This summer seems to be dedicated to the girls. With an apparent retrograde, perhaps it’s best to postpone baecations and opt to spend time with your homegirls this time around. Whether you’re planning a beach day or an impromptu trip to Tulum (or some other tropical destination), you need new bathing suits ASAP because having the right bikini or one-piece can make or break your photo ops.
Recently, a few Black-owned fashion brands like Brandon Blackwood and Theophilio have ventured into offering swimwear, and their pieces are incredibly chic. Black-owned swimwear stands out due to its ability to grab attention, make a statement, and exude glamour. These brands transform basic bikinis into chic pieces that you can wear regularly, not just at the beach. Despite the prints and cutouts, these pieces have a timeless appeal that will elevate your look.
Take a look below at the brands we’re excited to shop from this summer.
A one-piece like this can be worn as a cut-out top with trousers to brunch and on a yacht for dinner.
