Whether you're spending the summer hitting the beach, lounging by the pool, or just hanging out in your own backyard, nothing makes a statement quite like a designer swimsuit. In an arena where style meets functionality, high-quality swimwear can truly elevate your entire summer aesthetic. From sleek silhouettes to bold prints, designer swimsuit brands really seem to reach every end of the earth with a wide variety of options to choose from. While each of these brands is unique, I can find something most of my friends and I would love to wear from all of them.

Each season, you really only need to invest in one or two suits. I wear my favorite styles again and again with no limits to what I won't try. From renowned fashion houses to emerging labels, these 14 designer swimwear brands offer something for every style enthusiast, starting with you.

1. Burberry

2. Hunza G
