Get Crinkled
The textured appeal of this trend might be subtle, but it's just enough to set your suit apart from anything else in your summer closet. The smocked-like finish that has been big for both pre and post-Covid wardrobes has officially made its way into our bathing suit collections, from bikinis to one-pieces and everything in between.
