10 Swim Suits To Avoid In 2012

Mercedes Benz Miami Swim Week wrapped up on July 18th.  Looking back at the shows, I noticed there were a handful of swim suits to avoid (at all costs). Below you’ll find the top ten bathing suits to pass on for Summer 2012.

image of Crystal Swim Suit Norma Kamali Swimwear MBFW Miami Swim 2012Crystals an rouching probably wouldn’t hold up well in chlorinated water. Actually they probably wouldn’t hold up well in the ocean either. Swimsuit by Norma Kamali.

image of Leather Swim Suit Dolores Cortes MBFW Miami Swim 2012Black leather swim suit by Dolores Cortes. similar to the crochet swim suit by the same designer above, this would leave terrible tan lines. It’s also be really stick and sweaty at the beach.

image of Lingerie swim suit Beach Bunny Swimwear MBFW Miami Swim 2012This satin and lace lingerie-like swim suit is part of the Beach Bunny Swimwear collection. Everything about this suit is ridiculous down to the rhinestone details.

image of Wedding Swimsuit Beach Bunny SwimwearWeddings have been on my mind lately, to this wedding inspired bathing suit by Beach Bunny Swimwear really caught my attention. Haha – it’d be perfect for a beach wedding. I’m not sure I’d want to know a girl who would think wearing a suit to her wedding would be a good idea though.

H&M Swimwear 2010 Ad Campaign

H&M’s swimwear 2010 ad campaign features supermodels Daria Werbowy, Julia Stegner, Erin Wasson, Sasha Pivovarova and Lara Stone (they all look fabulous here). The new swimwear collection will be launching this month, shot by photographer Patrick Demarchelier at St. Barts in the Caribbean. The swimwear collection mixes safari with ethnic detailing and prints. I totally dig the mismatch trend thats carrying over from last season.

In video’s that launched with the ad campaign, all five models talked about their best beach memories (smart marketing move by H&M). Check out the videos on hm.com.
