50's Style Retro Swimwear - Go Retro!
Every summer, girls who enjoy the beach have an opportunity to flaunt their fabulous swimwear. If you want to be unique, and catch attention from both men and women, then try wearing vintage or retro swimwear. Retro swimwear can be worn by all - it's not just for pinup girls. They can be classy and sexy at the same time. Wear them with the right attitude, and you'll be a head turner this summer.
Retro swimwear has been returning to the hot fashion trends for some time now. You can choose from many designs in the market. Most of these style are similar to the ones that have been popularised by renowned actresses in the 1940's and throughout the 1950's. You can choose to wear one-piece, two-piece bikini or even corset type suits.
Try these retro swimwear options that depict Hollywood glam at its finest. You can try Marilyn Monroe's famous swimwear looks. A halter bikini with a ruffled or gathered bust design, and ruched sides will flatter any body shape. Another gorgeous design, is a retro swimwear one piece with a flattering, plunging neckline that extends just below your bust and connects to a ruched waist. The ruched fabric that ends on the hips will conceal flab and bulges making you look even slimmer. If you do not like the ruffled designs, you can go for a swim skirt. These ones look like an extra-short mini-skirt. They'll have the same cut as the styles above, just a little longer and minus the ruching. You will look chic and classy in these 50's inspired swimsuits.
Give a Nod to 50's Retro Swimwear
Bikini retro swimwear options abound. Most tops are tied around the neck, and will make your shoulders stand out. The bottoms come in different looks and cover the buttocks well. Some have boyleg bikini cuts, others look like really frilly short skirts. The classic, vintage bottoms cover until the belly button and are great at covering your tummy. However, if they give you a muffin top, you can opt for pants with a low waisted bikini brief style instead. Vintage retro swimwear isn't just limited to the above-mentioned designs. You can go for the simple triangle orstring bikini too. Choose a polka dot pattern or ruffle accent using well-loved pastel colors of the 1950's. Alternatively pick up a bit of lace in a plain black retro swimsuit for a 50's swimwear nod.
If you're lucky maybe you won't even have to spend a dime to get in on the retro swimwear trend. Ask your mother or grandmother, maybe they have kept one of their retro swimwear bathing suits in perfect condition. Be fashion savvy and sport vintage retro swimwear this summer. Pair them with a large brim sunhat and retro sunglasses and you'll be getting everyone's attention.
