Everything at Miami Swim Week That We Saw—and Loved Miami Swim Week in Paraiso has been held for 20 years, and the swimsuits are still as stylish as ever. How about the vibes? Still flawless. The yearly event, which took over Miami Beach from May 29 to June 2, featured swim and resortwear designers showcasing their upcoming collections, which were full of vibrant colors, silhouettes, and designs. The boho-chic trend of summer 2024 served as a source of inspiration for several designers, who skillfully adapted it to create wardrobe staples for travelers and fashionistas alike. Worry not if you were unable to book a flight to Florida to witness the spectacle in person. We have compiled a list of the most popular trends from the shows for you to view and purchase in time for summer.
Statement Headpieces Everything at Miami Swim Week That We Saw—and Loved
There are various ways to style a silk scarf, but nothing says “free spirit” quite like a silk headscarf paired with your go-to pair of sunglasses. Remember Hunting Hue, where the runway displayed large and small, square and tie-shaped silk scarves. In addition to being worn as tiny sarongs, scarves were also worn as wrist and neck ties and, in certain cases, as complete cover-ups. Regardless of how you choose to wear it, this is undoubtedly the season’s must-have accessory.
Crush on Chartreuse
Miami Swim Week featured stunning greens on the runways, with chartreuse being the most striking color. The olive tone goes well with any summer vacation, whether it’s in the Mediterranean or the Caribbean.
Lovely in Pastel Colors
Predominately seen in ready-to-wear collections, feminine aesthetics are now making an appearance in swim and resortwear, especially in terms of color schemes. When summertime arrives, sage green, butter yellow, baby blue, and light lavender will be in style.
Become Athletic
Contrast piping is making a comeback in swimwear—the 1990s called. Contrast piping that is sporty, sleek, and minimalist doesn’t have to be colorless, as Acacia’s terracotta-infused patterns skillfully demonstrate. However, there are also lots of black-and-white choices available if you’re a purist.
Simple and Light
As evidenced by Chloé’s most recent collection, some refer to it as boho-chic, but when combined with swimwear, the ’70s-inspired style takes on a whole new meaning. With crochet, eyelets, and tons of white, it’s more than simply a fashion statement or a festival outfit—it’s a carefree, easygoing way of life.
Returning to Black
Sometimes the solution lies in simplicity. We adored the chic black swimwear at SHAN and Leslie Amon because of this. Whether you like one-piece maillots or bikinis, a simple black swimsuit never goes out of style. Give it the name LBS.
New Flowers
The rise of trendy flower designs breathes fresh life into pieces that draw inspiration from nature. In order to produce distinctive, flowering designs that offer a novel and, dare we say, aromatic perspective, designers experimented with color schemes and painterly patterns.
The Ideal Imperfection
Asymmetric silhouettes and cutouts will be huge, at least for those who are prepared to take the risk, despite tan lines. Regarding accessories, we advise using a lot of SPF in all the appropriate areas.
Stylish Crochet
Everybody wants to feel like they’re on an island sipping piña coladas while wearing a crochet minidress in the summer, no matter where they are. For carefree summertime enjoyment, leave it to these Miami designers to give you alternatives that effortlessly transport you from the beach to the bar and everything in between.
hote Pants
Is there another runway style that has permeated swimwear? Sexy pants. Possibly more useful than the widely popular no-pants movement, hot pants for swimming give you a timeless silhouette from the 1950s or 1960s with contemporary updates. And more power to you if you dare to wear them as pants somewhere else than the pool or beach!
