Wave Wear
Swimwear, like fashion in general, reflects the culture. This summer, function plays into the flesh-versus-fabric equation, as women and girls of all ages have the freedom to frolic in the water without the fear of swimsuit wipeout thanks to boy-cut bottoms, hipsters and board shorts. And as guys gain greater options in dress, they too can flex their fashion force at the beach.
