This Bikini Trend Is Suddenly Dying
We've already highlighted the coolest new swim trends for this year and the swimsuits that are out, and ahead I'm breaking down the styles A-listers are getting behind—aka the most popular celebrity bikini trends this year—and the one trend that celebs are notably skipping.
Looking to celeb beach outfits, barely-there bikinis are being embraced in a huge way. String bikinis and triangle tops are being endorsed by celebs like Bella Hadid and the always photogenic J. Lo. On the other end of the spectrum, we're seeing celebs like Kylie Jenner and Emily Ratajkowski wearing inventive one-pieces that range from belted swimsuits to styles with cutouts.
The one style we're not seeing celebrities wear right now? High-waisted bikinis. The silhouette has been hugely popular in the last few years, but now celebrities seem to be shying away from the style. Go on to see the swimsuits the celebrity bikini and one-piece trends they're wearing instead that are already huge and shop pieces to get their looks.
Low-Cut Bikinis
Instead of high-waisted bikinis, celebrities are gravitating toward low-cut styles. We're seeing a huge uptick in string bikinis and silhouettes that have an early '00s feel.
Kendall Jenner is a huge fan of the throwback string bikini.
Take a styling note from Ashley Graham and wear a printed style.
When it comes to black bikinis, Kylie Jenner proves that they're anything but boring.
Yep, even more proof that a black bikini is a wardrobe staple.
Go for a pretty green color like Georgia Fowler.
One-Pieces
If you opt for one-pieces over bikinis, there are plenty of celebs who are also favoring the swimsuit style. What we're seeing this year is a range of styles with details that update the standard one-piece, whether it's a plunging silhouette, "floss" straps, or a seersucker finish.
Plunging one-pieces? A signature silhouette of J Lo's.
Minimal one-pieces with super-thin straps are a personal favorite silhouette.
Details like a plunging V-neck or lace-up finish makes a one-piece instantly feel cool.
Add a fun pop of color like Kourtney Kardashian.
Opt for a classic shape like Chrissy Teigen.
