5 Swimsuit Trends to Know About in 2020

Each and every summer the newest and hottest swimsuits hit the beach. This summer you can expect to see the hottest celebrities wearing long and short sleeved bikini and swimsuit tops, while booty shorts and belted swim bottoms will be caught froliking on yachts. If you want a trend-setting bathing suit (or two), here is a list of the hottest swimsuit trends for women to sport in the waves this summer:

1. Long-sleeve bikini tops
One of the hottest trending bathing suits this year is the long sleeve bikini top. Not only does this bathing suit look great, but it can also help protect your body from exposure to the sun and the sun’s damaging UV rays. The long sleeve top fully covers your arms and chest and stops right below your breasts in typical crop top fashion. This style really offers practical sunburn protection while hugging all the right curves and looking great at the beach or pool. Look for this style with buttons or a zipper down the front.

2. Short-sleeve one-piece swimsuits
Another top trending bathing suit for 2020 is the short sleeve one piece bathing suit. J. Crew beachwear has already upped their one-piece trend with this unique look. We’ve already seen short sleeved bathing suits offered in a variety of colors and patterns, such as black and white striped, polka dot, and nautical themes. Most feature short sleeves, but many of these suits have flirty cutouts in the waist or chest areas. This short sleeve bathing suit is great for protecting your arms and shoulders from sun exposure. They also look great to wear in restaurants with just a pair of shorts or a flowy skirt.

3. Booty short bikini bottoms for women
Booty shorts for all women are another great alternative to a traditional bathing suit. Booty shorts allow you to cover up your bottom a little bit more than a traditional bathing suit would. Plus, if you like to play volleyball or frisbee on the shoreline, the booty short offers a sporty new style of swimwear that’s functional and still looks great.

4. Ultra high-rise bikini bottoms
If you have a stunning hourglass figure, the ultra high-rise bikini bottom is where it’s at. This style accentuates the curves from butt to waist while accentuating the length of your legs. These stylish and trending bikini bottoms are ideal for women with natural curves who may be petite or shorter in stature. The high risk bottoms land above the hip to allow women to lengthen and accentuate their bottom half. Plus, these bottoms can be mixed and matched with different styles and colors of bikini tops for some versatility in your swim wardrobe.

5. Belted swimsuits
If you like a little accessorizing in your swim fashion, the new belted one pieces and bikini bottoms hitting the beachway will certainly make you stand out. A belted bathing suit is an ideal way to take a traditional one piece bathing suit to the next level. The belt adds some texture and design to any bathing suit and the cinching actually creates some symmetry for women with curvy tops or bottoms and vice versa. Belts come in knot designs, plastic and faux shell belt buckles, rope designs, and even chain detailing.
