There are many emotional stages one goes through while online shopping for swimwear. Excitement (for hot girl summer), shock (at some of the prices), intrigue (of how much booty you will be showing this year), exhaustion (there’s literally a million swimwear brands), confusion (is that actually meant to go in the water?) and so on. Knowing where to begin is as difficult as knowing where to end and click place your order. Sometimes it takes until August to figure it out.

To help you avoid this emotional roller coaster, we’ve rounded up our favorite suits for 2021 from the brands we love and trust.

Follow Suit

A few years ago it seems as though we all gave up on mix-and-match suits. There's nobody better to make it cool again than Candice Swanepoel's hit brand, Tropic of C.

Solid & Striped 

This is how you do elevated sporty.

Riot Swim

Riot Swim uses the softest fabric known to man. Fact. The sexy cuts are just a bonus.

Pursuit the Label

This London-based sustainable swimwear brand is anything but boring. Their suits hit the mark on being structurally interesting while being extremely flattering.

RAQ Swim

If you have a larger bust and struggle to find a supportive top, RAQ Swim's undetectable underwire top is a must.

Monday Swimwear

If you have a suit by Monday Swimwear, it's probably your go-to. Fits are always flattering, sexy and functional.

Peony Swim

Gingham is always a good idea as is sustainable swimwear (thank you, Peony). Make this your statement piece on your next vacation.

Medina Swimwear

Medina Swimwear is one of our favorite brands of 2021. They feature unique designs and textures without being over-the-top. They're a fashion girl's dream.

Matthew Bruch

Sleek and chic! You cannot go wrong with a Matthew Bruch piece. Bandeaus can be intimidating, but this one keeps its structure with boning along the sides.

Get your hands on netta’s limited edition suits for your next pool party. This one is great with a skirt for a day-to-night look.

Heavy Manners

Lisa Caprio is an Instagram phenomenon and a must follow. Get her ’s Heavy Manners suits while you can because styles sell out quickly.
