If I were to write a short list of clothing items that scare me, somewhere after super-tight dresses and before uncomfortable shoes and white jeans, you'd find white bathing suits. I don't particularly love wearing bathing suits in the first place (but buy them anyway), so if you take a category that already makes me uncomfortable and choose a white, nowhere-to-hide iteration, I'm downright petrified. Nonetheless, you can imagine my confusion when I suddenly noticed how many of my favorite swimsuits are actually white. Maybe seeing so many of them helped, but I'd be lying if I said I didn't end up ordering a couple while researching swimwear trend stories.
Will I end up channeling my inner Sofia Richie Grainge this summer? Only time will tell, but for now, I figured I'd make the case for buying the trend for the upcoming season. Ahead, you'll find all the best white swimsuits at every price point plus examples of how some of my other favorite stylish women are pulling off white swimwear. From bikinis to one-pieces, these white suits are sure to sell you on the trend, as they did for me.
This could definitely double as a top.
