Summer is right around the corner and we’re sure you’re already scouring the market for the perfect swimwear to wear to the beach. And while you probably already have a few tucked away in your closet, we suggest you add a classic one-piece swimsuit to your collection.
The great thing about the one-piece swimsuit is its versatility. From sleek monokinis to structured maillots that could easily double as body suits, it's definitely a must-have for any and every season. More and more, we’re seeing these swimsuit styles worn as everyday wear, easily transitioning this summer staple into a stylish OOTD. Wear it as a bodysuit and dress it up with a blazer, a skirt, and a pair of heels, or dress it down with a sarong and your favorite sneakers. You’ll definitely get more bang for your buck with this beach must-have.
Ahead, we’ve rounded up a slew of celebrity-approved fashion formulas featuring a one-piece swimsuit that you can definitely still wear on a casual day or for a night out in town.
1. One-Piece Swimsuit + Trousers
Create the perfect summer look by styling your one-piece with a pair of wide-legged trousers. Keep your accessories minimal with strappy sandals and a straw hat and you’re good to go.
2. One-Piece Swimsuit + Midi Skirt
Elevate your swimsuit game by playing with prints and textures. Unexpected cutouts and silhouettes allow for some pretty interesting and high-fashion looks. Take cues from Camille Co and Marie Lozano and turn heads by styling your one-piece with a printed asymmetric or ruffled skirt for that fashion-forward beach or city look.
3. One-Piece Swimsuit + Jeans
Kylie Verzosa keeps things simple at home by pairing her neutral-toned swimsuit with high-waisted denim jeans. Take this look out on the streets and throw on a pair of high heels and a cute purse then call it a day!
4. One-Piece Swimsuit + Printed Sarong + Sneakers
For this look, Martine Ho pairs her swimsuit with a fun, printed sarong and finishes off her colorful look with a pair of white sneakers. Consider this simple no-fuss formula for your beach trips!
5. One-Piece Swimsuit + Shorts
Styling your one-piece swimsuit with shorts is the quintessential beach look. With a clean, neutral suit as your base, all you need is a pair of nicely tailored cut-offs and sandals to complete your OOTD.
6. One-Piece Swimsuit + Blazer + Skirt

Less is definitely more with this look featuring Kelsey Merritt and fellow model Siobhan Moylan both choosing to style their one-piece swimsuits with a simple white button-down shirt for that easy, breezy summer look perfect for lounging at home or sailing at the sea.
10. One-Piece Swimsuit + Maxi Dress
This foolproof style combo looks effortlessly chic no matter what. For hot summer days, we suggest you pair your one-piece swimsuits with a flowy maxi dress. Take cues from Babba Rivera and Rosie Huntington-Whiteley and wear it as a cover up for when you’re out lounging by the beach.
