Bathing Suit Trends to Leave Behind for Summer 2025

If you’re looking for the top swimwear trends of summer 2025, search no further. Ira Lysa exclusively tells us, “This is the season of minimalism with meaning.” For starters, she recommends one-piece suits, with basic black having a major moment this year. Black is flattering on everyone, and it’s available in a variety of styles, from halters that help support our chests to high-cut legs that help lengthen our gams. For example, the SUUKSESS Women’s Halter One-Piece Swimsuit is jet black and has a ruffle around the bust line for added intrigue.

If you’re looking for a fresh take on bottoms, skip the skimpy Brazilian micro-bikini bottoms and step into a pair of short shorts instead. They can look equally seductive but with a more playful vibe. When it comes to bikini tops, instead of the outdated upside-down triangles, opt for a demi-cup, balconette, or other style like scalloped that adds a pretty element at the bust line. 

To replace neons, Lysa recommends earth tones. Think brown shades and muted green hues; sage green, for one, has taken over for “Brat” green, the outdated fashion color we’re saying goodbye to in 2025. For instance, the CUPSHE Women’s One-Piece Bathing Suit hits both style and color trends this year. And for a fun texture to replace crochet, try on-trend ribbed or crinkled swimwear. As Lysa concludes, “These styles not only look fantastic, they look like choices, empowering ones at that.” Now, for more figure-hugging tips, check out our guide to finding the perfect bathing suit for your body type.
