The weather is starting to warm up, which can only mean one thing… It’s prime time to start shopping for the best swimsuits of the season. There is definitely a lot of newness to get excited about from suits that incorporate sultry cutout details to luxe lurex infused bikinis. I wanted to share all of the 2022 swimwear trends worth investing in for the spring and summer season. Note that swim is known for selling out early, so it is best to get a head start and secure the most covetable styles. I also recommend scoping out my Shopbop swimwear picks (HERE) since you can score up to 25% off with their Spring Style Event.

Cutout Detailing

As you know, cutout detailing has already made its mark in everyday fashion and continues to make an even bigger splash in swimwear. Torso splices and keyhole slashes will be omnipresent on both one-pieces and two-pieces galore. The tasteful cutouts work to accentuate the body, while also elevating your most basic swimwear styles.

Lurex

2022 swimwear is also getting a bit flashier thanks to the big push for lurex fabrications. These glitter-infused suits make for an ultra luxe take, perfect for when you want to steal the spotlight. Best of all, the sparkly lurex will complement your summer tan and provide that everlasting glow.

Classic Triangle

When in doubt, you can always invest in the basics too. The classic triangle bikini has triumphantly made a huge comeback this season. If you are looking for a swimwear option that is minimal, yet flattering, this might be the way to go. There is something so iconic about an itty bitty triangle two-piece set too.

Belted

For a retro take on contemporary swimwear, opt for a belted style. This manages to look good on both high-waisted two-pieces, as well as one-pieces. The addition of the belt not only manages to highlight the smallest part of your waist, but also looks and feels expensive. Add an oversized hat and some sunglasses into the mix for a complete look.

Crochet

To channel a more boho-inspired look this summer, tap into the crochet swimwear trend. Whether it is a neutral or a fun splash of color, crochet suits are incredibly charming and fun. They come off youthful and energetic, which is ideal for the care-free season ahead.

Halter Tops

This has been a popular choice for dressing up for a night out and has since then been translated into swimwear. Halter tops are perfect for channeling a minimal aesthetic. Plus, they tend to feel more secure than some other swim styles out there.
