It is possible to find these passionate pieces in the brand’s online store and in two symbolic boutiques located in London, where there is a unique and stunning shopping experience. There are also 500 retailers in 50 countries.
Averie
This brand is quite new to the market, but it quickly stole our hearts. It all started with the creation of sleepwear, at the beginning of 2020, a year in which we spent a lot of time at home. Thus, a group of talented women developed a brand of luxurious pajamas that could be used in everyday life at home, replacing the tracksuits. Currently, the brand has a very wide product portfolio, which includes wonderful bikinis and bathing suits.
“Averie” means “being magical”, a characteristic that is present in the various pieces of the brand. For example, the design of swimwear, namely the printed ones, conveys this magic and, in a way, an association with nature.
Andrea Iyamah
Andrea Iyamah is a Nigerian designer who created her own clothing brand. All pieces are inspired by nature, which is visible in their design. Above all, African ethnic cultures are an essential element of the creations. There is a contemporary femininity, which is visible through the boldest colors.
One of the brand’s core missions is to convey a message of adventure and confidence to the women who wear the clothes.
Sommer Swim
Sommer Swim is distinguished by its elegant minimalism. On the surface, the pieces look very simple, but they are all sources of sensuality. The brand assumes itself, without prejudice, as simplistic, but very daring, creating trends instead of following them. In fact, it’s aimed at women of the new age, with open minds, who aren’t afraid to wear what they like! All fabrics are smooth and leave a lot of skin showing. And their collection is filled with 2022 swimwear trends.
Wave Babe Swimwear
Style and comfort are the words that define Wave Babe Swimwear. The designed collections are timeless, using natural colors that we don’t usually see. The fabrics are carefully selected to last many summers, so they are thicker and of great quality. This year’s collection is absolutely irresistible and promises to be talked about on Instagram.
Haight
Haight’s creations are far from conventional. Thus, the raw materials create different volumes and textures. There is a certain freedom that is conveyed by beachwear. The finishes have characteristics to adapt to all bodies.
Jade Swim
Jade Swim qualifies for its great simplicity, without being basic. There is a classic and elegant feel to most pieces. Certainly, the pieces can be used on a wide variety of occasions. In fact, you can have a bathing suit and a top for a night out at the same time, if you combine it with another piece! We love this variety of looks that you can create with just one piece because it is so versatile. So of course we had to have it on our list of the best swimsuit brands for 2022!

In recent months Juillet Swimwear has been talked about a lot, especially by The Giana Top In Surrey, which has been mentioned in some magazines and on social media.

Discover 5 Top Swimwear Trends for 2022
1. Swimwear as Ready-to-Wear
We love pieces that are versatile. The truth is that with this type of bikini, in a few minutes, and with the combination of a few pieces, you will be ready to rock. In other words, you can wear the same piece to the beach and then combine it with high-waisted pants, for example, and you’re ready to go out to dinner.
2. All Tied Up
This trend had already started in 2021, however this year it will return in force. As the wires are adjustable, it looks good on any body type and makes a woman more comfortable. In addition to being very stylish, it is very sexy!
3. Belted Swim
Marking the waist with a belted swimsuit is a great idea. It helps to flatter your curves and enhance your waist. In addition, it is super elegant and feminine.
4. Cross Halter Bikini Top
Until now it was not very common to see this type of bikini top, but this year this model seems to be a big trend. It is perfect for women with smaller breasts.
5. Cut It Out
This is a trend in pretty much every garment this year, but this summer it will get even more popular and is definitely one of the top swimwear trends for 2022. The look features a more traditional and classic silhouette.
