Miraclesuit So Faux Swimsuit

Colorblocked Tankini Style One-Piece

It’s called the So Faux, but there's nothing fake about this one-piece from Miraclesuit. The So Faux gets its name because its colorblocked design makes it appear like a tankini and briefs. However this is actually an optical illusion; it's just a simple one-piece. The tankini styling is a bit of a gimmick that I don't think adds much to the design. But it's a conversation starter,…

Ruffled Ruched Black One-Piece

Miraclesuit shows some uncharacteristic fashion forward flair with this Camilla Bandeau swimsuit. I wouldn't say Miraclesuit typically ignores fashion, but it's always seemed to care more about flattering our figures. That's an admirable goal, but here the label does it with style. The Camilla's made from the same innovative Miratex material we see on the rest of the range. It…

The ruffles and rosettes along the bustline and shirring across the body may not impress minimalist…

Girly Pink Ruffled One-Piece Swimsuit

Swim dresses tend to be conservative affairs with long line skirts designed to hide a couple of extra kilos. But Juicy Couture bucks the trend with the Lacy Layers, a swim dress that knows how to sizzle. If I didn't know better I'd swear this was a party dress. It certainly wouldn't look out of place at a nightclub, with its ultra short ruffled skirt and sexy shirred body. It appears fun a…

Blue Tankinis & Skirt Swimwear Set

It Figures offers an alternative to skimpy swimwear with its bathers made for more self conscious beachgoers. This Hip Hider does more than hide hips. The tankini tops camouflage untoned tummies, while the swimsuit skirt conceals dimply thighs. It all sounds great in theory, but I'm not sure about the execution. This swimsuit hides flaws really well, but I don't think it makes the…
