Is it fashionable to wear a swimsuit as a top?

Yes, it's so fashionable to wear a swimsuit as a top. Wearing swimsuits as tops is not only practical, it's become a stylish statement in both summer fashion and festival wardrobes. As the boundaries between swimwear, shapewear and ready-to-wear become more fluid, the swimsuit is gaining ground as a versatile wardrobe staple - even far away from the beach.

From beach to festival - a real summer trend

Especially at summer festivals and in holiday resorts, we see more and more people styling their swimsuits with everything from loose pants and denim shorts to skirts and blazers. It gives a relaxed but put-together look that can be both sexy and comfortable, and not least functional if you're heading to the beach later in the day.

Swimsuits also have the advantage of staying put. You don't need to adjust or fix them - perfect for long days in the sun or late nights of dancing and drinks. In addition, the swimsuits from MAYAS have a built-in bra system, which means you don't have to wear a bra underneath.

Shaping swimsuits vs. regular tops

Shaping swimsuits, like those from MAYAS, have several advantages: they are designed to shape the body and give a flattering, uniform silhouette. This means that they often fit better than regular tops and do not wrinkle, fold or ride up. They provide support and make many people feel more confident - whether they are styled for everyday wear or a party.

Swimsuits with a deep back or replaceable pads in particular can be good alternatives to classic bodystockings - but with the added advantage that they can also withstand water.

The most versatile colors and models

When it comes to using swimsuits as tops, it's all about choosing models and colors that fit in with the rest of your wardrobe.

Colors :

Black is always a safe choice - elegant, classic and easy to style up or down.
Nude and earth tones are perfect for a natural and subdued look.
White gives a fresh and summery look - especially great for tanned skin.
Deep blue, burgundy or olive green also work well as base colors that can be used year-round.

Models :

A swimsuit with a zipper gives a more sporty and edgy look. A good example from MAYAS could be the Valencia shaping swimsuit .
Models with high hip cuts and low backs create visual length and a sophisticated look that can easily be worn with high-waisted pants or skirts. A good example from MAYAS could be the Grace shaping swimsuit .
Thin, adjustable straps and a shapewear effect make the swimsuit particularly suitable as a top, as it shapes the body without feeling heavy or “too much”. A good example from MAYAS could be the Celestia shaping swimsuit or the Harmony shaping swimsuit .

Conclusion

The swimsuit is no longer just reserved for the beach - it is a fashion item in itself. And with shaping swimsuits with a built-in bra system, you get a top that supports, shapes and looks good in every context, while also eliminating the need to wear a bra. So yes - it is not just fashionable to use a swimsuit as a top. It is a stylish shortcut to a more confident and versatile summer look.
