I used to buy my bathing suits at H&M or Boathouse, and never got anything I really liked nor anything that fit well. I recently stumbled across some great designer brands, and once I got a taste of Italian fabric and high-end clasps, I was hooked. While the price point is significantly higher (from $180+), and the majority of them are based in the States or Australia, it's worth the extra money for something you love and fits well (though we're still in love with a bargain, too). Thanks to online shopping and generous return policies, it's still possible for us to indulge in some luxury brands from afar. Here are five bathing suits that are definitely worth the splurge for your next vacation or trip to the beach.
Made from Italian fabric and designed to fit like a glove, Cantik Swimwear has skimpy suits to embrace the 80’s with simplicity and sophistication. Known for their Byron one piece that is always sold out, specifically in palms print ($105), these suits are show stoppers (just make sure you’re ok with the Brazilian style bottoms.)
