Fringe by L Space Swimwear

Although the first monokini was created back in the 1960s, the coveted swimsuit style has really come a long way.  In general, monokini swimsuits are defined as one-piece swimsuits with chic cut-out details.  Today, one-piece monokinis come in a number of different styles and designs—some will keep you cool and covered while others are oh-so seductively sexy.

For women who prefer one-pieces over bikinis but are tired of seeing the same old “grandma” styles, monokinis may be just what you need!  A number of monokini swimsuits feature substantial front coverage, yet still look like sexy two-pieces from the back.  Styles like the Fringe Stardust One-Piece by L Space and the Bacara Maillot from Vitamin A Swimwear have amazing front coverage.  For monokini swimsuits that have slightly less front coverage but still help hide the tummy area, styles like Saint Barth from OndadeMar or the Skinny Monokini by GUESS Swimwear are perfect for you!

Oasis Monokini by Aguaclara

But for the bikini-loving gals out there, some monokini swimsuits feature barely-there designs that are just as sexy (if not sexier) than your favorite bikinis!  Styles like Oasis by Aguaclara Swimwear or Chain Gang by GUESS Swimwear are two monokini swimsuits that serve as great alternatives to your favorite LBB.  For something flirty and girly, styles like the pink polka dot Pink Sands one-piece by OndadeMar are just too cute to handle!  Finally, a style like the Sueded one-piece by Sauvage Swimwear, which features a creamy nude color, will leave little up to the imagination.

Regardless of your comfort level or personal style, monokini swimsuits are a must-have in your warm weather wardrobe!  Whether you’re seeking a sexy new one-piece with great front coverage or a skimpy barely there style, monokini swimsuits will do wonders for your waistline and you’re sure to turn heads!
