Light Blue Swimwear

Light blue covers a spectrum from pale sky blue to azure and aquamarine with a greenish undertone. Cool, light shades create more contrast against tanned skin but may blend into very fair skin, where a contrasting trim, piping or print can help define the colour. Rich azure stands out even before tanning. One important detail is that wet fabric becomes one or two shades darker, so a light blue swimsuit may look closer to deep blue in the water. For a deeper shade, see the deep blue swimsuits; for the lightest option, explore the white styles.

Fabric: why density matters more than colour

Most styles are made from biflex, an elastic fabric that stretches in two directions, retains its shape after getting wet and dries quickly. Fabric density is especially important for light shades: material weighing at least 200 g/m² remains opaque both in sunlight and when wet. The catalogue also includes textured knitted fabric with Lurex. It is less dense and is intended for photoshoots and beach parties rather than active swimming. Light blue pigment is sensitive to chlorine and UV exposure, so choose dense biflex for the pool and rinse the swimsuit after every session.

Light blue swimsuit styles

• One-piece swimsuits — closed or open tops, draping, mesh inserts and side cut-outs. They stay securely in place around the waist and are comfortable for swimming.
• Two-piece swimsuits — tops and bottoms can be selected separately, including in different sizes. Top styles include bandeau, tie-neck halter, one-shoulder and triangle designs.
• Bikinis — plain or printed bottoms with a low or mid rise.
• Tankinis and swimdresses — styles that provide more coverage for those who do not wear bikinis.

Some styles come without moulded cups, as specified in the product description. For additional bust support, choose an underwired top or a style with reinforced lining. Other colours and designs are available in the main women’s swimwear section.

How to choose for your body shape

Wide straps and tops with reinforced lining provide support for a fuller bust. Ruffles, flounces and textured knitwear can add visual dimension to a smaller bust. One-piece styles with side cut-outs and two-piece swimsuits with high-rise bottoms highlight the waist. A high rise also visually lengthens the legs and gently smooths the stomach area. Pale blue can visually add volume, so on curvier figures it is often used for the top, with bottoms chosen one shade darker.

“Light blue is less forgiving than black: seams and transparency are more noticeable. Check the density of the fabric and the lining — it should cover the entire cup, not only the area beneath the bust. A simple test is to stretch the fabric over your palm in daylight. If the skin is visible, it will be even more noticeable when the fabric is wet.”

What to wear with it

Light blue pairs well with white, ivory, sand and denim, as well as gold-tone hardware. A complete beach outfit can be built around a swimsuit, a beach tunic or pareo, a straw bag, sunglasses and flat sandals. Ready-made combinations are available in the summer looks.

Care and fit

Hand-wash in cool water without bleach, do not wring, and dry flat away from direct sunlight and radiators. This helps biflex retain its elasticity and colour for longer. When in doubt about the fit, a manager can provide the measurements of a specific style before payment, and you can order two neighbouring sizes to try on.
