Whether you’re into bikinis or one-pieces, shopping for a swimsuit can feel like one of the biggest sartorial challenges of the summer. There are thousands of options to pick from, but instead of falling into a scroll spiral, we’re turning to a trusted source to eliminate the guesswork: the most stylish celebrities.
Between their access to top-tier stylists and early previews of buzzy launches, they’re often the first to wear swimwear that goes on to become viral hits. But it’s not just about trend-spotting—they’re skilled at finding pieces that flatter the body, feel luxe, and photograph beautifully. From Elsa Hosk’s plunging one-piece to Gabrielle Union’s printed bikini, we’ve rounded up the exact swimsuits celebs are loving this season (and made it easy to shop the full look, too). Ahead, your shortcut to the most stylish, celeb-approved swimsuits of summer.
The Plunging One-Piece
A minimalist swimsuit doesn’t have to be boring. Monday Swimwear elevates this timeless design with a pleated waist for extra support and a deep neckline.
The Sweet Scallops
Marysia’s sculptural swimsuits have been a celebrity favorite for years. Here, Sofia Richie Grainge shows that they’re worthy of an investment by dressing her bandeau top up with a gingham headband by Hunza G, another popular swimsuit brand among the stars.
The Playful Print
With tropical fruits and zigzag lines, Bydee captures the energy of the summer season in its swimsuit offerings. Follow Gabrielle Union’s lead and wear yours with a straw cowboy hat.
The Reveal and Conceal
Don’t sleep on Norma Kamali’s swimsuits. For years, celebrities have worn the label’s clever creations. Most recently, Ashley Graham wore a peekaboo one-piece during a trip to Japan.

The Logo Love
When in doubt, a bit of logomania is always a fun option, especially if it’s from a heritage brand like Burberry or Louis Vuitton, as demonstrated by Lisa.
