Swim Trends '02
Catch Some Rays

LOOKING FIT proudly presents a sneak peek into the upcoming 2002 swimwear season, as well as some tips to keep the merchandise moving.

From St. Tropez to Rio de Janeiro, from Monte Carlo to Singapore, the forecast for the 2002 swimwear season is bright and beautiful. This was the buzz from DuPont's LYCRA Rendez-Vous 2002 in Monte Carlo held last month at the Grimaldi Forum in Monaco.

Styles, colors, textures and fashion strolled down the catwalk unveiling the newest and hippest designs in fashion and function for 2002. Color focuses in on color combinations, including lime and lavender; pink and yellow; pink and red; and, orange and yellow.

Brazil

South American women love the sexy, abbreviated look of swimwear that's bold, colorful and fun. Styles are full of flavor in modern art patterns, denim photoprints, polka dots and word play. Special touches include jagged edges and handcrafted looks.

Asia

It's a beautiful world, ablaze with mini and oversized florals, fluttering butterflies and elegant tropical prints. Other important trends include tie-dye, mitered metallic stripes, large graphics and spiral patterns. A new inspiration is fishnet coverups.

South Of France

Tres chic and colorful with mixed patterns of fish, sun and florals--all on separate panels of one bikini. Find perfect prints in glazed or wet looks and leather trim or bandana styles and decorative elements such as laser-cut edges, strappy backs and soutash overlays. Special details include mixed scales of pattern and western looks.
