Because the health crisis is limiting our travel this summer, the crochet bikini is the ideal option to infuse an air of bohemian that typically comes with travel. Singer Dua Lipa recently made some buzz with this Instagram pic featuring a tiny crochet bikini in an 80s Care Bears pattern. Designed by Italian brand GCDS as part of a limited edition set, this Care Bears crochet bikini is also available in blue and green. While not practical for water, it can guarantee you a viral post on the 'gram.

The neon swimsuit proves to be the perfect Instagram piece with its eye-catching hues. A big hit this summer, taking inspiration from looks of Hailey Baldwin, Kylie Jenner and Megan TheeStallion that went viral within hours. A top trend this year, it brings in nostalgic for the 80s but still terrifically in tune for 2020.

An unmissable icon of the French Riviera, '70s film starlet Brigitte Bardot continues to inspire fashion. This season, the beloved Parisian designer Yasmine Eslami has teamed up with La Redoute for a capsule collection that smells of the South. "I have a particular attraction for the 70s, a period which inspires me and which for me embodies joy, freedom and color! For this capsule, I was largely inspired by the signature wrap-over shape of my very first swim line in 2015 " explains the designer.
