With temperatures rising and spring right around the corner, it’s time to add to your bikini collection! In the name of supporting BIPOC-owned businesses, I found four amazing Black-owned brands with various price points and styles, so just about anyone can find something they like. It’s easy to get overwhelmed when shopping for swimwear online, so I recommend checking out the designers below! 

MATTE Collection

Worn by Jordyn Woods, Ciara, and plenty of other celebs, MATTE Collection is full of both basic and statement swimsuits that you’ll love. Their solid and patterned swimsuits range from an XS to a 3X, and they have a wide variety of coverage levels to choose from. MATTE also has accessories, outerwear, and athleisure to choose from, making them a one-stop shop for basics for any season. 

Ego Swim

Ego Swim is full of bold colors and fun cutouts to make a statement at the beach. I’m obsessed with their skirt coverups that are super flattering and match perfectly with the rest of their collection. Ego’s sizes range from a small to an extra-large, and their prices fall between $20 and $55, making them an affordable option. 

SUNDAY LONDON

If you like fun patterns, SUNDAY LONDON is the brand for you. Their brightly colored swimsuits range from a size US 2 to US 16, and they have bikini tops for anyone with a fuller bust. SUNDAY LONDON’s mesh dresses, shirts, and bottoms are the perfect accessory to their colorful swimwear at a price point that won’t break the bank. SUNDAY LONDON is full of unique pieces that any bold beachgoer is destined to love. 

Riot Swim

While slightly more expensive than the previous brands I listed, Riot Swim has tons of options in both beachwear and athleisure. This brand specializes in basics that make for great staple pieces, and their website is categorized by color, coverage, and more to make it easy to find the bikini you need. You can shop Riot Swim’s collection on both their website and through Victoria’s Secret, Revolve, PacSun, and Revolve. 

Whether you’ll be lounging by the pool or heading to the beach, these brands definitely have something in store for you. Be sure to check them out and get ready for summer!
