Monokini Swimsuits - The Choice For Fashionistas Around The World!

The monokini is fashion-forward swimsuit that entered the swimsuit market only a couple of years ago. It is fast becoming the go-to choice for many fashionistas around the world. They can be referred to as monokini swimsuits, monokini one-piece, monokini bathing suits or trikinis. Regardless of what you call them, these very sexy numbers are the picture of summer loving. They are hitting full stride this summer season as they have been seen on celebrities such as Britney Spears, Jessica Alba and Giselle Bundchen.

This style of swimsuit is very versatile, so you are sure to be able to find one to fit your summer needs. They can be as revealing or as modest as you want them to be. They are available as halter, bandeau, ring top and bottom, v-neck, or triangle.

The monokini is a modern take on the original design by an Austrian-American fashion designer named Rudi Gernreich. The monokini was designed in 1964 and was a bit more revealing the current monokini; the original version exposed the breasts. It was also referred to as a unikini. While the monokini of today is less revealing, it still oozes sex appeal as it reveals the never ending curves of a woman’s body.

Swimsuit designers love to incorporate their own personal style into their monokini concoctions with details such as rings and closures, embroidered tops, metallic fabrics, and colorful designs. A unique take on the monokini is Aguaclara's Selva swimsuit. It has a distinct black and white zebra print with a deep asymmetrical cut-out that goes across the stomach. This suit has a bandeau top with a wooden ring at the hip.

Another choice that is sure to draw stares is Cia Maritima's Pisces Monokini. This suit has a reptile print with different colors of green. The top has full coverage and it ties around the neck. The top of the bottoms fold over in the front and back and is adorned with a wide tie on the hip.

One of the more classic monokini swimsuits is the Audrina monokini by L Space. This suit has a plunging neckline with gold adjustable details on the straps. It ties around the neck and has cinching on the back of the bottoms.

If you like the look of the monkini but want a little less skin, then you should try Jets by Jessika Allen’s Denim Monokini. This suit has plenty of sex appeal with a lot less skin than the other monokinis. Its molded push-up cups and cut-outs on the side have an orange and blue fabric that contrast with the denim bodice. This suit ties at the neck and the back for plenty of support.

No matter what you are looking for, you are sure to be able to find just the right monokini to fit your pool or beach needs this summer. Be sure to take good care of it as this trend does not seem to be going anywhere; it just seems to be getting better and better.

Monokini swimsuits are a better fit for women with proportionate body shapes such as an hour glass shaped figure or women with medium-to-long torsos. The reason this is so is because monokinis are like one-piece swimsuits because they come in one size. This being the case, women with a larger top and a petite bottom cannot get a monokini with a large top and small bottom or vice versa. If you end up with one that does not fit correctly in the bottom or top, then you will have a saggy mess on your hands. This problem can also lead to excess fabric in the stomach area and no woman wants that.

With this in mind, be sure that you try your monokini of choice on before making your purchase. They are supposed to fit snug throughout the suit. Also to note, these suits are not for the active female; they are more for eye candy than anything else. If you need a suit for an active beach or pool event, you may want to look to the one-piece.

Regardless of why you need your monokini this swimsuit season, be certain that you choose wisely as it will be with you in the coming summer months.
