Swimwear Is in Its Anti-Risqué Era—30 Cool One-Piece Styles Defining the Summer
Pictured: Same Colorblock One Piece ($195)
Summer has arrived, and the search for a chic swimsuit is on. Most other summers, that's meant typing in "bikini" as a search term on your favorite retailer's sites, but this time around, the emphasis is shifting in the other direction, as one-piece swimsuits are becoming the epitome of cool swimwear for summer '24. According to a post by Data, But Make It Fashion, one-piece styles are garnering 24% more popularity in the month of June than bikinis, a surefire sign that the fuller-coverage fits are winning out.
Armed with this knowledge, I scoured my favorite sites and swimsuit brands to bring you the ultimate edit of the best one-piece swimsuits on the market. Hours of research and 50+ open tabs later, I've rounded up 30 chic suits that are so cool they'll make you forget all about your two-piece sets. What's more, you can just add a light cover-up and linen pants, jeans, shorts, or a slip skirt to take your look from the beach to lunch or the bar in style. Whether you lean toward classic silhouettes or statement prints, the styles below feel fresh, trend-forward, and versatile. Keep scrolling to get your swimsuit game on.
Hunza G's timeless swimsuits are the kinds of pieces you'll always find in the closets of the best dressed celebs.
Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and Jasmine Tookes are fans of this exact suit. Need I say more?
No need to fuss with the accessories when your swimsuit already looks this good.
I usually stick to black or white, but whenever I stray from them, it's always to this equally wearable olive green.
Contrast trimming is one of the biggest swim trends right now, and this sporty one-piece nails it.
This comes pre-belted for that little something *extra.*
Sorry, but this is way too chic to only wear as a swimsuit. Add trousers and take it out to dinner—I'm begging you.
I'm calling the combination of this silhouette and color "luxe minimalism."
This strikes me as the kind of silhouette that will look good on any figure.
This is reversible, so it's like getting two swimsuits in one.
