subject: Childrens Swimsuits For This Summer [print this page] The approaching summer season has put the designers into a tizzy of inspiration. They seem desperate to throw off the dreary mantles of winter and are looking to the past to update the looks of 2010. The fashion forward child of today will want to take these design cues in order to update their look for the new season.
Its all about color. With the unfortunate revival of 80s aesthetics, has come a renewed interest in brightly bold neon colors. Thankfully, the colors are a wee bit more tolerable this time around and are being paired with less abrasive tones, rather than in a solitary seizure inducing block. Interestingly, these high-beam colors have made their way into some of the more retro 50s prints. This new combination of color and print keeps the look fresh and modern and updates cute elements such as appliqu and gingham accents. Boys swimwear is being recharged with more colors instead of the usual white, blue and black offerings. Pumpkin orange, Kelly green and sunflower yellow are illuminating more placid plaid prints and letting the guys experiment a bit more with their look.
Both boys and girls suits are sporting large retro plaid and floral prints. Combining the two in the same outfit is easily achieved by allowing one to dominate the visual field, with the other acting as a detail in a complimentary color scheme. Girls swimsuits are featuring bold graphics in sparing quantities and allowing the cut to define the style.
Following in the retro theme, you will find that the girls swimwear will feature design nods to the past in the form of Keyhole openings at the sides, one piece suits with a boy-shorts cut, boxier straps and cuts of swimwear from the 30s and 40s. Cutesy ruffles, bows and ribbons are popping up everywhere giving the suits a look of decadent luxury.
There are more accessories available such as skirts, shorts, wraps and dresses and hats to allow for a customized look. Boys swim shorts are being offered in board short length with a matching short or long sleeved swim shirt and retro plaid fedora for dapper cool guy flare. The materials are constructed to be sun protective with SPF ratings shown on the labels. Thus allowing parents to limit the amount of chemicals they need to place on their children.
