Halterneck Summer
How To Look The Best This Summer by Frank K Muller
If you want to look your best this summer on the beach learn you should find out about all the different styles and types of swimwear available.
One-piece swimsuits
The one piece swimsuit which is also known as Maillot in French is a form of swimwear that is manufactured in one piece and covers the hip area, the tummy and the breasts and usually has straps going over the shoulders. The one-piece swimsuit is normally very figure hugging and flattering for women and is often the preferred bathing suit for professional swimmers in the swimming pool.
Until bikinis were introduced most swimsuits were manufactured in one piece with various styles such as the halterneck swimsuit, and the bandeau swimsuit style. The standard one-piece swimsuit has two straps and a scooped neck or sometimes a plunge effect which shows more of the front. Other styles have a very deeply plunging back to show off just a little bit more.
Halter neck and boy short leg swimwear
Some one-piece swimsuits come with a halter neck where the straps tie around the neck and attach to the front of the swimsuit leaving more of the back exposed. This is a very sexy style that gives great support when needed. A style that has lately been reintroduced and which has a very 30's feel to it, is the boy leg one-piece which looks like a classic one-piece with a boy short type leg.
Bandeau swimwear
The Bandeau style of swimwear is very stylish and definitely very French. Some are strapless bathing suits with pleats and some have straps or halters for added support and security.
Bikini
The bikini, or bikini swimwear or two-piece swimsuit as it is sometimes called, is much more revealing than the one-piece swimsuit and is often preferred by young women. One piece covers the front while the other covers the behind and pelvic area.
The bikini was a form of swimwear which had its origins in Greco-Roman times. Floor mosaics from the period of the Emperor Diocletian (286-305 AD) in the Villa Romana del Casale, Sicily show women in bikini like clothes.
However, modern bikini swimwear as we now know it was invented by a French designer named Louis Rard in 1946. The bikini outraged many people when it first appeared on French beaches in 1947. Rard had named his style of swimwear after Bikini Atoll in the Pacific which was the site of the nuclear weapon test in mid 1946. Rard believed that the burst of excitement created by the bikini would be like a nuclear device, and he wasn't far wrong. After the introduction Rard's business became highly successful. In advertisements Rard kept the mystique of the bikini alive by claiming that a two-piece suit wasn't a true bikini 'unless it could be pulled through a wedding ring.'
The bikini is said to be the most popular women's beachwear worldwide. According to Olivier Saillard, the famous French fashion historian, who said it is due to 'the power of women, and not the power of fashion'.
The bikini thus became the official uniform, in 1994, of women's Olympic beach volleyball. It was a turning point for female sexuality as well as the athletic world and it gave a great increase in viewer numbers. One can only suspect that the majority were male!
Monokini
The monokini, or as it is sometimes known the topless swimsuit or unikini, is a form of swimwear that has only the bottom part of a bikini thereby leaving the chest exposed. This style of swimsuit is accredited to the American fashion designer Rudi Gernreich who, in 1964, brought it to popularity and is said to have first used the term, monokini.
Monokinis are only for the most daring of women and for those beaches where topless bathing is allowed.
Monokinis come in various styles with some having a fully covered behind and some having a g-string style at the back. In more recent years the monokini has been seen cut high to the waist with high cut legs.
Bikini tops
Bikini tops come in many styles including a halter-style neck which offers more coverage and support, the strapless bandeau style which is a rectangular strip of fabric covering the front which has the effect of reducing large breasts. Then there is the bikini top with cups similar to a push-up bra or the more traditional triangle cups that lift and shape the wearer.
Other variations of the bikini style are the camikini which comprises a camisole top and bikini bottom, the seekini which is a transparent bikini and also the tankini which consists of a tank top and bikini bottom.
Swimwear cover-ups
A swimsuit cover-up is a simple and very easy way to make yourself look glamorous and to stand out on the beach. These lovely additions to your swimwear wardrobe come in many forms such as sarongs, or a small triangle of fabric that ties at the hip or the more modest robes or delicate gown styles.
Nowadays many women who are going on holiday might prefer to take reversible swimwear with them to reduce their luggage and also to have a wide choice of wardrobe.
