Over the past year, sporty clothes have become a mainstay in many of our closets as outfits have been veering on the side of more relaxed. At least, that’s very true of my personal wardrobe. We even saw evidence of this on the S/S 21 and F/W 21 runways, where designers revealed sportswear-inspired collections and elevated takes on athleisure—meaning that these sporty pieces are definitely here to stick around for a while.
One place I didn’t predict to see the trend? Swimwear. However, as many cool designers including The Attico, Magda Butrym, and Sporty & Rich are proving, sporty swimsuits are one of the key trends to know about this season. With details like halter necklines, neoprene fabrics, and functional performance cuts, there are so many takes on the trend I just need to share. Ahead, the 6 best sporty swimsuit styles to add to your wardrobe this summer.
