Get Your Swim On



These swimsuits by Norma Kamali dare you to take them for a dip. These ultra feminine, sexy pieces will turn the heads of a few gorgeous sun-kissed men. So go ahead and lounge pool side while you sip a mojito and flip through the most recent issue of Vogue. All the while playing the part of a sophisticated bathing beauty.

  1. I love them all, but especially the first one. They all have such a great vintage, retro vibe.

  2. Style Redux 2- the first suit was the same one Miranda wore to Carrie's "honeymoon" in the SATC film. Only it was red.

  3. Great echoes of a more elegant era here. No athletes, thank god.

  4. Kamali does the BEST bathing suits! I'd wear the first one if I was skinny minny again. Had a Kamali bathing suit in early 80's. Wore it till it fell apart.
    Happy weekend,
    Catherine

  6. I have a suit just like the second one. I bought it because it looked very simple and conservative (it was for a family beach vacation) but, to my surprise, this simple suit got me more attention than any bikini I ever wore!

  10. Sarah Klassen- They are indeed flattering. Kamali definitely knows a woman's body. I can't decide which one I love most. I'll take 'em all!

  11. Frances- I so wish more women would wear stylish suits like these! A woman in a vintage suit would most certainly be a pleasant surprise.
