2. Chocolate browns
Brown has been the it-colour for a while now, and it’s definitely not going anywhere.
Chocolate brown swimwear is a chic, timeless choice that has virtually no downsides: it’s elegant, super flattering on a wide range of skin tones, elevated, and it adds a contemporary feel to classic silhouettes.
From deep browns to soft mochas, brown shades are a sleek and effortless choice for swimwear this summer.
