What is Luxury Swimwear?

The term luxury may seem like it’s tossed around often. From wristwatches to perfume, adding this word seems to imply it’s better than their competition in some way—but what exactly does it mean?

When you tack the word luxury before anything, you can often assume that it’s somewhat of an investment in quality.

What makes a product high-quality, however, depends on the product itself. Luxury spirits may gain their title from their aging process, whereas esteemed hair products may come down to the quality of their ingredients.

So, what makes a swimsuit luxurious, you may ask? We’ve got the answer:

• Material – Luxury bathing suit consist of quality fabric that’s comfortable, durable, and reliable. For a swimsuit, you also want material that’s breathable and stretchable. High-quality synthetic fabric achieves these feats without running the risk of over-stretching and sagging.¹ Materials like Brazilian Lycra or nylon make exceptional choices for luxurious swimwear.

• Appearance – Quality swimsuits offer unique and gorgeous designs to show off your beach body. Luxury swimsuit designers will often try to break the mold of conventional swimwear construction. As a result, you can enjoy a one-of-a-kind swimsuit you can’t get anywhere else.

• Fit – While you can find swimsuits in many different designs, they’re not always size-inclusive. Luxury swimsuits will aim to flatter all body types, ensuring a snug, flattering fit without sacrificing comfort.

A cute and durable swimsuit can feel hard to come across—but with some tips on where to find them, you’ll be sure to discover the swimwear of your dreams. So grab yourself a luxury swimsuit and feel the confidence that stems from a sound selection.
