Most Desired: 5 bikinis that will instantly refresh your holiday wardrobe

By Kitty McGee

7 years ago

If your holiday wardrobe is looking tired, it might be time to invest in some seriously chic swimwear. These bikinis will not only look insane on but they were made to be worn with basics - so will elevate your washed-out denim shorts and old white cotton shirts too. Win-win.

Summer’s chicest pieces come in a subtle, neutral palette from white and cream to oatmeal and camel. This striped Zimmermann bikini from Net-a-Porter’s new high-summer offering is the perfect base for your poolside wardrobe.

This two-piece is everything I want from my swimwear; flattering, versatile and functional, it also works with the entirety of my largely monochrome summer wardrobe.

I like that this bikini feels young and fun but the colour elevates it. I’ll wear it under white floaty dresses with a straw bag for an easy beach-to-bar look.

Terracotta is the colour of the summer. Not as harsh as orange and more grown up than red, I like it best in swimwear form and this style from Three Graces London is the perfect way to wear it. Just add blue denim, tan accessories and a linen cover-up.

For me, Lisa Marie Fernandez does the ultimate bikini: comfy, well-cut and always a nod to sporty. This will slot into my holiday wardrobe seamlessly, it works with everything from full length semi-sheer dresses to bright cotton cover-ups and even really casual T-shirts and shorts. It’s the ultimate summer investment.
