Swimsuit styles are going to be bright and better than ever in 2022, and we can’t wait to share our favorite trending shapes and styles. At Maxine, we’ve got several pieces that hit the trendy mark that you’re going to be obsessed with. Get ready to find out what’s new in swimwear for the year ahead.

What’s Trending in Colors

As much as we love a classic black bathing suit, 2022 is going to be all about stepping into the fun colors while out in the sun. Don’t be afraid to try one of this year’s trending colors for your next swimsuit. This year’s hot colors include an airy pastel blue, a bright and spicy pink, and a vibrant dahlia-colored purple. 

Choosing a color can be hard if you like to have your wardrobe compliment your skin tone. Luckily, we’ve got a quick little color matching guide to give you some ideas of which colors will look great on you. You can either follow this guide to your match made in heaven or pick a color that you love regardless. We believe you’ll feel confident when you choose a fun new color that flatters you.

Choosing a Flattering Color

We’re sure you’ve seen color guides before, so we’ll make this quick. Follow this as strictly or as loosely as you’d like. Whichever color you choose for this year, it will look amazing as long as you feel confident wearing it. Let’s get into which colors look great on warm, cool, and neutral skin tones.

Warm Skin Tones

Warmer skin tones typically have a greenish or golden undertone and include olive skin tones. Those with warm skin tones will usually have dark blonde to dark brown hair colors.

If you have a warmer skin tone, these colors will look stunning on you:

  • Orange
  • Yellow
  • Gold
  • Brown
  • Deep red
  • Rich greens

Cool Skin Tones

Cool skin tones have a blue undertone and range from fair to dark. Your hair color will most likely be deep brown or blue-black, or light blonde.

Those who have cool skin tones look great wearing:

  • Cool blue
  • Charcoal
  • Deep violet
  • Pastel pink
  • Soft yellow
  • Cool green

Neutral Skin Tones

If you have a more neutral skin tone, you may find it hard to tell if your undertone is warm or cool. That’s your telltale sign that you’re either. Those who have a neutral skin tone may have ashy blonde or brown hair, or warmer hair.

If you have a neutral skin tone, these colors are great:

  • White
  • Peach
  • Dusty rose
  • Jade green
  • Placid blue

Maxine has swimsuit shapes to flatter every size and body type. You get to choose whichever style is your favorite, and whichever one makes you feel like a knockout.

It can be overwhelming to keep track of all the different types of styles and shapes, so we’re here to help. We’ve put together a list of just some of the trending shapes of the new year. Look through this list and decide which one you want to be seen in by the water this year.

  • Swimsuits with v-necks
  • Strapless swimsuits
  • Swimsuits with side ties
  • One-shoulder suits

Clearly, there’s something for everyone and the options are seemingly endless when it comes to swimsuit shapes. Don’t forget to take your measurements when picking out your swimsuit for the perfect and most flattering fit.

One Piece Swimwear Is Still Trending

We don’t think one-piece swimsuits will ever be out of style any time soon. It looks like one-piece suits are still around for 2022, and they’ve got some twists to mix things up. If you’ve been feeling a little bit bored with your current bathing suit, whether or not it’s a one-piece, then this post is for you.

There are so many different ways to make a one-piece stand out. For 2022, look for a one-piece that has flare with a deeper cut neckline, or a higher neckline if you’d like more coverage. Either neckline is trendy and suits whatever needs you have.

You can also switch things up with the cut size of the legs, and the shape of the bodice of a one-piece suit. Check out these different cuts and shapes that we love for the coming year.

  • Girl leg
  • Mio
  • Sarong
  • Faux tankini

Any of these choices are perfect if you want the coverage and ease of a one-piece, while still looking in style and fresh. If you’re wanting more pizazz and are looking for more ways to switch up your look, keep reading to learn about how to mix and match trending swimwear.

Swimwear Sets To Mix and Match

Mixing swimsuit sets is an incredible way to keep things different when you’re out in the sun, especially if you’re out a lot. If you’re someone who prefers to steer away from a bikini, there are plenty of other ways to wear a two-piece bathing suit. You don’t need to sacrifice style and confidence when shopping for swimwear sets!

The thing that we love the most about swimwear sets is the versatility. We adore the fact that you can switch up your bottoms and tops to make unique looks for whatever style you’re attracted to that day. Check out a few ways we love to pair two-piece sets.

  • Solid bottoms with a patterned top
  • Floral bottoms with solid top
  • Striped bottoms with solid top
  • Floral bottoms with a striped top
  • Solid swim skirt with a patterned top
  • Solid swim shorts with floral top

There are more ways than we can imagine when pairing two swimwear pieces together. Grab a couple of staple pieces, and you’ll be able to come up with plenty of trendy looks for your days in the sun.
