FASHION
Swimwear trends make a splash PROCRASTINATING DOESN’T MAKE IT ANY EASIER. Pull back your shoulders, stand up straight and head into the dressing room. It’s time to try on swimwear. If it’s any consolation, this summer’s styles may make the experience a little easier. These suits are pretty tempting and flattering to most body shapes. Choose from nautical stripes in both one and twopiece styles. Crochet and lace add coverage and interest. High-waisted bottoms give a glamorous nod to the past. Neons grab attention. Cut-outs are bold and sexy. Other trends include bustier tops, ruffles, macramé, fringe, art-inspired prints, classic black and white and florals. So, take the plunge. The water’s fine. — Linda Miller Above: Antonio Melani high-waisted two-piece, available at Dillard’s. Left: OndadeMar animal print bikini with cover up, available at Liberte.
