On Trend ~ Bandeau Swimsuits

Having just returned to the grey, cold countenance of New York in December, it does seem a bit counter-intuitive that today I am circling in on a swimwear trend. But for many northerners, winter is getaway time and in fact, my home base of Cabo is just beginning its peak tourist season. I never truly grasped the impact that beachwear has on the retail market until I began living in Mexico for a good part of the year. Waterside communities where one moves seamlessly from the sand to the supermarket dictate the fashion. Everything is framed by sun, water and blue skies. The beach is an entire school of taste, style and for me, ideas. I would have liked to have photographed strangers in their swimwear, but I wasn’t up to any push back. So to begin our 2017 swim reveal, I will use what I have from in my archives to reflect what I have seen on the beach. First up: the bandeau neckline.
