one-piece swimsuits

That fantastic little one-piece you got for Summer needn't be restricted to beach and pool use. One-piece swimsuits are super chic, and they make for a great fitted top, perfect fodder for Summer's flowy skirts and palazzo pants, and even the occasional miniskirt. We picked seven of our favorite one-piece suits, and styled them with minimal effort to show you how easy — and utterly chic — it is to turn your swimsuit into a fashionable bodysuit.

If you thought one-pieces were the thing you wear when you get too old for bikinis (never!), take a look at our ten best one-pieces. Some are retro and sexy, some sleek and modern, others sexy and bare. A one-piece suit is ultra sophisticated and a fashion-forward choice this Summer. The added bonus of these suits? Try them with a pair of gauzy pants for a casual dinner out, or a little flouncy skirt and espadrilles. These one-pieces are so fashionable they can do double-duty in your closet.

>> One-piece swimsuits are currently experiencing a new wave of interest thanks to designers like Rag & Bone, Mara Hoffman, and Zimmermann. Whether you're the type who prefers lounging by the pool or splashing in the ocean, we culled our favorite looks — ranging from retro styles to modern silhouettes — for you to rock this Summer.
