Types of Swimwear
Bikinis, one pieces, triangle shapes, tie-up details, where to start?! A better question; which style will you feel your best in? It’s time to discover swimwear that you genuinely love, feel comfortable in and see yourself wearing all-year-round. At Princess Polly, we want everyone to find a style to obsess over and this blog is your ultimate guide to finding it! First thing on your to-do list is to pick which swimsuit styles you like the most. Let’s do a breakdown of each style to get you started.
Bikini Tops
The bikini top, by far one of the most popular swimwear designs, is a classic that comes in endless versatile shapes and shades. The first ever bikini came out of France in the 1940s and ever since has been a staple swimwear style in wardrobes across the globe. While we love these styles for beach days (duh), a bikini top is way more versatile than that. Wear your ‘kini under sheer, crochet tops or as a cute top paired with your maxi skirt. The outfit options are endless when you have just one bikini top in your collection. Not sure which bikini top you’ll love the most? Let’s take a closer look at the different variations of this iconic style.
Bikini Bottoms
Time to complete your bikini OOTD with some ultra-flattering bottoms. Our design team are pros at creating the dreamiest shapes and silhouettes and our viral bikini bottoms are no exception. From high cut bikinis to cheeky and ruched, our collection has a style for everyone. The best thing about bikinis is that the mix n’ match combos are endless. Any style we include in this blog can be paired with another one of your faves - experiment and see which colour combos you’re loving the most! Not sure which style to start with first? Let’s break down the different shapes and features of our best selling ‘kini bottoms.
Revisit this swimwear guide whenever you need help finding the perfect style for you. If you take one thing away from this blog, wear what makes you feel comfortable! Find a shape and style that you can see yourself wearing all-year-round and make the most of it. It’s easy to get carried away and get a ‘kini in every colour (don’t blame you), but before you do, fall in love with a style and make it your go-to. Good luck and make sure to tag us in your beach day OOTDs!
