Swimwear from LingaDore
You may have noticed that this season has been a busy time for me. Every brand imaginable has come knocking on our door and we seem to have said “yes” to all of them. One brand in particular has to be mentioned, and judging by the tastes of my readers, I’m sure you will love it as much as us. LingaDore first caught our eye a few months ago when we met up with an agent for another brand, and just as you might expect, we asked if she had anything new for us. She showed us what LingaDore had to offer and when I saw their designs, I knew it would be with us in no time.
LingaDore is still quite a young brand but it has already launched itself to the top of the swimwear scene. Founded in 2005 in the Netherlands and becoming quickly popular in Europe, you’ll start hearing LingaDore’s name mentioned amongst the best brands in the business. In the UK, it’s best known for its high quality underwear and nightwear, but you can take it from me that their swimwear is no different. UK Beachwear has chosen four of LingaDore’s designs for the summer months, and all of them are up-to-the-minute and more.
Here at UK Beachwear, sunbathing is a hot topic (no pun intended) and we are always eager to recommend swimwear that’s perfect for soaking up some rays. LingaDore have managed to create the perfect balance of coverage and exposure, with most of their briefs deep and tastefully designed, but still revealing enough for working on the tan.
LingaDore Antiqua Bikini is my personal favourite, and of course it comes in my favourite colour, black. This tasteful bikini is finished off perfectly with a small gold attachment on the shoulders and brief. I think that swimwear like this is always a pleasure to wear and designs like these are timeless.
LingaDore Cabana is a new kind of bikini I’ve been seeing more and more of recently and I’m very impressed with LingaDore’s take on this growing trend. Deep briefs paired with more revealing cups is something a lot of desingers are producing. The underwired bra and the halter neck makes for great shaping and keeps the material at a minimum, great news for sunbathers. This trend is fast growing and my opinion, its just going to get more popular.
Club Tropicana. The pattern and colour scheme is bold, to say the least, and I love it. You’ll notice a gingham trim has been added to the bikini, something I’ve not seen before in swimwear. Patterns like these break up the colours and makes for a perfect contrast, something I’ve mentioned in another post. This new way of using colours and patterns is really becoming popular and a well selected contrast, like floral and gingham, is one of the biggest spring trends.
One more item to mention this season, Dominicana. Although I’ve already mentioned how popular the deeper brief is becoming, LingaDore have been good to its customers and included a sunbather’s favourite in their collection. Dominicana is a string bikini with triangle cups, the classic choice for getting the best out of the summer sun. Red is timeless, and it would be great to see more of it on the beach, as it always looks fantastic.
Well, this is all of the swimwear from LingaDore we have for at the minute, but I’ll be keeping an eye on their designs over the next few months. It looks like you’ll be spoiled for choice this summer, and I can’t wait to see what winter has in store for us.
