Marc by Marc Jacobs Swimwear 2009

In 2008, visionary designer Marc Jacobs announced his licensing agreement with Swimwear Anywhere, Inc to produce a line of swimwear and beachwear for the Marc By Marc Jacobs collection.

I’ve selected three swimwear/cover-up options for women who dare to show their curves in Marc Jacobs’ swimwear creations and bare a little style at the beach this season. I love the kitschy nature of the pac-man-esque print on this divine one-shoulder Marc by Marc Jacobs malliot.  It makes me think of my fun childhood in Los Angeles taking a romp on the beach with my friends.

I’d definitely wear this one-piece swimsuit to a summer pool party or to a backyard barbecue with crisp white shorts and silver jeweled Guiseppe Zanotti flats.

This Marc by Marc Jacobs Swimsuit is for the woman who isn’t afraid to show her curves, or manufacture a few with all the cutouts and detailing in this sculptural suit.

The printed design, coupled with the deep colored piping, elongates the body. But with this swimsuit on, no one will care how tall you look.

This suit is all about the delicate balance of revealing sexy skin and the vibrant nature of the colors woven into the suit. One look at this suit and the eye will never be disappointed.

Lastly, a girl needs a great cover-up that can double as a summer frock or add a little bit of happiness to conceal a poochy stomach on the days where she’s feeling a little bloated.

The character on the coverup is not only a great conversation piece at parties but a feel-good cartoon ambassador to help you fight the summer doldrums at the end of the season.
