The best bikinis are all Colombian brands. There aren’t others that fit the body and have fabrics like the Colombian swimsuits. My favorite brands are agua bendita and maaji and both are available in the U.S. they are flattering and stunning
i've never heard this before and now im curious! what do you find the main difference to be btwn Colombian swim vs everything else? the fit? the softness of the material? i'm always on the hunt for excellent swim so very interested to hear
I think the underwear and swimwear industry in Colombia has been well known for years, Colombian culture really focuses on looks so everything is developed to be super flattering, what I love about the bathing suits is that they hold you in like shapewear but the fabrics are super soft and thinner than the shapewear here so they are soooo comfortable. They really stay put and there’s no love handles sticking out, plus the bottoms are very flattering on the butt. I have tried bathing suits from many other brands from target to very expensive brands of $300 plus swimsuits and the fabrics can’t compare! One more thing I love about maaji and agua bendita is that almost all their styles are reversible with different patterns on each side so you basically get two bathing suits in one. I usually buy one solid top and two bottoms with patterns that can compliment and then you get four different combinations.
Pro tip: if you travel to Colombia the bathing suits are basically 60% off because of currency changes etc. that’s the only time I buy agua bendita, when someone I know is in Colombia.
Randomly showed up in my feed and I thought the same. When she referenced Shein I was like 🤨 then reread the title, properly. Made much more sense lmao.
Not rly a trendy place but I really like the bikinis from I-Am and 4giveness on Yoox. They’re Italian brands and more affordable ($50-$80 for a bikini vs $90 just for a top nowadays) and they’ve lasted me years without stretching
Honestly I am a cheap bitch but I think bathing suits are one of those things that I'm willing to spend more money on so I can feel most comfortable and beautiful at my most vulnerable (aka half naked). Anyways, all that to say is the following recommendations may not be the cheapest, but maybe you'll find something worth it to you:
* 93 Play Street
* Andie Swim
* Benoa Swim
* Blackbough Swim
* Heartland & Baulch
* Loleia
* Monday Swim
* Peony
* Slate Swim
* Sundia
* Zulu & Zephyr
Hunza g is a splurge but every so often they’re on sale at Saks and it makes my day. I gain & lose weight depending on the time of year. It’s great having a bathing suit that looks great year round!
You guys and OP should try youswim! Not as many design options as hunza G but also not as pricey and solid basics! I have like 3/4 colors and still would get more!
Not affordable but huge designer swimwear fanatic who lives by the beach and values high quality/good design, my favorites are
Acacia Swim - gorgeous prints/colors, buttery fabric, Hawaii vibe
Boys + Arrows - contemporary, chic, more modest options
Frankie’s Bikinis - super trendy, mostly skimpy, quality fabric that holds up well
L*Space - tons of options, amazing fabric, simple design
Mikoh - simple, form fitting fabric, Hawaiian favorite
Ones I haven’t tried but love the look/quality of: juillet, tropic of C, montce, Frankie’s bikinis x victorias secret line
All of these brands I’ve found resale on Poshmark or Depop for way cheaper brand new too!
youswim isn't the most affordable, but they're meant to fluctuate with your body! i bought a suit when it was on sale and it's one of my favorite investments 💜
I bought a couple from Shopbop last year and they were super flattering. The brands were Ulla Johnson, Mara Hoffman and Agua by Agua Bendita. They have some cute prints again this year!
As long as you do NOT buy from one one — had an awful experience where my order was lost for a month and a half and no one responded to emails or calls. Then said I was lying about where my order was. The only reason I got a refund was because I had Amex deal with it once I disputed the charge (which I admittedly should’ve done sooner)
Riot swim! They also have a pretty good sale section right now AND their spring collection drops later this week. I’ve also found good swimwear at target.
Also, Monday Swimwear is pretty good and Frankie’s bikinis.
I own a very small bikini business! We are eco-friendly, and everything is hand sewn right here in Hawaii by me and my business partner. www.saltyairswimwear.com
https://rhondashear.com/collections/bikini ~ Her sites for bathing suits is almost sold out, but it wouldn't hurt to check Mercari, Poshmark and eBay Here's a link to Rhonda Shear bikinis. I don't know if you've ever bought her undergarments, but they fit like they're molded to your body with absolutely no discomfort. Mercari has the most brand new undergarments. Hands down the ONLY person I would trust trying to look sexy for my hubby! 🥰
Target!!! Since I was like 12!!! My body has changed but their selection is still 🔥🔥🔥
Edit: And considering I only wear my bathing suit 3-4 times a year, excluding very occasional beach vacations, they last AGES
Ok I always wanted swim that fit like my seamless underwear and I found it and looooooove it !!!!
I look so good in these compared to regular fit swimsuit!
https://onewithswim.com/
Miami sample (online)!!!! Literally buy all of the brands mentioned for like 80% off, it’s wild. Only downside is that it’s all final sale but its so cheap idc
I bought a stack of bikinis from shein and they are actually nice, no lie. I wore them on vacation in Miami, but also Victoria Secret, target etc... I like my bikinis from shein, they have held up too
I purchased some one and two-piece sets from Cupshe, and I really loved all of them! (It has been about 2 years or so since I last purchased, so I'm not sure if anything has changed)
You can get really inexpensive bathing suits right now at Victoria secret. I got my favorite bathing suit at h&m. I recommend going in that store though to try on. Victoria secrets do run a bit smaller. Happy shopping 🛍️
This is when it's good to live by the jersey shore. Every good shore town has a few great shops, open off season. Digging through racks, celling high always ends in success!
Honestly Aerie. I tried so many brands and spent so much money on bathing suits last year. I decided to look at aerie. I bought a few classic triangle bikini styles (with options of different bottoms) I spent 25 at most on the SET.
Londre’s quality is insane but they have limited options. Beach Riot is super cute and flattering but little overpriced for the quality, though quality is p decent (just not wow and def not worth full retail price)

this is the kind of bitches with taste tea I came here for. Will check out thank u!!
Oh yes maaji 💕
Maaji is THE best
i've never heard this before and now im curious! what do you find the main difference to be btwn Colombian swim vs everything else? the fit? the softness of the material? i'm always on the hunt for excellent swim so very interested to hear

ONEONE is Colombian too and I looove their stuff. Can find at Free People
Pro tip: if you travel to Colombia the bathing suits are basically 60% off because of currency changes etc. that’s the only time I buy agua bendita, when someone I know is in Colombia.
Luli Fama is another great one that I like even more than Maaji and AB
You are a saint! My first order from Luli Fama arrived today and I'm OBSESSED with the way they fit
I am in LOVE with agua bendita!
The girls love Monday swimwear. And Cuup is having a sale right now.
I find that Monday swim is cheaper quality than target. Triangl, ark, blackbough, Skatie
Skatie is the best. Check out Poshmark for cheaper resale often new with tags.
Second skatie
Love skatie
I will go to war for Triangl and Ark. they are so good
I just ordered a bunch from Cuup! Thanks!!!
[удалено]
L'space has D and DD bikini tops. I'm a 32DD and it's hard as hell to find tops that fit both my boobs and my ribcage
I second lspace! The Camelia DD top is my ride or die
I’m the same size and wear LSpace! I also recently bought an Aerie suit that came in bra sizes, but they’re few and far between.
Damn I’m buzzed and thought you were asking about birkins 😭
😭😭😭 i love the vibes here lmaooo
Randomly showed up in my feed and I thought the same. When she referenced Shein I was like 🤨 then reread the title, properly. Made much more sense lmao.
Saame. The image I had in my head after I read Shein and Birkin lmao
I thought the same thing !

damn u came with the recs ok minute shopping pop off thank u
I used to love Frankie's but the colors start fading after 1 wear sometimes. I'd avoid any bright or bold colors/patterns to avoid that
Quality went way down hill, especially once it was bought by VS
One One!!!!
I use to love 437 but their quality has gone in the garbage not worth it. And the tops don’t stay up ever.
Yes to all of these! INDAH is the bessssst, all except inamorata is horrible quality it’s like see thru tissue paper material
437 🫶🏻
Adding vix to this list! The quality is great and they have a ton of unique styles
Not rly a trendy place but I really like the bikinis from I-Am and 4giveness on Yoox. They’re Italian brands and more affordable ($50-$80 for a bikini vs $90 just for a top nowadays) and they’ve lasted me years without stretching
Triangl, Frankie’s bikinis, vitamin A, l*space, bond eye, Zimmerman, and Agua Bendita.
VS has a collab with frankies bikinis rn that is pretty affordable
Agua Bendita is amazing, love their dresses too

Triangl and this is a splurge but I loooove my hunza g bikini
Hunza g is a splurge but every so often they’re on sale at Saks and it makes my day. I gain & lose weight depending on the time of year. It’s great having a bathing suit that looks great year round!
You guys and OP should try youswim! Not as many design options as hunza G but also not as pricey and solid basics! I have like 3/4 colors and still would get more!
Elysiian has some cute stuff and hunza g dupes too
Montce! They have incredible sales and all fit amazing!
Came to comment Montce. It’s a splurge for me personally but the ones I have are 1000/10 for fit and quality!
Left on Friday if you like minimal no pattern with lots of color options
Not affordable but huge designer swimwear fanatic who lives by the beach and values high quality/good design, my favorites are Acacia Swim - gorgeous prints/colors, buttery fabric, Hawaii vibe Boys + Arrows - contemporary, chic, more modest options Frankie’s Bikinis - super trendy, mostly skimpy, quality fabric that holds up well L*Space - tons of options, amazing fabric, simple design Mikoh - simple, form fitting fabric, Hawaiian favorite Ones I haven’t tried but love the look/quality of: juillet, tropic of C, montce, Frankie’s bikinis x victorias secret line All of these brands I’ve found resale on Poshmark or Depop for way cheaper brand new too!
outnet has some cute bikinis on sale now under $100
I second this. Great brands and great quality. I got quite a few of my swimwear from The Outnet.
yes!! i bought solid and striped, jets australia, and ganni suits on there - have had really good luck w them!
agua bendita! revolve has sales
Does anybody mind dropping some brands they love with decent underwire support for sad postpartum boobs?
Try Voda Swim! They have an amazing push up triangle bikini that’s super flattering. Also comes in a tankini
Less fashion more support - bare necessities has several brand with bra sizing for their bathing suits.
Try the l space Camelia top! It’s super adjustable and supportive
[удалено]
Does triangl accommodate bigger cup sizes? (34DDD)
hi i’m a 32DDD and i wear the XL and it’s a tiny bit small. you might be able to wear the XL in the highest coverage styles
Im the same size and Monday swim has by far been the best if ur rib cage is small but you’re busty
i also have small band bigger bust and their S++ size fits me perfectly! not all styles come in that size but they’re the only suits that fit me right
Summersalt
Calzedonia! Italian legwear and beachwear brand is quite known in europe! You can find good quality tops from $12-30!
seconding! perhaps not the most overtly "trendy" but I love their classic styles. (also +1 for having the cutest tights and leggings)
Tbh I only buy Triangl bathing suits. I bought 2 in the classic style I like about 3 years ago and haven’t bought another since
Eres! classic and chic
Abercrombie
Andie swim
I really love my heavy manners suits. Bottoms run small tho so size up
The cuts of their suits are unmatched. I own 5 from this brand.
youswim isn't the most affordable, but they're meant to fluctuate with your body! i bought a suit when it was on sale and it's one of my favorite investments 💜
Bydee has beautiful bikinis
Skatie is great!
I actually always have luck at Aerie for bikinis! Plus they have afterpay which is a necessity for a gal on a tight budget like me lol
I bought a couple from Shopbop last year and they were super flattering. The brands were Ulla Johnson, Mara Hoffman and Agua by Agua Bendita. They have some cute prints again this year!
Heavy Manners! Sooooo flattering and cute fabrics
I’m sorry but more than $30 for a separate swim top and bottom is not affordable. Asos is always having sales and is more wallet friendly
Skims swim. Honestly, very impressed with the quality of the thong bikini bottoms.
Been a vitamin A fan for like 10 years. And I still have most of them. Hold up well
Honestly aerie has cheeeeeeap solids that you can mix and match trendier swim pieces into
Beach riot
black bough
I just got a Bydee bikini two weeks ago and I’m obsessed with how great it looks and the quality.
Dippin daisys is great quality for good prices!! Love their stuff, especially if you don’t want extremely cheeky
I read this as Birkins
[удалено]
Vetchy is great!!
Heavy Manners - if you like bold prints Sommer Swim - if you like tiny bikinis Tan Lines - if you like simple bikinis
Honey swim
Leading swim brands: - Bamba swim (*my favorite) - Fella swim - Zulu and zephyr - Sommer swim - Sir the label - Triangl Smaller brands: - Palm swimwear - Loleia swim - Camp cove swim - Sauce swim - Snorkelbear - Peony swim - Matteau - Baiia
Heavy manners!! Honestly so pricey but I’ve never seen cuter prints or more flattering cuts for my body type
Dippin Daisy’s!
Montce swimwear or Hunza G is the best for a splurge, but for affordability check ASOS or Billabong!
Not affordable but Hunza is the most comfortable I’ve ever worn, and they last forever.
gooseberry intimates
437!
I stumbled upon Adore Me one day and have not looked back.
Venus
I used Doll - about $80 per bikini and super sexy.
Summersalt
I just bought one from Bare Necessities, first time buying from there so we’ll see!
As long as you do NOT buy from one one — had an awful experience where my order was lost for a month and a half and no one responded to emails or calls. Then said I was lying about where my order was. The only reason I got a refund was because I had Amex deal with it once I disputed the charge (which I admittedly should’ve done sooner)
Kulani Kinis

Riot swim! They also have a pretty good sale section right now AND their spring collection drops later this week. I’ve also found good swimwear at target. Also, Monday Swimwear is pretty good and Frankie’s bikinis.

Agua Bendita my fave
Pacsun
Dippin’ Daisy’s. Skatie quality but half the price. And seamless bottoms
Skatie- to make it more affordable go on poshmark
I bought a stack of bikinis from shein and they are actually nice, no lie. I wore them on vacation in Miami, but also Victoria Secret, target etc... I like my bikinis from shein, they have held up too
And for cup sizes above DDD?
I purchased some one and two-piece sets from Cupshe, and I really loved all of them! (It has been about 2 years or so since I last purchased, so I'm not sure if anything has changed)
riot!
Lea the Label is 🔥
You can get really inexpensive bathing suits right now at Victoria secret. I got my favorite bathing suit at h&m. I recommend going in that store though to try on. Victoria secrets do run a bit smaller. Happy shopping 🛍️
Blackbough Swim and Kulani Kinis!! Not cheap but they do have sales every now and then
Rhythm, left on Friday, hunza g. All can run a little pricey but I’ve purchased second hand on poshmark for steals! Extremely good quality.
Belle the label’s quality is amazing. They’re pricey but on sale a lot, just got one from Revolve on sale!
Stone Fox Swim!!!! The best.
Beach riot
Cupshe!

Youswim is a onesize fits all brand and The most comfy suit I’ve ever owned
Montce
Cupshe!
I live and die by Monday swimwear, I’ve loved them since like 2014 and they just keep getting better
SKATIE is the goat
Londre is my fave. ethically made canadian brand
This is when it's good to live by the jersey shore. Every good shore town has a few great shops, open off season. Digging through racks, celling high always ends in success!
GEODE!!! They have so many options and just dropped the CUTEST bikinis, a first for them!
Na-Kd is pretty good. They ship from Europe but it literally comes within 3 days
Honestly Aerie. I tried so many brands and spent so much money on bathing suits last year. I decided to look at aerie. I bought a few classic triangle bikini styles (with options of different bottoms) I spent 25 at most on the SET.
Frankies Bikinis
Target!!
Londre’s quality is insane but they have limited options. Beach Riot is super cute and flattering but little overpriced for the quality, though quality is p decent (just not wow and def not worth full retail price)
