fabrics to enhance the silhouette and colors to catch the light. Each swimsuit becomes a powerful piece, capable of transforming a simple day by the pool into a truly stylish moment.
Midnight blue lurex: the elegant alternative to black swimwear
Black remains a must-have. For 2026, however, it's giving way to a more subtle shade: Midnight blue. This deep midnight blue is one of the season's most elegant swimwear colors.
A timeless color for a chic, timeless swimsuit
Designed to stand the test of time, Midnight captures light with finesse and natural sophistication. It's the safe bet for those looking for a chic swimsuit, timeless and easy to wear, season after season.
Khaki and cappuccino: the must-have colors for summer 2026
True elegance often lies in simplicity. In 2026, mineral hues are the obvious choice for summer swimwear trends.
Shades for every skin tone
Shiny khaki: organic and natural, it adapts to all skin tones and perfectly embodies the slow life spirit.
Cappuccino lurex: warm and enveloping, it warms the complexion and adds a touch of discreet luxury, ideal from morning to sunset.
Ribbed swimsuits: the chic, sculpting swimwear trend
This is the strong point of the 2026 collection: relief. Textured swimwear is a must-have for those seeking both style and comfort.
Optimum support without compromising comfort
Beyond their couture look, these materials offer a key advantage: they blur small imperfections, perfectly support the silhouette and provide a second-skin feel.
Opt for a look of effortless, natural elegance, from sunrise to sunset.
Green Gingham: the retro-chic swimwear trend makes a comeback
Vichy is reinvented in Green on our textured fabric: a sunny, sparkling touch that captures the carefree spirit of strolls on the beach. Modern Dolce Vita: the wind in your hair, the scent of Italian ice cream, the ray of sunshine that warms your skin. Assumed femininity, elegant and free.
Sowe designer Perrine's advice : "The Victoire one-piece in green gingham is my fashion nugget of the season! I love it worn on its own for an instant sun-kissed effect, or as a bodysuit under a slightly half-open white linen shirt for a casual chic look. With every ray of sunshine, it captures the spirit of summer."
Ocean Stripes: the graphic stripe star of summer 2026 swimwear
Forget the classic sailor stripe, too wise for your wanderlust. This season, stripes are boldly reinvented. The brilliant Ocean Stripes print is a strong signature of women's swimwear trends 2026.
Why this stripe enhances the figure and the complexion
Conceived as a vibrant, sunny palette, it acts as a veritable shot of vitamins. The graphic contrasts awaken the complexion's radiance, structure the silhouette and add an architectural dimension to the swimsuit.
A favorite of Marine, e-commerce and marketing manager: with an asymmetrical cut like the Carla model, Ocean Stripes is enough to create an assertive beach look.
The Garden line: swimwear designed to move in style
Because summer doesn't always rhyme with immobility, the collection also includes the Garden line. Swimwear designed for movement, perfect for those who alternate between swimming, beach walking and summer activities, always in style.
