To no surprise, we prefer to usher in a new season by scoping out the best shopping. As we move into April, we normally set aside a portion of our budget for a cute bikini as we plan for warmer weather ahead. And while this year swim season may look different, we're still researching and bookmarking as creatures of habit.
True to form, the research started months earlier at fashion week, on Instagram, and via collection drops from our favorite brands. Our desired bikini is one that is comfortable, stylish, and most importantly, long-lasting.
Which brings us to the below bikinis. Fruits of our months-long analysis, the below sets are our seasonal favorites from go-to brands like Solid
Striped, Onia, Anemone, Hunza G, Faithfull the Brand, and more.
Whether you're looking for something high-waisted, strappy, cheeky, full-coverage, triangle, scoop-neck, balconette, or bandeau, there's a new bikini for everyone. Below, shop the cute bikinis that are currently our favorites—all organized by style.
