Victoria’s Secret Archives Swim
You asked, we listened: VS Archives Swim is BACK. A new, limited-edition swimwear capsule, full of our most glamorous and luxe swimsuits. We took the best parts of our original Y2K designs to bring retro designs into the modern age.
Vintage-Inspired Bikinis
Our iconic, vintage-inspired bikinis are not just fashion-forward but also comfortable and durable. With different cuts, like high-neck or bandeau tops, these bikinis express a unique style with the charm of the early 2000s. Our retro color palettes, including golden hues, have a nostalgic appeal for a playful yet elegant beach look.
Shimmering Hardware and Embellishments
Bold and eye-catching, these swimsuits have iconic embellishments like luxe gold hardware that adds a touch of sophistication and glamour to each piece. Drawing from the more opulent styles of the early 2000s, the metallic details shimmer in the sunlight.
Unconventional Shapes and Cuts
Our nostalgic designs challenge traditional swimsuit silhouettes with unexpected geometric tops and cutouts. These daring cuts play with strappy details across the top and bottom for a sexy look that is flattering for all body shapes and sizes.
Defining Y2K Swimwear
In the early 2000s, designers continued to explore risqué swimsuits with creative cutouts and strappy details, like halter bikinis and one-piece monokinis. Hardware elements like belts also helped defined this new era of edgy and sexy swim. At the same time, sporty swimwear became popular too, like low-rise bikini bottoms and supportive bikini tops. Our new styles reimagine iconic elements from the archive with today's advancements in fabric and fit.
How to Go Retro: Styling Our Vintage-Inspired Swimwear
Styling our vintage-inspired swimwear is easy with cover-ups and shoes you may already have in your closet. For an it-girl aesthetic, try a sarong cover-up or knit beach dress to coordinate with the golden and metallic hues of your swimsuit. Incorporate other metallic pieces like a pair of loop earrings, and finish with a pair of black rectangle sunglasses and strappy sandals for a simple beach look from head to toe.
The Y2K comeback is driven by a mix of nostalgia and the cyclical nature of fashion trends. It's clear that all generations are intrigued by the playfulness and boldness of early 2000s fashion and look for these styles in a contemporary context.
