The Swimwear On Every Beach This Summer

No packing list is complete without a standout swimsuit or two. With summer vacations mostly spent lounging in the sun, diving into the sea and beach-club-hopping, swimwear is a worthwhile investment for every getaway capsule. Fortunately, there’s a design to suit every destination and style persona in our new-season edit – from classic triangle bikini tops and high-cut bottoms to polished one-pieces.

Hunza G is a fashion-crowd favorite, famed for its stretchy Original Crinkle fabric that ensures an ultra-flattering fit every time. This season, the cult swimwear brand has collaborated with British heritage house Burberry on a collection of swimsuits, bikinis and cover-ups that are equal parts sculpting and stylish. Georgiana Huddart, who relaunched Hunza G in 2015, cites the ‘Tyler’ bikini as one of the collaboration’s highlights. “We knew it was going to be such a winner because everybody’s going to feel great and supported in that piece, but also it’s got this fashion edge to it,” she tells PORTER. Wear yours on the Côte d’Azur’s most glamorous beachfronts with a matching scrunchie (one comes with every item) and Burberry’s summer-ready accessories – think sun hats, raffia totes and flip flops all arriving in the iconic check.

For those in search of a more minimalist take on swimwear, you can’t go wrong with Eres or Matteau. The former crafts streamlined silhouettes from its signature Peau Douce fabric, offering ample support and durability. The brand’s black cut-out swimsuit can be worn as a top too – simply style it with a breezy muslin maxi skirt to go from beach to bar in an instant. Alternatively, for a one-piece that feels understated yet fashion-forward, opt for Matteau’s ‘Petite Square’ design in a chocolate-brown hue. The thin straps and square-cut neckline are universally elegant, while the polka-dot print addsjust the right amount of impact to ensure you look perfectly put-together poolside.
