Blue swimsuits are in! If you're looking to branch out and add a splash of color to your swimwear wardrobe this summer, you can't go wrong with a classic shade of blue. Blue bathing suits look great on everyone; women with either warm or cool undertones can usually find a shade of blue that complements their skin tone.

We're loving blue swimsuits so much this year that we put together this little list of some of the hottest blue swimsuit style trends. If you're looking to buy blue swimsuits this summer, look no further!

Which Blue Hues Are in for Summer 2023?

Blue may be associated with cool themes, but this blue summer hue is hot!

WGSN- a leading fashion trend forecaster that uses global research and data to deliver strategic and accurate trend forecasts, predicted that "Tranquil Blue" will be a key color trend in 2023 spring and summer collections.

Tranquil Blue is a mid-toned blue hue with a simplicity and clarity that evokes calm water, light and air. It has been named a core color of the 2023 palette, along with Luscious or Latex Red, Sundial, and Verdigris.

In general, the spring and summer 2023 palette has trended toward bright colors that evoke feelings of positivity. It's believed buyers and fashionistas will turn toward upbeat colors that they can connect with positively.

Tranquil Blue

Our take on the tranquil blue swimsuit is our Wave set in surface blue. These high rise bottoms are made of a thick, ribbed material that perfectly complements the soothing color. The bottoms are low cut and provide full coverage in the back to keep everything covered up while you're swimming.

The Seashell top in matching surface blue is the perfect complement to these bottoms. Made of the same thick, ribbed material, it provides excellent support and great coverage. The square cut low back with a cute twist is a fun, unique look that will be sure to turn heads.

Baby Blue

For a softer, more playful blue, check out the Beach Babe swimsuit top and bottom set in baby blue and green color block. Forget swimming: all you'll want to do in this combo is be waited on hand and foot. As blue swimsuits go, this is one of our most popular looks. The simple, thick-strap tank top with buttons gives this a subtle, sexy girl-next-door vibe. The high rise bottoms create a classic, 1950s movie star feel.

Paired with a set of royal blue, high-waisted bottoms, this look will make you want to leave your cover ups and other swim accessories at home.

Sapphire Blue

Women with blue eyes who are looking to buy blue swimsuits that show off their assets can't go wrong with a beautiful top in sapphire blue. Blue eyes will pop against our Racha swimsuit top in sapphire blue. The halter top makes this swim suit super adjustable, and the cute wrapped hemline can be tied in the front, on the side, or in the back for a flexible look.

Pair with a matching set of bottoms, or go for a fun floral print in a complementary blue - we suggest the Leisure reversible bottoms in floral blue. Great for mix-and-matching, they can be worn pattern side out or plain side out.

Deep Blue

Those wanting a richer, subtler hue might prefer our Barefoot swimsuit bottom in deep blue. These ultra high-rise bottoms come all the way up over the belly button, and provide excellent tummy-tucking support for those seeking that. The ruched sides flatter your figure and accentuate your curves in all the right places.

Pair these with the Coast top in a matching shade of deep blue for a look that's sophisticated and smart while still being eye-catching. Great for swimming, surfing or active girls, this top is sporty and comfortable, and holds everything in place (if you're a swim instructor, you'll love this top!)

Aqua Blue

What would summer be without a splash of fun? This vivid aqua blue swimsuit top makes any skin tone pop, and will make you the center of attention at your next beach or pool gathering. We like this color for our Racha top, because the halter neck and wrap tie are so fun.

This look is great for kids and parents alike - but we think the bright color is a fun way to keep kids safe at the pool. You'll never lose sight of your child in a whole bunch of other kids when they're wearing this!

Why Blue Has Stood the Test of Time

There is no color more timeless than blue. It's the color of the sky and the color of the sea. It can evoke tranquility and calm or life and vigor. Blue swimsuits are a fun way to tap into that timeless beauty and add a little fun style to your summer vacation.

Whether you're a swim instructor, surfer, beach bum, or if you're simply looking to hang by the pool and watch your kids having a good time, blue swimwear will mean you look good doing it.
