The Classic Red Swimsuit I'll Never Ditch and 23 More I Found Just For You
As we move closer to summer (and closer to actually having a summer this year), it's really only a matter of time until we see a bunch of new swimsuit trends burst on the scene. While I'm sure I'll be adding a few new styles to my own closet (and therefore ditching a few older ones), there's one particular swimsuit I own that I won't be purging from my closet this year, next year, or hopefully for many years to come.
It's a classic one-piece, The C suit from Candice Swanepoel's Tropic of C line, in a bright cherry red hue that, to me, feels especially timeless. Maybe Baywatch was onto something after all, because the more I reach for this suit, the more I'm convinced that red is one of the most classic colors you can go for in swimwear. It's not just once-pieces like mine but string bikinis and high-waisted numbers, too, that possess that buy now-wear forever quality. To prove it, I'm highlighting the best red swimsuits in the market right now. Keep scrolling to shop them all.
You can't convince these puff sleeves are only made for the beach. A suit this stunning deserves to be worn away from the water, too.
