No bikini or swimsuit: in 2023, the tankini will be the right choice for many when it comes to swimwear. What makes it special and which models are particularly popular.
Anyone who deals with the swimwear trends for 2023 will find a large selection: bikini, monokini, swimsuit or tankini. Two-tone, with cut-outs, back neckline, halterneck, high-cut and, and, and. But one of the models is currently particularly trendy: the tankini. The two-piece suit is enjoying greater popularity again. We explain why and have fashionable models ready.
Tankini: What is that actually?
A tankini is, so to speak, a mix of bathing suit and bikini: It consists of a top that is reminiscent of a tank top and (bikini) bottoms. Unlike the bikini, however, the top covers the stomach and usually extends to the pants. A tankini covers the body like a bathing suit, but fits a little looser because it consists of two parts – and thus leaves more room for combinations. Tankinis are available as halternecks, bandeau, with crossed straps and other variants. Also in many cuts, with all imaginable patterns or prints. There are also oversize tops or those that are a bit more flared and can hide potential problem areas. And even if nobody should be ashamed of his or her body: Some prefer it in loose swimwear – and then a tankini is just the thing.
Why is the tankini back in fashion?
The tankini opens up many different possible combinations: pants and top can be combined as you wish and can also be used as a bikini if necessary if the pants are mixed with a bikini top again. In addition, the tankini covers more of the body, which some women find more comfortable; as well as the possibility of being able to conceal supposed problem areas. It is more comfortable to wear than a one-piece suit because it is looser. So comfort, combination, choice and coverage are certainly plus points of the tankini.
Tankini: Three fashionable models
Two-tone model
A model that combines the advantages of the tankini, and comes with temples and two simpler colors. The spaghetti straps are adjustable to ensure a good fit. The gathered bandeau look of the cups also forms a nice contrast to the otherwise simple cut of the top. The top can also be combined with other pants or Bermuda shorts.
With print
That’s a little more noticeable therefore. With its airy fit, the top conceals small problem areas on the stomach and in the hip area, and thanks to the rubber underbust and the integrated soft cups, it also forms a voluminous décolleté. If you feel more comfortable with a loose top, this variant is just right and exudes an absolute summer feeling.
The classic
On the other hand, it is quite classic . Simple, but still an eye-catcher and also comfortable and with many possible combinations. The scalloped edge provides eye-catching details, as do the color contrasts on the hem and the slight neckline.
