Billabong Swimwear

Anyone looking for cutting edge swimsuits might want to take a look at Billabong swimwear. Billabong has long provided men and women with affordable, fashionable bathing suit options.

Cutting edge swimsuits.

You want a swimsuit or trunks that people will notice, but you don't want to spend an arm and a leg for this attention. You can outfit yourself in Billabong swimwear and turn heads without going broke.

Billabong is known for innovative styles in swimsuits, casual wear, bags and accessories. The patterns on the bikinis are fresh and exciting, while the men's styles come in both classic and funky designs. Board shorts are a big part of Billabong swimwear as well, for guys as well as girls. You don't have to be a surfer to appreciate this brand, however, it's for anyone who loves fun in the sun.

With names like Lovestruck, Lush and Californication, you'd expect to find some sizzling swimwear in the Billabong women's collection, and you wouldn't be disappointed. Bikinis make up a large portion of the women's Billabong swimwear. You need to be confident and fit to pull off these looks. While you can always buy a two-piece in a selection of fashionable colors and prints, you can also buy tops and bottoms separately, for a custom suit and fit.

If you're looking for a particular style of top, Billabong carries these to choose from:

• Malibu Slide: Typically what many people think of when they hear the words "bikini top," this style is a basic triangle shape with skinny ties.

• Ocean Halter: This offers more coverage than the Malibu slide, but is still very flattering with its deep V-neck.

• Aruba: This is more of a bandeau top, with an interesting twist in the middle.

• Ipanea: Similar in design to the Malibu slide, but with thicker straps at the neck and the middle of the back.

Match the tops with these bottoms. It's your choice whether you want more coverage or less:

• Summer Pant: A full coverage seat adds a modest look to these basic bikini bottoms.

• Hawaii Tie Pant: Skinny string ties on the sides add visual interest to these full coverage pants.

• Lowrider: Like the name suggests, these bottoms will sit at your hips. They're along the same design lines as the summer pant, with a moderately cut seat.

• Chica: This is perfect for girls who like the boy short look. Side ties add some flair.

Many of the men's trunks call to mind the surfing lifestyle, which is no surprise when you consider that Billabong swimwear originates in Australia, where surfing is extremely popular. There are different collections in the men's division, including Havana and the Signature series. For the environmentally-conscious guy, there's even some eco-friendly choices.

What you won't find are styles meant to fade into the background. From the bright orange, pink and yellow on 1986 Havana to the bold color blocks on Delinquent, these swim trunks are made to stand out.

You can view all of the current styles at the Billabong site. Use their Store Locator function to find out where you can purchase Billabong swimwear, whether you prefer to shop in person or online. These Internet retailers carry a selection of Billabong:

• Moosejaw
• Tactics
• Swell

If you live near the ocean, be sure to stop in your local surf shops. They probably carry Billabong swimwear, especially if surfing is popular in that area.

With such a huge selection of casual and sporty attire, as well as swimwear, you can easily outfit yourself in this brand year-round if swimming and surfing are your passions. Billabong remains on the cutting edge of surfer style and beachwear fashions, so if looking hip and modern are some of your goals while at the beach—or just hanging out—take a peek at the newest looks from this company.
