Prep for Spring with Sexy Swimsuits

New York City has had an extremely tough winter this year, which makes it a perfect time to start thinking about spring and summer. And what better way to get into the spirit than to start shopping for swimsuits? One particular collection I’ve been obsessed with is Kate Swim.

Kate Swim has been providing women with fashionable, original and fun customizable swimsuits since 2007. Kathleen Bruening, founder and designer of Kate Swim is not a newcomer to swimwear design. She began designing when she was just nine years old and by 14, she was creating formal and costume wear. This hobby quickly became a passion and two years later she sharpened her career focus and began attending Upcountry Sewing School in Maui, Hawaii. Kate Swim was founded in 2007. The following year, she completed her first collection with 25 different suit styles. The collection that followed in 2009 and 2010 featured 28 additional new suits.

The perfect fit seems to be the biggest challenge when shopping for swimwear; I know that’s my biggest challenge. What if you’re smaller on top and wider in the hips or vice versa? When Kathleen created her customized suits, those challenges that women faced were at the top of her priorities.

I’m a sucker for black, so my favorite collection from Kate Swim is the Alohilani Collection. The elegant yet sexy collection has two-pieces and full suits that cater to many body types. There’s beautiful detailing and embellishments. But not to worry, there’s the Kapa Kala Collection if color is what you crave. This colorful collection features many styles of swimwear and all types of coverage including bikinis, monokinis and one pieces. There are options for everyone, with tops like the triangle, halter or bandeau and bottoms including full side, tie side, multiple straps and more! With designs featuring incredible details like ruffles, mesh, fringe, beading, knotting, lacing, crystals, and studs.

If Kate Swim sounds familiar to you, that’s not a surprise. The collection has been sought after by the fashion show circuit and has even been featured in the 2012 and 2013 Sports Illustrated Swimsuit Issues. Kate Swim also has a Sports Illustrated Swimwear Collection that was inspired by the exotic locations the models traveled to, and the personality those locales inhabit.

Spring and summer are on the way, New Yorkers. Shopping for new swimwear is the perfect way to get ready for it. For more information on Kate Swim, please visit their website at www.kateswim.com.
