At one time, the legendary snow-white crocheted bathing suit even graced the cover of Cosmopolitan magazine.

Many fashion houses turn to the topic of needlework over and over again. For example, knitted swimwear can be seen in the Luli Fama or Tommy Hilfiger collections. A spectacular model can be purchased almost every year, thus remaining in trend. It's even better to knit it yourself if you own knitting needles or crocheting.

The main feature of the knitted swimsuit model is that it looks romantic and creative. Depending on the threads used, this swimsuit may take a long time to dry. If the thread is completely natural, then there is a risk that during drying the model will lose its shape or shrink. This should be closely monitored.

Modern technologies have made it possible to develop special types of yarns that are resistant to deformation and to the effects of salt water and the sun.

Knitted swimwear can be crocheted or crocheted. They can be either fully laced or partially laced. For example, it can only be a knitted top. Or openwork decor located in separate places: on straps, around the perimeter of a bra or panties.

The following fashionable versions are possible:

1. Solid - mayo, monokini, planage.
2. Separate - bandeau, bikini, tankini.

Maillot is a classic one-piece swimsuit. Monokini looks like a separate model, the parts of which are connected by a decorative element - a narrow or wide strip. It looks sexy, suitable for brave girls with a good figure. The plankage features a plunging neckline. In some cases, the neckline reaches the waist.

Women's bandeau swimwear does not have straps. The bra looks like a strip of fabric across the chest. Women love this model because after tanning there are no marks from the straps on the shoulders.

The bikini is a classic version, consisting of panties and a triangle-shaped bra with ties. This is the most common option. Tankini has a cropped top instead of a bra or a longer tank top.

The halter version can be either one-piece or separate, its straps are tied around the neck. Solid and separate models can be completed with a knitted skirt.

Colors are available in solid and mixed colors, as well as basic, muted or bright. Also, one of the fashion trends is the combination of top and bottom, made in different colors. This is especially convenient if you want to visually correct the shape - then a darker shade is used for the part that needs to be reduced.

The most successful options for openwork knitting are bright colors and dazzling white. The fact is that white looks very impressive on a tanned body. And bright shades most favorably serve the pattern of weaves on a swimsuit.

Basic colors such as beige or gray look interesting, as they resemble fishing nets. Such a swimsuit looks on a woman's body as if you are a mermaid who has come ashore from the depths of the sea.

The original solution is the swimwear, knitted of multi-colored threads. These can be playful striped options, melange or colored designs.

When choosing a knitted swimsuit, you should consider your body type, fashion trends, as well as your breast size. If it is medium and slightly larger, then it is advisable that underwires are sewn into the bra for additional support. Of course, the chosen color should also suit you perfectly.

According to the type of figure, the following recommendations can be given:

• If you are the owner of curvaceous forms and you have a small tummy, then pay attention to the style of the tankini. Thanks to the T-shirt, it will help to disguise those places that you would not like to show.
• Monokini is not suitable for those who have a rectangular body type and the waist is not expressed. And for the "hourglass" or "pear" figure, this style will be an excellent choice, as it will emphasize the main advantage - your waist.
• Broad-shouldered girls and women should avoid the bandeau model, which will only add bulkiness to the top. Also, a bandeau swimsuit visually reduces the chest.
• Contrary to popular belief, the planage looks great if you have small or medium breasts. On more mouth-watering forms, this trendy cut can look too provocative.

How much does a knitted swimsuit cost? Here the options can be very different: in online stores you can find average prices, in fashion boutiques - expensive models. But for needlewomen, a swimsuit can only cost you the cost of yarn and the time spent with pleasure on creating a masterpiece with your own hands. In this situation, a number of advantages can be noted: such a thing will perfectly fit the figure, and it will also be exclusive, since it is created in a single copy.

A beautiful knitted swimsuit itself, most often, does not require any addition. It is enough to acquire a standard set of summer accessories:

• sunglasses;
• Beach bag;
• beautiful shoes;
• hat;
• tunic or pareo;

If your swimsuit is a tankini model, that is, its top looks like a T-shirt, then you can walk in it to the beach in the city, complementing it with a fashionable skirt. A long or short skirt complete with such an original top is a worthy look for warm, sunny days.

Additional decorations made of natural materials will be an excellent solution. This will accentuate the flavor of an unusual bathing suit, enhancing the effect. For example, shells, pearls, wooden bracelets or earrings - these themed accessories look great in combination with openwork knitting.
