One Piece Wonder

swimsuits

One-piece bathing suits have gotten a bad rap over the ages. They’re bulky, unflattering and frankly, they just don’t come in cute patterns. Then something happened – the one-piece got a makeover. Suddenly they’re more revealing without being too scantily clad, they’re more form fitting and we actually want to wear them. In all honesty, this is one trend we hope won’t disappear.

Anna Kosturova Goes Mini

It’s rare that the words “crochet” and “cool” are used in the same sentence, but designer Anna Kosturova proves otherwise. The Vancouver-based swimsuit Queen recently showcased her latest offerings at Mini Yaletown to a crowd of trendy local tastemakers. The space was transformed into a beach paradise, complete with tiki statues, makeshift cabanas and paper palm trees – and of course, the occasional Mini display. Show highlights included glam cutout suits with sequins, tassels and beadwork, and teeny bikinis in bold patterns and intricate detailing. Gotta love those neon crochet suits… perfect for a summer rooftop pool party!
