Premium swimsuits trends today? Swimwear season is upon us. The suits du jour? Glamorous one-pieces and modest bikinis, both cut to cover up and enhance curves. In the mix are island-inspired options — an asymmetrical two-piece from the New York label Giejo (top, $98; bottom, $88) and a cheap and cheerful Indochine-esque palm print by Joe Fresh ($29), for example — that hit the high and low sides of swim’s price spectrum. Other standout summertime swim trends include plaids (gingham from the Australian swim house Seafolly and madras from Thom Dolan); black-and-whites (stripes from Norma Kamali and botanicals from Tommy Bahama); and florals (primaries from Rebecca Taylor and pastels from American Eagle). T even found the sunglasses that go best with each look. Here comes the sun!
Bright, casual and sexy, Free People is clothing’s answer to Anthropologie (its sister company). Surfer girls and sun worshippers alike will find their home here, where each piece displays a unique concept and colour palette. Although born out of West Philadelphia, the relaxed Cali vibe of this brand is undeniable. For the ultimate bombshell look, there’s nowhere better than Monday Swimwear. Conceptualised around the notion that if you’re in a bikini on a Monday, life must be good, it’s a brand that’s focused on making the wearer feel sexy and feminine.

For a hip hop class, go for slouchy-skinny sweatpants over shorts—trust us, you’ll feel a lot less self-conscious breaking it down if you dress the part. Amp it up with a striped snapback, patterned high-tops, and an oversized tote to make getting to and from class simple and chic. And don’t forget your attitude. Easy layers will have you zen-ready in no time. A flexible bra, short shorts, and a form-fitting tank are staples. When you add accessories like a mat, skid-eliminating towel topper, low-cut socks, and an app of positions, you’ll be prepared for just about any class on the roster.
What is your personal favorite giejo style? It depends on what mood I’m in – if I want to really stand out, I would wear the butterfly bandeau with the high-waist bottom. If I’m feeling more sweet, I would wear the mid boy’s brief and the floral bra top. That is what I love about this collection: There’s such a variety of looks one can achieve from just a couple of pieces that no matter who you are that day, you can dress with confidence! Along with your swimsuit, what are your beach bag essentials? Clarins skin care, my Elizabeth & James sunglasses, iPod and magazines. I usually sleep on the beach and wake up for an occasional dip in the ocean, so not too much!
