 Stella McCartney's metallic one-piece is a must for poolside glamour |
Followers of fashion will already have snapped up summer 2006's hottest swimwear looks, as presented on the international catwalks. Gold or silver is the hue of poolside glamour this season, with Stella McCartney's divine metallic one-piece topping many a wish-list. The shimmering, plunge-neck design is the perfect statement suit, and one sure to be spotted at chic destinations around the globe in coming months.
Sexy, cut-out one-pieces are a popular alternative to the bikini. Big in the Seventies, they are enjoying something of a renaissance thanks to fabulous new designs by Roberto Cavalli and Louis Vuitton. Dubbed "the cocktail dress of swimwear" by fashionista Vivia Ferragamo, they're the last word in glam as well as ultra flattering. The other big swimwear story this summer is Fifties retro, with both Michael Kors and Chanel incorporating the look - which is especially suitable for curvier figures - into their collections.
