5 Bikini Trends the World's Most Influential Women Are Adding to Their Carts
You know we like some swimwear trend coverage over here onBest Knockoff Luxury Clothing . During peak swimwear months, we’re bringing you near-daily updates, discussing everything from the micro-trend the most fashionable girls are endorsing to the under-$150 bikinis celebrities are wearing. But with travel at a standstill in 2020, I wanted to get reinspired by a memorable influencer getaway from summer 2019.
Last year, I was invited to take part in #RevolveSummer at Cuixmala in Mexico. With the promise of beautiful beachscapes to photograph, I sensed a fresh crop of swim field research was imminent. Swim destination? Check. A group of the world’s most influential women on Instagram? Check.
Last time I looked, Revolve offers almost 4000 different styles in the swimwear section of its site, so you better believe I was interested in which trends these women were adding to their carts. To prepare for the 2019 trip, attendees got to browse the e-commerce site and have their shopping-cart picks sent to them in advance (for outfit planning, naturally). Despite such a vast selection to pick from, some clear trends emerged among the group. Scroll down to see which styles gained favor (and a whole lot of likes), and shop the updated 2020 looks for yourself.
1. Apron-Top Bikini
The apron-cut top and dress are '90s-era trends that are back in full force at the moment. We love how the look translates to swimwear.
Shop the matching Scorchin Bottom ($58).
Shop the matching Evros Bottom ($58).
Shop the matching Tiff Bottom ($70).
2. Bikini Styled With Clothing
Crop tops have graduated from trend to staple status. Accordingly, styling a bikini top with clothing makes the perfect tropical outfit.Best Knockoff Luxury Clothing editors are so on board with the concept that we even rounded up the best swimsuits that weirdly look better as summer tops.
Shop the matching Omnia Bottom ($85).
Shop the matching Beach Riot Shorts ($84).
Shop the matching Ellejay Bikini Bottom ($84).
Shop the matching Gabrielle Bottom ($85).
Shop the matching True Colors Bottom ($88).
3. Hardware
Buckles, zippers, and belts, oh my! Whichever way you want to wear hardware, you're guaranteed a look that makes a major impact.
Shop the matching Hadlee Bikini Bottom ($38).
Shop the matching Isla Bikini Bottom ($38).
Shop the matching Tropical Affair Bikini Bottom ($150).
4. Animal Print
Animal print is a perennially chic trend and one of the more timeless looks of the bunch. Opt for classic leopard or take it up a notch with more of-the-moment zebra print.
Shop the matching Stella Bottom ($78).
Shop the matching Mai Tai Bottom ($95).
Shop the matching Anna Bikini Bottom ($95).
5. Underwire Top
We called this trend at the top of swim season in April 2019, and it's only gaining popularity as we head into summer 2020. Equal parts style and support, this bra-inspired bikini top is a smart summer investment.
Shop the matching Shout Bottom ($68).
Shop the matching Bali Bottom ($78).
Shop the matching Sorrento Bikini Bottom ($77).
