This season there are so many hot swimwear trends, from cut-outs to cap sleeves to color blocking and many more. So before you hit the store to buy one, don’t forget to take a look at these latest swimwear trends for 2018!

1. Off-the-Shoulder Swimsuits

It’s time to show off those toned shoulders this season because off-the-shoulder sexy swimwear is in vogue. This trend has taken the fashion world by storm, and we saw all celebs rock this trend even in dresses and tops. And now this trend has hit the swimsuits too!

2. Lace & Tie-Up Swimsuits

Tie-ups? Loads of people prefer this trend. So it’s fun to see the tie-up style making its way over to swimwear. Also, you can adjust the laces depending on how it fits on your body. It’s the best option for all body types.

3. Color Blocking

Color blocking is back! This was all over the fashion week too and we are seeing color blocking with vibrant and bold colors. And I’m loving this style in beachwear luxury pieces. Try neutrals with bright colors, and use color blocking to hide problem areas and show off your assets!

4. Cut-Out Swimsuits

Cutouts aren’t a new trend but it’s still staying strong for this season too! For this summer, it seems like celebs, It-girls and models are fearlessly showing off their toned bodies in cut-out swimsuits. Cleavage and side cut-outs, both are very trendy. So when going for a sexy swimwear, make sure it’s not a plain boring one and spice up your sexy swimsuits with cut outs.

5. High Waist Beachwear

If you’re not quite the beach body type, then high waist swimwear would be a great idea! Because it provides great coverage at the hips and tummy area. Pair high waist sexy bikini bottoms with bandeau, halter neck and bralette bikini tops. Super sexy they are!

6. Bandeau

Amongst all the sexy women’s swimwear, bandeau is one of the hottest trends that we are seeing back this season too! Try ruffled polka print, solid color and color blocking bandeau paired with matching bikinis. It’s perfect to show those toned abs!

7. 90s Retro Swimsuits

Are you inspired by 90s fashion? If so it’s time to grab a one-piece designer swimwear for your retro-inspired look to the beach. We saw 90s retro style sexy swimsuits in many of the top swimwear collections. Try swimsuits with solid colors, floral prints and ones with text or fun graphics!

8. Ruffled Swimwear

Ruffles are going to be one of the hottest trends in summer both in party clothes and casual outfits. And I love this style and I’m glad it’s in! Pretty ruffles in bikinis can take a simple swimsuit and make it flirty and feminine!

9. Sheer Swimwear

If you’re worried about your unevenly tanned skin by those cut-outs and tie-ups, try sheer swimsuits to look hot and sexy! As it’s a great way to look bold and daring.

10. Striped Swimsuits

Striped swimwear is not exactly a new trend. But still, these sexy swimsuits are timeless in fashion. There are so many different types of stripes and colors to try! Avoid horizontal stripes that make you look broader, and go for vertical ones for a slim look.

11. Cap Sleeve Swimsuits

Cap sleeve swimsuits? Yup, it’s a new style in a retro way! I’m personally loving this trend and those who are bored of those sleeveless and off-the-shoulder ones, this one is for you! It can be a one piece or a cap-sleeved top paired with a matching bikini bottom.
