We’re uncovering some hot picks for looking great and staying cool, no matter what you’re up to this summer. Keep scrolling for this year’s top bikini trends.

 1. A Twist on the Classic Triangle Bikini Top

Best for: Small-Medium Chest

Activity Level: Variable

The classic triangle is here to stay! However, there are many interesting new ways to tie the top to make sure you’re serving your best fashion and with the right amount of support for the activity of the day. Are you tired of a sore neck? Try tying it in an over-the-shoulder or cross-back style. Want to emphasize your cleavage? Go for a bandeau tie! The choices are endless!

 2. Flirty Bandeau Tops

Flirty and flowy bandeau tops work for any body type and are super flattering. They come in various coverage, styles, and prints; you’ll definitely find one that you love and that will flatter your body. Many also have removable straps if you’re not confident going totally strapless.

 3. Sporty Shapes and Colors

Following recent fashion trends, athleticwear has transcended into swimwear fashion as well. We love the sporty silhouettes and bright colors! So whether you want to sunbathe and catch some rays or give your all in a round of beach volleyball, you’ll look great in one of these sporty suits!

 4. Keyholes and Cutouts

Best for: Hourglass Shapes

Activity Level: Medium

Keyholes and cutouts take away fabric and add extra oomph to the classic one-piece suits we’ve been waiting for. While great on hourglass body types, most ladies will be able to find a style with cutouts that flatter them best.

 5. Striking Halter Tops

Best for: Large Chest

Activity Level: Medium-High

We love a halter bikini top with a striking print! Offering a little more support than a classic triangle, the halter top bikini is an excellent choice for our buxom babes or for anyone looking to get a little more active and who needs some more support from their swimwear. Endless opportunities are out there for expressing yourself through prints: bold stripes, animal print, botanicals, geometric design – one of each?

 6. Asymmetrical Sophistication
