Fun in the sun.

Bathing suit trends have changed a lot in the past few years. Before, they were just cute pieces of clothing we put on quickly to jump into the pool or go to the beach. Now, they have become statement pieces and have nothing simple about them. Even the most straightforward pieces have twists and details that make them unique and elegant. From regular triangle, halter tops and side tie bottoms to bandeaus, strapless and high waists, everything became a little sexier and riskier. Retro and one piece have become much more popular and the beach has become a runway. Bellow is a list of the most fashionable swimsuit trends right now.

1.  Anthropologie "Color-Pop Maillot one piece swimsuit":  Retro! Very fashionable and colorful which gives a little playful look to it.
