With an array of brands and fashion designers giving their unique twist to the two-piece swimwear, the itsy-bitsy bikini has become a staple in every fashionista’s wardrobe.

There’s always a tankini if you want to cover up. Take inspiration from Katrina Kaif’s tankini featuring a tank top and a matching bikini top in the colour pink. You can also layer it up with a bright coloured jacket and accessorize with a bandana and cool pair of sunglasses.
Ananya Panday
Bandeau style bikini with straps is a great option to enhance your assets. Ananya Panday sets perfect beach vibes in a pastel bikini. You can get creative and style this monochrome bikini with a print shrug or robe.
Alia Bhatt
Bikini bottoms come in all shapes and sizes. From thongs to high waist bottoms, there is something for everyone. Alia Bhatt opts for a high waist bikini bottom and pairs it with a strapless bandeau bikini top. The colour blocking on the bikini makes it a fun swimwear to add to your travel diaries.
While colours and trends are the first thing that attracts you to a bikini, it is important that you pick swimwear based on the fabric. Quick dry technique and elasticity is what you need to keep in mind when you go bikini shopping. End of the day, it’s all about your comfort, so pick something that complements you and don’t just buy it because it is trending on social media.
