It may be the merry and bright holiday season, but unless you live in SoCal or Florida, the weather outside is probably rather frightful. That's why I couldn't help but feel gleeful to spend my morning at the Land's End 2015 Swim Preview, transported from gloomy city streets in December to a sunny and light seashore getaway in June. The mission, which I certainly chose to accept: Find the swimwear bound to be a hit this coming spring and summer. And we made a special point to check out the latest Land's End collection, because they have a rep for creating on-trend styles that are fashionable, functional, and fit real women.
Not only do they carry a bevy of sizes (regular, plus, petite, TONS of customized bra cups), but they actually fit their swimwear on living, breathing human beings -- not mannequins! And they're known for suits of varying levels of modesty and for different body types -- some with shaping technology, some with skirts, others with bikini tops, you name it!
So, of course, we were curious what they're thinking the next hot style for moms would be! Turns out, we weren't at all disappointed!
The biggest discovery by far had to be one absolutely stunning bathing suit -- destined to be a major hit with all women, especially moms! Feast your eyes, ladies.
The blouson style of the tankini looks ultra-flattering and airy -- not to mention that it's the go-to look for so many moms who are a bit self-concious about their "mummy tummy." And the fuschia! Gorgeous! All bet's on this suit becoming THE one to have this coming year.
That said, maybe one of their dresskinis, adjustable tankinis, or even swim leggings are more your speed. Check out the other styles we spied at the event (some that are already available to purchase!) below, then tell us: Which of these styles could you see yourself in next year?
