10 Australian Swimwear Brands That The Marie Claire Team Love To Shop

Because it's essential to shop for yourself - by Isabelle Truman

10 Australian Swimwear Brands That The Marie Claire Team Love To Shop

The marie claire office is a sacred space. It's a place where online deliveries don't have to be rushed quickly inside and hidden from significant others or explained away as being 'a present' (without mentioning it's for one's self). There's no having to spell out why every single summer you need a new bikini—or that ultra-flattering one piece you spotted on Instagram—because we not only understand, but we're all shopping for it too. 

To make you feel that little bit better about treating yourself to new swimwear for the summer, we've rounded up the Australian labels we're shopping which are guaranteed to look incredible, be on trend, last the distance and won't break the bank.

Below, 10 of the marie claire team's favourite swim brands.

Peony Swimwear

Sumbaed and smiling ❤️ @nihisumba #MyNihi

Everyone from Bella Hadid to Bambi Northwood-Blyth are obsessed with Aussie boutique label, Peony - and for good reason. The brand walks the perfect line between trend and timeless, meaning anything you buy will look incredible on the 'gram grid, but also last the distance and won't go out of style. In November, Peony got one of the biggest ticks of approval in fashion: Net-A-Porter as a stockist. The result has been an influx of celebrities, models, influencers and editors (guilty as charged) fawning over the brand and it's effortlessly cool-girl offering.
