20 Sexy Season Swimsuits For Every Shape, Size And Budget

With summer holidays so close we can literally smell the coconut oil, it's time to get your wardrobe sorted so you can hit the beach feeling sexy in your swimwear. There's nothing like investing in a sexy bikini or chic one-piece to make you feel like a million bucks. We've rounded up some of the hottest trends for summer 2019 - think animal print, velvet (yep you read that right), neons, polka dots and even brown. So whatever your style, shape and budget we've got you covered (so to speak...)

One Pieces

Nothing is more chic than a one-piece and this season they're anything but boring, think bold colours, polka dots and unexpected (tan) lines...

1. Zimmermann Juniper Ruched 1PC, $275.00
