What's a summer wardrobe to you? A few floaty dresses, some sandals and a new beach bag? What about one of the best one-piece swimsuits? They're a wear-anywhere swimwear option, obviously, but they're also versatile enough for occasions far beyond the water, and, actually, their purpose surpasses the remit of one season too.
While the itsy-bitsy-teeny-weeny bikini (yellow polka dots optional) provides more surface area for tanning, a flattering one-piece will stand the test of time. Planning on going from beach to bar but don't want to bring a spare outfit? Wear your swimsuit as a bodysuit and you're good to go.
Granted, the warmer weather in the UK is still a way off, but as we begin to book those summer travels, so too are we starting to browse our favourite swimwear brands, and from the belted drops at Eres to the strapless and animal print silhouettes all over the high-street, it appears the hottest one-piece swimsuits of 2023 are already beginning to sell out. As such, we're declaring it officially time to invest in a few new swimsuits (before everyone else beats you to it).
While last season saw designers including Zimmermann and Missoni take on crochet fabrics in the swimwear realm, SS24 is largely about block colours and one-shouldered silhouettes. Look to Versace, Melissa Odabash, Lisa Marie Fernandez and Matteau for confirmation.
When it comes to other one-piece trends, crinkle swimsuits (case in point: Hunza G's ribbed one piece swimsuits) continue to prove ever-popular, and feminine details like strappy necklines are standing out. H&M echoes the free spirit behind their summer dresses with this halterneck swimsuit, while this cut-out swimsuit from Topshop is consistently selling out too.
Whether you're planning on spending the majority of the season in your own garden or you've got the holiday of a lifetime booked, now is the perfect time to experiment. Don't have the luxury of any private outdoor space? Not got a vacation booked just yet? Then why not road-test (park-test?) a new one piece swimsuit style slightly more modestly by wearing it with a pair of your favourite denim shorts? After all, the true test of a great cozzie has always been how many times you can re-wear it.
Don't forget to also shop beach towels, sunglasses and summer hats. We've also got modest swimwear, sports swimsuits and linen dresses ahead of your upcoming getaway. For more from GLAMOUR UK's Senior Commerce Writer Georgia Trodd, follow her on Instagram @georgiatrodd.
