I Just Designed a Swim Line, and These 3 Bikini Trends Are Elite
Turning 18 is momentous enough, but when you're celebrating your first-ever fashion line on the same day, it's definitely an occasion to remember. Storm Reid's new PacSun swimwear collection just launched on her birthday yesterday, and I got the scoop straight from the source. I interviewed Reid about her favorite bikini trends, the collab's mission, and more.
"I've always loved swimsuits and have an expansive collection at home, so when creating this collection, I wanted pieces that felt luxurious but effortless, creating fashion without restriction," Reid told Who What Wear when asked about why she chose to venture into swimwear for her first line.
The Storm Reid x PacSun ArashiBlu Collection consists of bikini tops and bottoms, one-piece swimsuits, sarongs, cover-up dresses, scarves, and more. She named the pieces after her friends, including some famous names you'll certainly recognize, such as Zendaya and Gigi Hadid. Reid told us that one of her favorite pieces, the Paris Bikini Top with puff sleeves, is named after her sister Paris. How sweet is that? Scroll down to shop three of Reid's favorite bikini trends as well as other pieces from the collection.

Erin got her start as a Who What Wear intern over 12 years ago—back when the site only published a single story per day. (Who What Wear has since increased that number twentyfold.) She graduated magna cum laude from USC, which is how she ended up moving to Los Angeles from her hometown of San Diego. In college, she also interned at Refinery29, where she was promoted to editorial assistant and then assistant editor. After nearly three years at R29, she came back to WWW in 2016, where she currently holds the title of senior news editor (as well as the unofficial title of resident royal expert—in case you haven't noticed her numerous Meghan Markle and Kate Middleton stories). She spends her days trying to incorporate her idols, Anna Wintour and Roger Federer, into as many stories as possible. Outside of work, she loves tennis, classic rock, traveling, and smothering her dog with affection.
