— 26 June 2012
Discover this summer’s hottest swimwear trends and how to wear them. Will you opt for vintage elegance, sports-luxe, wild prints or seventies glamour? Get a little help with your jet-setting essentials from our swimwear buyer, Jordana.

Bring some vintage glamour to your holiday get-up as the fabulous fifties inspired Pistol Panties, Vilebrequin and Seafolly this season, to name a few. Look for waist-cinching onepieces, low-cut backs and gingham print to channel the enchanting elegance of a bygone era; add Prada’s retro sunglasses for an Americana twist.

Prepare for a summer of sport by introducing a touch of athletic-luxe into your swimwear portfolio. Get to grips with the surf and the sand in Vilebrequin’s streamlined bikini and Heidi Klein’s hooded jersey cover up. Finish the laid-back look with Tom Ford’s slimline sunglasses and Marc by Marc Jacobs’ wedge flip flops.

Indulge your inner seventies siren with high-octane onepieces, embellished cover-ups and, of course, a big floppy hat. Melissa Odabash, Diane von Furstenberg and Pistol Panties are your go-to labels. A deep golden tan is essential: get a little help from Lancaster’s tan maximiser.

Listen to your animal instincts as wild prints are making waves in swimwear this summer. Opt for leopard print from Heidi Klein, snakeskin from Melissa Odabash or tribal tiger from Seafolly. Don’t be afraid to print-clash: cover up in a sheer-silk printed maxi dress.
