The perfect beachwear trend 2015 can be found through fashion editorials from Seventies to today. Inexhaustible source of inspiration, it will be difficult to recognize a 2015 swimwear trend to a 1979 one. Probably at the end of the Seventies it was unlikely to think of wearing skimpy bikinis and petit shorts, but today we can not avoid the vintage touch and slightly look back. Beachwear trend 2015 with a high waist, intriguing monopezzi bustier, crochet bikini and wide brimmed hats make us feel more contemporary than ever.
Beachwear trend 2015, the sophisticateway
Now it’s all about style. It does not matter to discover “great pieces” of skin, the key word is sophisticated, an escape sophisticated even at the beach, which comes in many ways.
The first is the one-piece swimsuit. Seen on almost every catwalk for Summer beachwear trend 2015, it is extremely chic in the retro version – as the one, inspired by the cinema by Joseph Altuzarra.
Very lady – like of the 50’s, in the black and white version with a white chiffon shirt, designed for a sunny day on a wooden speedboat by Riva. Black, minimal, tied behind the neck – almost like a collar with CC initial – destination is French Riviera beach with striped umbrellas, in the Chanel one.
Always black, but to wear from day to night, like a body that becomes a long, elegant dress with a silk skirt and a pair of decollete. Inspired by the green, romantic and almost coy, in the version of Anthropologie. Striped jersey for Adriana Cernanova, imagined with a short trench in British style and an allure Old England. In the exotic print version, with a big banana leaf, on white and V-neck. Girly, as a body of the 80s.

The two-pieces are changing or go back?
The beachwear not beachwear is not a pun or a special fabric, but the characteristic of looking like a complete. And the beachwear trend 2015 seems not to be able to do without. A crop top to wear even at sunset adding a pair of shorts, a mini skirt or a long skirt. Pure and essential in the crepe version proposed by Vogue in 1969. Designed for a hippie mood with five-pocket trousers and maxi bow, in the version of Barbara Fialho for Marie Claire. Yellow and floral, with coordinated cover, for Laetizia Casta in 1996.

Changing the rules, look at your closet with different eyes
Everything else remains a game and do not forget to experiment, try, combine and change. An elegant dress you don’t wear anymore, could assume a new meaning when you walk barefoot on the beach. A simple tunic that seems too short and pale for the city, has an other value enriched by salt. The black and white, lace and cotton, denim with light bian and the t–shirt in jersey. Anything can serve in the next – hopefully long – month of Summer. And if you are lucky enough, ask someone to capture your look like mermaids out of the water, ready to stay alive.
