Designer Bikinis

From LoveToKnow Swimsuits

Designer bikinis give you the latest cutting edge styles with the quality, reliability, and prestige that only a high-profile brand can provide. Technically, every swimsuit is a designer piece as someone, somewhere, sat at a drawing board and designed the style's intricacies. But what is typically implied by the term "designer bikinis" is that a leading designer or top name has crafted the design you will be purchasing.

The Big Brands of Swimwear

Names like, Calvin Klein, Dolce & Gabbana, Prada, and Burberry are typically on the lists in every socialite's swimwear wardrobe. Lesser, but well noted entities include:

Diane von Furstenberg
Shoshanna
Brette Sandler
Tyler Rose
Michael Kors

Each of these designers has been noted on A-list Hollywood celebrities. In fact, the longevity and popularity of a designer depends solely on the status of the people who wear his or her designs.

Athletic brands such as Nike and Roxy survive in the spotlight due to the athletes who depend on these names to provide them with the best water-sportswear possible.

The Benefits of Designer Bikinis

Bikinis aren't just back in style, they've never been out of it. Americans everywhere are squeezing the last hours out of their gym membership in order to pave their way to the beach season. However, designer bikinis go above and beyond what your average Joe designer can offer.

A high designer bikini is cut to perfection in order to provide you with the most flattering and daring designs that money can buy. Gone are unsightly bagging bikini briefs and amateur materials. The Tyler Rose Ivy bikini is a flawless example of what designer swimwear can offer. Naturally, this cut is trimmed as low and showy as a bikini can get, but the metallic low-rise ruched briefs promise that any bagging you see is intentional and fashionable. The top is an interesting take on the traditional halter top. It bears all the advantages of a bra-top combined with the fun ties of wearing a triangle. Coverage is questionably ample in order to reveal a very sexy you to pool side passersby.

You'll look remarkably cool and put together in a simple but haute design such as the Ivy bikini, and this is just the beginning! High designers understand that it's not just an article of clothing but the entire ensemble that makes for a memorable icon. This is exactly why designer bikinis are often created alongside a full line of accessories matched and intended for your swimwear.

Designers such as Diane von Furstenberg are known for their ability to milk your beach-time ambience, which is why so many of her designer bikinis can be purchased with complimenting towels, beach bags, and cover ups. Her Coral Red Solid String bikini is fabulous enough on its own, but why not add a little kick with a flattering Diane von Furstenberg beach towel? You're making the fashionable most of your sunshine time when you start purchasing designer bikinis from high-name boutiques. One thing is for sure, you're bound to get noticed as much for your looks as your sensational taste.

Juicy Couture is a notorious name in swimwear. Known for its ability to create an entire line of matching swimsuits, flip flop sandals, beach towels, and beach bags, Juicy Couture is royalty when it comes to summer fun. The clever mix-and-match bikini styles look enchanting when paired with Juicy's beach towels, beach bags and amazing sunglasses. You'll be a pastel pink couture queen when you hit the shoreline, and although you'll be paying a fair amount for these fashionable ensembles, you will also be the owner of some of the most-coveted couture items that celebrities swear by.

Many designer bikinis can be found at special swimwear boutiques such as Everything But Water. Major department stores like Neiman Marcus and Saks Fifth Avenue will also carry the latest high-designer looks.
