10 Hot Swimwear Trends for Summer
If your swimwear attire is in need of a revolution, there’s no better time to shake things up. This year’s crop of sexy, stylish bikinis and monokinis features something for everyone. Out of the changing room, on to the sands and pool sides, and in to the waves and waters, here are 10 swimwear trends to snag before things start to heat up:
1) Cutouts
Cutouts are the easiest way to make your swimwear scream ‘2010’ with no extra effort on your part. Sexy slits around the torso, hips and neckline offer a tantalizing glimpse, while giving off a modern, edgy feel that’s best pulled off with a lot of confidence and attitude.

2) Grecian-inspired
These sophisticated swimsuits may or may not ever touch the water at all, but they’re great for lounging around and sipping mojitos in style. The goddess theme continues from off the runways and into your pool parties with one shoulder, braided, twisted and loosely draped pieces that are all about luxury and femininity.

4) Bold Prints
Not for wall flowers, or maybe for those wall flowers who are tired of being called such, boldly printed swimwear is a fun and forward style that is as versatile as the wearer. Swirls of lush color, exotic motifs, tribal patterns, floral themes and every cheeky message you want to send can come across in this trend. It’s nice to give the eye something to appreciate, besides bare skin, that is. If you’re a fan of art-inspired and graphic prints, show them off in your swimwear as well.
