Tavik El Diablo Monokini
Sexy Ruffled Mint Green One-Piece Swimsuit
Sugar and spice come together deliciously with Tavik's El Diablo Monokini.
Monokinis are always sexy with their deep, plunging necklines and cheeky side cut-outs. But Tavik tempers this scandalous suit with a delicate mint green color and soft, feminine ruffles. It's as if these pretty accents are saying "I'm a good girl, really." The revealing suit tells us otherwise though, a…No Comments
Spanx Woven One-Piece Halter Swimsuit
Blue Slimming Bathers
Women the world over credit Spanx for their sexy slender figures. Its body-shaping underwear revolutionized the lingerie industry, but the company didn't stop there. With swimsuits like this woven one-piece, Spanx is ensuring women can keep their famous figures in or out of the water.
The underwear is never going to get hearts racing, but Spanx's swimwear range just might. This…Ujena High Cut Double Strap Swimsuit
Sexy Yellow One-Piece Swimmers
Who ever said that one-piece swimsuits aren't sexy? Clearly they hadn't encountered this sizzling high cut double strap swimsuit from Ujena!
This swimsuit is cleverly cut to be both conservative, yet provocative. The high cut legs show off more skin than the average pair of bathers, but that's not likely to phase most of it. It's dramatic, but not very scandalous, especially with…Lands’ End Carmela Swimsuit
Long All-Over Control Slender Red One-Piece Bathers
We've all heard about the struggles plus-sized women face when shopping for swimmers, but what about tall girls? Lanky beach lovers also find it difficult to find one-piece bathers to accommodate their leggy frames. Lands' End has come to the rescue with its Carmela swimsuit.
The Carmela is available in several different fits for petite ladies, girls with mastectomies, and curv…Hello Kitty Swim Monokini
Red Cartoon Cat Patterned Cut Out Swimsuit
Who says Hello Kitty is just for kids? Hello Kitty Swim reinvents the popular Japanese cat for grownups with this sexy monokini.
Small images of this cartoon cat cover the traditionally styled red monokini. They give this swimsuit a really playful personality, which is both a blessing and a curse. I think the felines are small enough to avoid looking juvenile, but some beach goers m…Victoria’s Secret Magicsuit Swimsuit
Black Wrap Figure Control One-Piece Bathers
The snow is beginning to melt and we're all starting to anticipate warmer weather. While the idea of sunning yourself is heavenly, it can also be cause for concern if you've packed on a few Christmas kilos. Thankfully Victoria's Secret has come to the rescue with its Magicsuit.
I'm not one to believe in hocus pocus, but the lingerie specialists assure us this swimsuit has the stuff to…Gottex Coral Sea One-Piece Swimsuit
Conservative Patterned High Neck Plus-Sized Bathers
Gottex brings its signature fashion forward style to plus-sized beach lovers with this Coral Sea one-piece.
The high neck style makes this swimsuit look very stylish while still maintaining modesty. It's complemented by a keyhole cut out, which offers a glimpse of cleavage without showing off too much skin.
The abstract Coral Sea print is artsy and a little bit nautical. I like it…Gottex Rhythm One Shoulder One-Piece Swimsuit
Asymmetrical Bandeau Aqua Bathers
Gottex makes a dramatic style statement with this asymmetrical Rhythm swimsuit.
Gottex abandons tradition for a more fashion-forward one-shoulder style. This wide strap is gently pleated, mirroring the soft shirring around the bandeau bust. The rest of the swimsuit seems fairly plain when compared to the top, but there are a few hidden benefits to be found.
You might assume tha…Karla Colletto Angles One Piece Swimsuit
Striking Retro Asymmetrical Mesh Swimmers
Be still my beating heart, for it has fallen hard for this Angles swimsuit from Karla Colletto.
It gets its name from the bold black angular lines which criss-cross over this asymmetrical swimsuit. The black color is picked up again in modern mesh panels, which provide a striking contrast to the vibrant electric blue base. Completing the Angles fashion-forward vision is the one-s…Miraclesuit Sonatina Rock the Croc One-Piece Swimsuit
Figure Flattering Animal Print Swimmers
I'm always reluctant to trust in anything claiming to offer a miracle solution, but when it's endorsed by the one and only Oprah Winfrey I have to sit up and take notice. The Sonatina swimsuit from Miraclesuit received just that honor when Lady O listed it as one of her favorite things.
This Rock the Croc swimsuit has a little bit more flair than the original Sonatina, but it hasn't lost…Tommy Hilfiger Above Board Swimsuit
Red One-Piece Bathing Suit
Channel your inner Baywatch babe in this sexy red Above Board swimsuit from Tommy Hilfiger.
This bathing suit is sizzling in its simplicity. A little gentle shirring below the bust, the discreet golden Tommy Hilfiger crest by the thigh, and the distinctive cross-back straps are the only embellishments. That might make trend conscious beach goers snore, but I see real value in tha…Nautica Wave Texture Ring Swimsuit
Striped Navy One-Piece Swimmers
Nautica makes a swimsuit for real women with this Wave Texture one-piece.
This swimsuit is very figure flattering as it's made from a unique blend of nylon, spandex, and lurex. This material has a snug but stylish fit, which tucks in all those problem lumps and bumps. The navy blue color is also a smart choice; dark shades are much more slimming than their lighter counterparts. And th…Torrid Plus Sized Zebra Halter Swimsuit
One Piece Animal Print Swim Dress
Who says plus-sized girls need to hide away in oversized T-shirts and sarongs. Torrid celebrates curves with this zebra print halter swimsuit.
If I hadn't known better I'd have sworn this swimsuit was a party dress. Its retro halter-neck style and wild zebra print make this suit a lot of fun, and flattering to boot. Halter neck styles lift the bust, making the most of curvy girls' nat…Farrah Fawcett Swimsuit Donated to the Smithsonian
See Star’s Famous Red One-Piece
The red one-piece worn by the late Farrah Fawcett in her 1976 poster, arguably the world's most famous swimsuit, has been donated to the Smithsonian.
Photographer Bruce McBroom captured the iconic image of a smiling, swimsuit-wearing Farrah positing against a striped blanket. A whopping 12 million posters were sold, and it’s likely that even more girls around the world copie…L*Space Miss Mojave Stardust One-Piece Swimsuit
Flamboyant Fringed Aztec Print Bathers
L*Space delivers a swimsuit with flamboyant flair with this Miss Mojave Stardust.
This isn't a swimsuit for shrinking violets, or anyone with a classic sense of style. But it is one of the more interesting swimsuits you'll spot on the beach, with its wild white hippie fringing and Aztec inspired print. Its shape is simple, but when you've got so much going on already you don't need an…Miraclesuit Oceanus Swimsuit
Well Fern-ished Leaf Print Figure Flattering One-Piece Swimmers
As I've gotten old and cynical, I've learned never to trust in miracle cures. However, this stylish Oceanus swimsuit from Miraclesuit makes me want to believe!
This swimsuit says it'll make any girl look ten pounds lighter in just ten seconds. That's a lofty claim, and it's difficult to say whether the swimsuit truly does deliver on the promise. But its gentle shirring does help to f…La Blanca Sweetheart One-Piece Swimsuit
Sophisticated Black Ruched Swimmers
La Blanca reminds us that modesty can be sexy with this classic Sweetheart swimsuit.
The suit gets its romantic name from its sweetheart neckline, a flattering cut which looks like the top half of a heart shape. This neckline gives way to gentle criss-cross ruching across the bust. These gentle pleats continue down the length of the swimsuit, effectively hiding any problem areas w…Nautica Women’s Swim Dress
Black V-Neck One-Piece Swimsuit
If you're self conscious on the beach, it can be difficult to strut your stuff in a skimpy swimsuit. More modest costumes often lack feminine charms, so I was thrilled to find this conservative but cute swim dress from Nautica.
This swim dress' basic black body might have looked boring, but the pop of teal on the trim really livens things up. Look closely and you'll see a tiny bow on the t…Carve Designs Palm Beach Swimsuit
Orange Bandeau One-Piece Swimmers
Carve Designs serves up some tropical style with these popping orange Palm Beach swimmers.
I've never really thought of Carve Designs as trend setters, but the label impresses with the style of this swimsuit. The bandeau style top gives way to a modest, orange one piece. The key hole, with its beachy wooden ring, helps to make the swimmers just a little bit naughty. It's all very mode…Calvin Klein Animal Print Asymmetrical Swimsuit
Modern Women’s Black & White Swimwear
Why settle for just one animal print when you could have so many more? That seems to be the philosophy behind this asymmetrical swimsuit from Calvin Klein.
All those scales and stripes may seem like overkill to conservative beach goers, but I think Calvin Klein has managed this print well. It's certainly different, but by keeping the colors classic and neutral I don't think it's ove…Spiegel One-Piece Halter Neck Swimsuit
Graphic Black & White Patterned Gathered Swimmers
Spiegel brings a modern touch to the retro halter neck swimsuit with this black and white one-piece.
We've seen many halter neck style swimsuits from Spiegel, but none quite like this. The label tends to favor bold, matte colors so this black and white print really is something different.
I really like the abstract print, although I'm not sure I'll feel that way in a season or two. It'…Echo Designs Does Swimsuits
Fashion Brand’s New Bikinis, Tankinis, & One-Piece Swimmers
Echo Design has already dipped its toes into the summer style sector with its beach accessories line, but it's about to jump right in by adding swimwear to its fashion empire.
The new swimwear range features bikinis, tankinis, and one-piece suits so there's something to flatter all figures. Each features the fun colorful patterns Echo is famous for. In fact, they're the very same o…Calvin Klein Shirred Princess Seam Maillot Swimsuit
Sunset Orange Women’s One-Piece Bathers
Calvin Klein's Shirred Princess Seam Maillot swimsuit was only released this summer, but it's quickly become one of the brand's best sellers.
Its name is a bit of a mouthful, but let me break it down for you. Shirring refers to the flattering ruching around the torso, which enhances the bust and hides any flaws. The princess seam part refers to the deep stitching which gives this swim…Sarda’s New Cruise Collection
Reversible Microfiber Swimwear Inspired by International Cities
Spanish swimwear label Sarda has looked to some of the best beach spots in the world for its new Cruise collection. The range features three lines: the Hamptons, Barth, and Sydney. The Hamptons range is made from ultra-light microfiber material which is fully reversible for two distinct looks. One side is plain, while the other features a whimsical fingerprint design. I can't ima…
Spiegel Shape FX Keyhole Swimsuit
White Halter Neck Control One-Piece Swimmers
Spiegel brings fashion forward looks to women of all sizes with this Keyhole swimsuit from the Shape FX collection.
This range is all about flattering women, no matter what their shape. It's an admirable goal, but not one that it's altogether successful at achieving. Just because you offer a pair of swimmers in sizes four to 18 doesn't mean that women at both ends of the spectrum will…Speedo Women’s Lifeguard Swimsuit
Red Xtra Life Lycra Flyback One-Piece Swimsuit
We're not all blessed with the physique of Pamela Anderson and Carmen Electra, but we can look the part with this fun Lifeguard Swimsuit from Speedo.
This style is available in a range of colors, including navy, sapphire blue, and black. If you really want to channel that retro Baywatch vibe though, it's got to be this bright red. Just make sure you run in slow motion as you're making yo…Calvin Klein Asymmetrical Twist One-Piece Swimsuit
Unique Off Shoulder Black Swimmers
Calvin Klein shows us that you don't need to show a lot of skin to turn heads on the beach with this Asymmetrical Twist Swimsuit.
This swimsuit takes the retro off-the-shoulder look we've seen in so many fashions and converts it for the beach. I'd never imagined a one-shoulder swimsuit before, but I must say that I love the look. It's dramatic without being outrageous, and sexy while s…Gottex Swimsuits at New York Fashion Week

Spiegel Shape FX Swimsuit Dress
Purple Shirred One-Piece Retro Slimming Control Bathers
Even if you're not in perfect summer shape, Spiegel promises to make you look good on the beach in this cute shirred swimsuit dress.
This retro inspired number is tightly shirred from underneath the bust to hide a multitude of sins. The soft cups gently support the bust, while the full-covered rear hides any embarrassing lumps and bumps.
What a shame though that more attention wasnâ…Speedo Shining Star One-Piece Swimsuit
Durable Xtra Life Lycra Patterned Flyback Style Swimmers
Speedo has always been the go to brand for serious swimmers. With the Shining Star though, the label delivers a swimsuit for girls who just want to have fun.
The Shining Star gets its name from its dynamic star pattern. I like the various greens used on this suit, but it's just one of six possible color combinations. This print livens up what is essentially a fairly basic styled swimsui…Spiegel One-Piece Swimsuit
Retro Red Shirred Halter Neck Bathers
Spiegel channels the style of vintage pin-up girls with this retro red swimsuit.
You don't need to be a supermodel to impress in this one-piece swimsuit. It's made with real women, and their curves, in mind! Gentle shirring across the midsection flatters your tummy, while the plunging halter neck design draws the eye up to your best assets. The shelf style bra makes the most of your c…Eco-Friendly Kelly B. Tizzi Cut-Out Swimsuit
Bright Yellow, Fair Trade One-Piece with Bandeau Top
Eco-friendly fashions usually call to mind itchy fabrics that come in some variation of the color biege. But this hello-sunshine-yellow Kelly B. Tizzi Cut-Out Swimsuit is anything but.
The fabric is made from bamboo and an organic cotton/spandex blend so the swimsuit is just as fitting as any other would be.
The neck-strap is removable as well if you would prefer a bandeau look. Th…Delias One-Piece Discount Swimsuit
Cheap 1920s Vintage Swimwear in Classic Black or Pink
This deco, 1920s-inspired swimsuit is now on sale online at Delias. It is available in black, hot pink, black crosshatch and pink crosshatch patterns. Though this bathing beauty is most reminiscent of Marilyn Monroe in solid black. Also, the crosshatch patterns seem to age this swimsuit a bit more than a solid color. No one wants to have a swimsuit that looks like they borrowed it fr…Skinny Dip Cut Out One Piece
Naughty Black Halter Neck Swimsuit
A sexy one piece? It's clearly possible. This Skinny Dip Cut Out One Piece suit is almost as revealing as most bikinis and a lot more sultry.
The suit almost has a strapless silhouette, with only a string tie interrupting the line. The way the halter tie criss-crosses in front and loops through the suit gives a keyhole affect, mirrored by the large front cutout that extends down past th…Melissa Odabash Jessica Bandeau Swimsuit
Strapless Gold Studded Cut-Out One Piece
The beach is generally a pretty, preppy stomping ground and there's not a lot of swimwear out there for more rock and roll styles. But this glam, gold-studded strapless suit from Melissa Odabash is chic and stylish and a little bit edgy. Great for girls who aren't into stripes and flowers, but are sick of basic black.
This may be a one piece, but there's not a lot of room to hide flab, es…
