Premium swimsuits trends today? Swimwear season is upon us. The suits du jour? Glamorous one-pieces and modest bikinis, both cut to cover up and enhance curves. In the mix are island-inspired options — an asymmetrical two-piece from the New York label Giejo (top, $98; bottom, $88) and a cheap and cheerful Indochine-esque palm print by Joe Fresh ($29), for example — that hit the high and low sides of swim’s price spectrum. Other standout summertime swim trends include plaids (gingham from the Australian swim house Seafolly and madras from Thom Dolan); black-and-whites (stripes from Norma Kamali and botanicals from Tommy Bahama); and florals (primaries from Rebecca Taylor and pastels from American Eagle). T even found the sunglasses that go best with each look. Here comes the sun!
Consisting solely of striped and block colour suits and bikinis, this brand delivers exactly what it says on the proverbial tin. Cuts vary from strappy to sporty, meaning that even the most perturbed bather will find something they feel comfortable in. New York utilitarianism meets Malibu languor in this delectable collection by design duo Megan Balch and Jaime Barker. Whether you’re more of a front crawl sprinter or pool side sipper is irrelevant here – the robust structuring and sorbet shades of these designs will bring a certain elegance to any holiday wardrobe.

From hip hop to spinning and everything in between, these days you can pretty much find a different kind of workout for each day of the week. And while the latest crop of cardio classes and cross-training routines make hitting the gym more fun (finally), they also take a little more planning in the wardrobe department…because you can’t wear that tired old middle-school-tee-and-soccer-short-combo every day. You just can’t. So, because we’re firm believers that when you look good, you feel good (and if there’s anywhere you need to feel good, it’s the gym), we’ve put together five super cute and functional outfits, each geared toward a different activity. Click through to see it all, and get that activewear collection started—you’ll be surprised how motivated you’ll feel to break a sweat.
Dissatisfied with the lackluster swimwear options at her price point, fashion publicist Gabby Sabharwal took the initiative and created her own line of wallet-friendly, chic suits. With six mix-and-match styles, her collection may be small in size, but scores big on the style scale. Where do you see your line going? What’s next? I love one-pieces. There’s something about them that looks so chic. I’m hoping to do something really creative and different with a one-piece as well as a few more transitional cover-ups. I’m also going to experiment with creating my own prints and layering fabrics.
