Swimwear – 10 Trends for 2010!

.

We checked out the very best swimwear from designer to mass channel retailer and found 10 key trends that we feel are destined for even bigger things – next Spring/Summer season. The best trends are clearly a reflection of what is happening in apparel. One of the most obvious trends is ‘mismatched’ two piece swimwear. This trend proves that an eclectic mix is what a girl is looking for. She simply does not want a highly formulaic ‘matchy matchy’ wardrobe and wants to mix it up herself. The answer – a wide range of separates in the very best bikini shapes! It’s all about ‘individuality’. Bikinis VS One Piece? In our opinion – bikinis win hands down!

1. Global Village Prints – batiks, ikats, African and Indonesian inspired.

2. Graphic ‘Bi’ Color Prints – two color combinations work best.

3. Liberty Florals – small, pretty and very feminine florals.

4. Mismatched Separates – Either bikini or ‘tankini’ pairings.

5. Nautical – ‘Ships Ahoy’ & Breton stripes.

6. Asymmetric One Shoulder – Thank you Michelle Obama!

7. Paisley Prints – Exotic, archival or geometric and fun.

8. Polka Dots – Best seen in classic two color combinations.

9. Goddess Inspired – Hollywood glamor in ruched and gathered looks.

10. Ruffles – Feminine and pretty ruffle trim detailing.
