Sun, sand, and a tan. That’s the ideal summertime itinerary, and there’s *no other* garment that can take you there all the way than a one piece bathing suit.
One piece swimsuits lend themselves to multiple wears, with huge thanks to their versatility – one moment, you’re flaunting a floral one piece, catching some well-earned seaside rays, and another, you’re wearing one under a long skirt to attend the iconic post-beach dinner.
Just like any summer uniform, one piece bathing suits come in a wide variety of styles from ultra-casual to ultra-chic so you always feel fitted. We’ve rounded up our favorites below – scroll and shop for every type of one piece you could ever want – always comfy and cute.
