This Lingerie-Inspired Bikini Is About to Be Everywhere—9 Styles to Buy If You Want to Look In-The-Know
Dua Lipa just wore the bikini trend that fashion people will be wearing on vacation this summer. Shop the best styles below.
Bikini season is officially on, making now the perfect time to be up to date on the trending silhouettes so you can refresh your summer wardrobe and enjoy the long, sun-soaked days in style. This year's bikini trends offer something for every person, from bikini shorts for the sporty dresser to embellished silhouettes for the maximalist dresser.
However, that's not all to look forward to this summer. If you ask the vacation queen, Dua Lipa, what bikini style is on-trend, her answer wouldn't be any of the above. Instead, it would probably be the lingerie-inspired design—a lace-trim bikini. How do we know? While honeymooning in Italy, specifically at Hotel Il Pellicano, Lipa was seen in an image sitting seaside playing a card game. For the occasion, she wore a yellow bikini with hot pink lace trim.
The romantic trend of lace-trimming has been having a moment in fashion for a little while now. Last summer, we saw it take hold in satin shorts, specifically the viral pair from Dôen. This spring, it was seen on everything from slip dresses and midi skirts to pants-and-camisole sets. And now it's on bikinis, proving that the lace-trim trend is not slowing down any time soon.
If you're inspired to get in on the look for your East Coast or European summer, keep scrolling. Ahead, we've rounded up the best lace-trim bikinis on the market right now.
