The 9 best white swimsuits for any kind of summer vacation

One-piece or bikini, either are perfect for creating carefree looks


JUNE 13, 2020 9:35 AM EDT

Soaking up the sun at the beach – or by the pool, in your backyard or on your deck – means you need the perfect swimsuit and this season’s trend is white. Summer fashion trends this year suggest that minimalism and solid colors are the best bet for ultra-modern outfits and are just as sexy as bold graphic prints.

 Jennifer Lopez  and  Bella Hadid  have already proved on social media how amazing one-piece swimsuits and monochromatic bikinis look; all you have to do is add a few interesting accessories. So, if you want to really shine this summer, just pick one of the styles in this gallery (or one of the many other white swimsuits out there).

Plunging necklines

The monochrome look means that the knots and draped fabrics will accentuate the daringly deep necklines that are big this season. The plunging v-neck on the Andie One Piece by Tori Praver Swimwear is daringly dramatic (Revolve, $159).

Triangle bikinis

Go with the quintessential summer classic, like this Basic Seam Two Piece Set by Oséree ($200), with super-thin straps. The golden trim is a subtle accent that is sure to turn heads.

Retro vibe in crochet

If you’re looking for a design that has some Bonhemian charm to it, and that you can also wear with denim shorts or maxi dresses, the best option for you is a crochet swimsuit. The Aisha Tankini by Tularosa stands out from the rest thanks to its cap sleeves and high-rise bottoms (Revolve, $158).

Romantic swimsuits

Feminine and flattering, especially if you’ve got a smaller chest, designs with ruffles are always a great choice. Here in shiny white you’ve got the Ruffle Scoop Back One Piece from Sugar Coast by Lolli White (Target, $39.99).

Jacquard for extra style

White swimsuits may not be the most dramatic fashion look; but that doesn’t mean they have to be boring. The jacquard Floral Balconette Bikini from Oysho (Top, $22.99. Briefs, $15.99) adds elegant texture with its slightly-raised embroidery.

Impeccably chic

Let glamour be your guide this summer in the Ring One Shoulder One Piece from Shoshanna, a design with a wavy crinkle-effect that slims your figure, and a tortoiseshell ring to add a touch of contrast. Try wearing it as a bodysuit with skirts and platforms. (Shopbop, $144).

A sporty bandeau

For those of you who are looking for comfort, but don’t want to miss out on the season’s hottest beach looks, there’s nothing like a sleek, semi-elastic, strapless bikini top that will allow you to play volleyball without any worries. And if it’s white, like the Waves Summer Bikini by Eberjey, even better! (Revolve, Top $96. Bottom, $88).

Nineties

The solid-colored swimsuits that were all the rage in the 1990s are back – with their simple lines and strategic cutouts revealing the perfect amount of skin – like the Kerr One Piece by Lovewave. You’ll be a total beach babe! (Revolve, $138).

Mini white swimsuits!

There are certain trends in fashion that leave no one indifferent, even less so if you’re an influencer or one of the Kardashian-Jenner sisters. The Nile Jean Bikini by Hunza G is the perfect example of that: mini, with an adjustable top and knot in the front. Pair it with some flashy accessories to spice up your look.
