Bikinis are, by nature, quite revealing. Some designers have a little more sympathy for those of us without perfect figures, and one of these kind souls came up with the hipster bikini. A hipster bikini is a bit more conservative and provides a little more coverage to the hips – the bikini bottom is more brief shaped, with thicker sides than a standard bikini bottom, and it’s designed to rest as a wide band around the hips.
Some hipster bikinis take the band shape a bit further, so the bottom appears to be nothing more than a band of fabric around the hips, these bikini bottoms are sometimes paired with a bandeau-style top, the resulting suit is known as a bandini. Another variant on the hipster is the skirted bikini, or skirtini, which is popular with ladies who are self-conscious about their bum or hips. Also, there are hipster bikinis have slightly extended legs, like shorts – some people call these bikini bottoms boyshorts or refer to the suit as a shortini.
Hipster bikinis are popular because they’re generally less revealing than traditional triangle or string bikinis. Many of the leading designers focus on the hipster shape because it is so popular, and also because it’s a versatile bikini style. Hipster bikinis by top designers include the Hipster Skirt and Belter Hipster by La Blanca, Burberry’s belted bikini, Michael Kors Studded bikini and the Solid Hipster bikini from Lauren by Ralph Lauren.
Buying a hipster bikini online is easy and there are plenty of suits to choose from – even some of the leading high street chains, like Marks and Spencer, have launched hipster bikinis for the coming season. As with any online purchase, find a reputable vendor with a clear return policy before buying your hipster bikini online – that way you know the merchandise you receive is genuine and have the peace of mind that goes with being able to exchange the suit if you need to.
