Hey there, babes! It’s your girl Zara here, coming in hotter than a midday beach sesh with all the summer bikini trends you’ve been double-tapping on your feed. If you’ve been scrolling through Insta, TikTok, or even Pinterest and thinking, “Where did she get that?!”—I’ve gotchu. This one’s for my girls who want to be sun-kissed, snatched, and seriously slaying all summer long.
So, let’s break down the must-have trends, why they’re giving main character energy, and which Dekota Swim pieces will have you looking like you just walked off a tropical runway.
Trend #1: Vibrant Solids
Color is everything this season, and vibrant solid bikinis are taking over. Think citrusy yellows, tropical oranges, and dreamy lilacs. These bold shades make you pop against any backdrop—whether you're catching rays or snapping selfies by the water.
My pick? The Brooklyn Bikini in Citron. Babe, don’t mess with this zesty goddess. She’s made to stand out and hug your curves in all the right ways.
Style Tip: Pair her with gold hoops and a white sarong to keep the look chic and clean.

Trend #2: Muted Neutrals & Earth Tones
On the flip side, earthy neutrals are the choice for babes who love that effortless, minimalist vibe. From caramel browns to olive greens, these hues are pure, chill beach-girl aesthetic—and they’re totally trending in every summer bikini lineup right now.
My fave? The Calliope Bikini in Brown. She's giving soft, sultry, and sunset-ready. Bonus: these tones look fire with a summer tan.
Style Tip: Pair with linen pants and a straw tote. Thank me later.
Trend #3: Floral Prints Are Back, Baby
Florals? Groundbreaking? This summer? YES, absolutely. But we’re not talking about basic blooms. We’re talking dreamy, vintage-inspired prints with a modern twist.
Meet the Maya Bikini in Flower Field. She’s cute, she’s romantic, and she’s totally festival-ready. This is the kind of summer bikini that’s made for chasing sunsets and dancing barefoot in golden hour glow.
Style Tip: Add layered necklaces, platform slides, and a woven bucket hat.
Trend #4: The Timeless Black Two Piece
If you're a classic queen, don’t sleep on the black two piece bathing suit trend. Sleek, sculpting, and always in style, a black bikini is a forever vibe.
Obsessed with the Penelope Bikini in Black — she’s the little black dress of swimwear. Sophisticated but still spicy.
Style Tip: Go monochrome. Black shades, black slides, black beach bag. Effortless.

Trend #5: Matching the Mood with Pastels
Soft and sweet isn’t boring anymore. Pastels are blowing up and they’re not just for spring. Baby pinks, sky blues, soft purples — these shades are majorly trending in every summer bikini drop right now, and they’re giving ✨main character✨ at every beach club, boat party, and Euro vacay stop.
My go-to? The Lyra Bikini in Pink. She’s flirty, feminine, and made for a beachside gelato moment. Think: soft glam, golden hour glow, and Insta-perfect memories.
Style Tip: Add some pearl accessories and a messy bun. Trust, you’ll look like you stepped out of a rom-com.
Fabric That Feels Like a Sunset Kiss
Okay, let’s talk fabric — because feeling good is just as important as looking good. Dekota Swim doesn’t just serve looks. We’re talking double-lined, luxe textures that feel buttery soft and stay put, even when you’re wave-jumping or posing for the 'Gram.
And babe, while we’re not fully sustainable yet (transparency is cute), our suits are made to last beyond one season. That means less waste, fewer replacements, and pieces you’ll love for years, not weeks.
At Dekota Swim, we’re not perfect — but we’re intentional.
We focus on durability, timeless design, and smaller batch production to avoid overstock waste. Plus, our packaging is 100% plastic-free.

Q: What is a bikini model bikini?
A bikini model bikini is that show-stopper style that fits like a glove, turns heads, and gives total bombshell vibes. Think high-cut legs, curve-enhancing silhouettes, and confidence you can feel. It’s the kind of summer bikini you wear when you want all eyes on you. We’re talking Dekota Swim’s Scarlett Bikini in Silver — a total red carpet moment for the beach.
Q: What makes a sustainable bathing suit better?
Great question, babe. While the word sustainable gets thrown around a lot, what really matters is:
Longevity: Fewer replacements = less waste
Timelessness: Pieces you won’t toss after one trip
Intentional production: Like Dekota Swim’s smaller runs and plastic-free packaging
So even if it isn’t made from recycled fabric yet, a sustainable bathing suit is one you can re-wear proudly, season after season.
