Posted by Siofan | Friday June 3, 20116 comments

Say tie-dye and images of the sixties, Dead Heads and Rasta T-shirts comes to mind. But this print is on a major uptick this summer, and getting a modern overhaul with ikat influences and girlie colours, and in such bright and multi-coloured designs there's no better place to try it out than in beachwear.

Tie-Dye is one of those things that seems to become trendy every other summer! I think it is because it is really only acceptable in summer, the rest of the time, you just look like a hippie. But these suits are all pretty adorable!

I don't have a favourite - they all look great! Realistically though, I think I'd have to go for the Anthropologie splatter maillot one-piece. I think I've liked the Anthropologie suits in each of these swimsuit roundups so far. Telling?
