Scoops, Asymmetry and Cutouts
"We’re really loving scoops this season, and they come in two of our favorite trends: white binding and lace up. Our longline bikini top styles feel like a cute little cami in a bikini, and the binding details add a white hot pop to make it extra special. Lace up is also everywhere this season, and I’m really gravitating toward the minimal design on our wide strap scoop styles with cool lace-up details. In one pieces, we’re obsessed with asymmetrical fits and cutouts that sneak a two piece look into a one piece fit." — Erin Rittling, Senior Manager of Styling at Aerie
