Swimwear: The Umbrella Term

Swimwear is the umbrella term for everything worn for swimming and sun: bikinis, one-pieces, monokinis, tankinis, swim dresses, rash guards and cover-ups. “Swimsuit” and “bathing suit” mean the same family — bikini is the two-piece member of it.

This collection is the full Sunnybikinis range under that umbrella: bikini sets and separates, one-pieces, monokinis, tankinis, swim dresses and cover-ups in solids, prints and textured fabrics. Coverage and sizing vary by style, so each listing carries its own details.

Swimwear = the whole family. Bikinis, one-pieces and everything between are members of it.

The Main Types of Swimwear

When you’re shopping the umbrella, the types break down like this:

• Bikinis — two-piece sets and separates, in every top and bottom combination
• One-pieces — full-body swimsuits from sporty to strappy
• Monokinis — one-pieces with cutouts that read as two pieces
• Tankinis — two-piece convenience with a longer top
• Swim dresses and cover-ups — pool-to-restaurant pieces

Prices run from about $17 to $47 across the collection, and sizes from XS to XL with a few one-size pieces.

Start with the type — two-piece, one-piece or layered — then narrow from there.

Choosing Swimwear by Occasion

The best starting question is the occasion, because the occasion decides the type:

• Beach and resort days: bikini sets or one-pieces in the silhouette you like
• Pool time and pool parties: minimal styles and bold colors
• Active water: secure fits — snug bands, ties and sporty cuts
• Cruise and vacation: a rotation of suits plus a cover-up for evenings
• Sunbathing and tanning: lower-coverage styles for fewer tan lines

Occasion first, then type, then coverage — that order narrows the range fast.

Let the trip decide the swimwear, not the other way around.

Solids, Prints and Fabrics

The third variable is the fabric, and this collection runs through:

• Solids — ribbed, ruched, crinkled and metallic textures
• Prints — floral, tie-dye, animal and polka-dot patterns
• Mesh and sheer — for the transparent end of the spectrum
• Details — chains, beads, cutouts, lace and tie-ropes

Fabric changes the look more than anything except the cut — pick it last.

Silhouette sets the line, fabric sets the look.
