If you've hated the last two summers of ridiculously tiny string bikinis reigning supreme, you can rest easy. Thanks to Kendall Jenner, who has the power to make or break trends with one Instagram post, high-coverage swimwear is gearing up for a comeback.

On Monday, the model, who was among the first to get on board with micro bikinis, debuted a much more conservative swimsuit than we've grown accustomed to seeing on the beach in 2022. In an Instagram post, she wore a vintage S/S 00 Jean Paul Gaultier tank-style bikini top with matching high-waisted bottoms, both of which were sourced from the vintage store Opulent Addict by Jenner's stylist, Dani Michelle. In other photos from the post, she can be seen wearing the set with its matching mesh slip dress and a cowboy hat—the Kenny from Gladys Tamez Millinery. 

Though we don't expect Jenner to ditch her string bikinis for good, we are expecting slightly covered-up styles to garner some serious attention in the wake of her latest post. To prepare for their upcoming revival, shop the best high-waisted bikinis below.
