Best Swimwear and Bikini Trends for Summer

You may think it’s a little early for swimwear, but with the rise of the winter sun getaway, the four day Easter break coming up and a whole summer of festivals and beach holidays to look forward to, I’ve teamed up with Figleaves.com to give you a little heads up on some of this seasons top swimwear trends and show you my favourite pieces from the new collection.

Through my travels and also on the catwalks at Fashion Week I’ve seen some really exciting poolside styles coming through. From marble prints through to cut out swimwear, here’s my Style Traveller edit of the Best swimwear and bikini trends for summer.

And a huge thank you to the beautiful hotel, The Royal Mansour in Marrakech for providing such a gorgeous back drop for this shoot. This is a sponsored post but I also genuinely LOVE all the pieces that I have picked, I hope you do too, please leave me a comment at the end and let me know.
How MarBellous!

One of the biggest trends this season and not just in swimwear, but in lifestyle and interiors too is ‘marble’. Whether you’re choosing a marble print case for your laptop and i-phone or decking out your house in the beautiful stone to make it flatlay ready for insta, there’s no doubt marble is rocking this season (excuse the pun :)

Playing Around

Ditch the floaty dresses and cut offs, to stay really on trend by the pool, jump into a playsuit. The shortened or ‘shorts’ version of a jumpsuit, this versatile little number will take you from beach side to bar with ease.

The One

For a few seasons now the good old one-piece has been making a come back and this summer is no exception. But far from its original frumpy connotations, these one-pieces have been sexed up. Go retro glam with an asymmetric shoulder and sheer panels like this Icon Capri one shoulder swimsuit by Figleaves.

Or…

‘Cut it out’ and go peep show style with a cute cut-out or ladder style like this Black icon ladder swimsuit by Figleaves pictured below.

Go Graphic and Go Global

Graphic prints are a perennial trend, so go bold and geometric this season. And keep the look eclectic by mixing trends. This boho pom pom sarong is the perfect cover up to add an ethnic touch to your swimwear look.

Sports Luxe and Colour Pop

Nothing looks better on the beach than a bright bold colour. So be brave and opt for an azure blue to match the sea. Another big trend for this season is sports luxe, think sporty cuts in techno fabrics, I love this super sexy logo’d Calvin Klein number.

That’s all from The Royal Mansour and Figleaves for now. Next stop back to the UK for some Lake District adventures.
