Summer is only a few weeks away and to get some swimwear inspiration, we’ve selected some of the most iconic swimsuits that we would love to see back on the beach.
Gone are the days when the bikini was banned from beaches for being ‘indecent’, this summer we’re likely to be turning to classic looks on the beach. That means, bright colours, bold prints, one-pieces and high-waisted bikini bottoms.
From the ’50s to the present, Hollywood celebrities and models have wowed crowds with their striking beach attire. Here we take a look at some of the best swimsuits from Bond girls to Baywatch lifesavers to beautiful supermodels.
