Megan Thee Stallion Took Over the Runway at Miami Swim Week
Miami Swim Week has officially come to a close, and with it not only comes the beginning of summer, but also a fresh outlook on the upcoming resort and swim trends to shop, wear, and love this season and next. After Paraiso Miami Swim Week celebrated its 20th anniversary last year, 2025 marked 40 years of the legacy brand Shan, almost 25 years of Miami-favorite Luli Fama, and 10 years of the ultra-upcoming brand Oséree. This year's event also launched the inaugural edition of the Swimwear Icons Hall of Fame (SIHOF), where Megan Thee Stallion accepted the Cultural Icon Award (and later walked down her own runway). 'I have spent over a decade immersed in this space and felt there was a lack of recognition for the people whose creativity, innovation, and influence helped turn swim into a global cultural force,' says Natalija Dedic-Stojanovic, founder of Paraiso Miami Swim Week. '[SIHOF] honors the legacy of the visionaries who have shaped the swimwear industry across fashion, media, beauty, and culture.' With editors, buyers, models, and influencers—and Rick Ross—buzzing about, this year's event was one for the books. Even outside of swimwear, the collections shown in Miami are both a reflection and an indicator of other upcoming fashion trends to watch out for—burgundy summer, anyone? There's no time like the present to shop our favorite trends of the week, so scroll below for your next dose of summer inspiration. Maybe it's a bit obvious that sea themes would be all over the runways at Miami Swim Week, but this year feels different. Shells, starfish, and mermaid motifs have taken over, even outside of swimwear, and yet we still love to see them in our favorite waterside styles, like sparkling seascapes at Oceanus and underwater hues at Luli Fama. An added bonus? Claire Holt (a.k.a. Emma from H2O: Just Add Water) sat front row at the first show of the week. Stripes of all colorways, silhouettes, and sizes have become a marker of summer style in and out of the swim category. Nautical, preppy, or artistic, it's the perfect pattern trend to dive into this summer, especially with brands like Montce and Azulu to back it up. Limited Too enthusiasts, rejoice! From tankinis and Hawaiian prints (hello, hibiscus) to fun florals and colorful prints, the height of 2000s nostalgia made a comeback this Miami Swim Week at shows like Leslie Amon and Cupshe. Maybe it's the Lilo & Stitch remake, the Carrie Bradshaw style resurgence, or general readiness for tropical weather. Whatever your inspiration, get piña colada-ready with these styles. Burgundy is perhaps an unexpected color trend for swimwear, but not to us. Tones in the family of barolo, burgundy, and maroon have gained popularity in nearly every category of fashion, even for summer. With hues this rich and gorgeous on every skin tone, we're not complaining! You just can't go wrong with a classic black one-piece, bikini, or resort set. For those of us who like to keep a uniform style, even at the pool or beach, Miami brands have us covered when it comes to chic styles to shop. Perhaps it's a nod to the '50s and '60s swim styles, or maybe it's a reaction to the hot pants takeover of recent years, but swim shorts and skirts should definitely be on your radar for the summer, especially for those who prefer more coverage. For a sporty look, go for mini shorts. And for a more retro vibe, a matching swim skirt is the way to go. Megan Thee Stallion made waves when she walked down her 'Hot Girl Summer' runway in a metallic high-neck monokini. It might be a less obvious silhouette to shop, but it's definitely one to keep in mind, especially if you're tired of regular bikini styles. Just don't forget your SPF! Pastels seem to have a moment every spring and summer. That said, brands find a way to make them fresh and updated each year. Whether it's a sunset ombré medley like at Sigal, shown in the garden at the Ritz-Carlton, or trendy butter yellow from Montce at Casa Faena, now's the perfect time to try out which pastel shade is best for you.

Megan Thee Stallion just officially kicked off Hot Girl Summer in Miami at Swim Week
Talk about bringing the heat. Megan Thee Stallion channeled a supermodel Thursday night, strutting in her very first Paraiso Miami Swim Week at the tents set up at Collins Park in Miami Beach. The 'Savage' singer, who was last in town promoting her Chicas Divertidas Tequila at the South Beach Wine & Food Festival, wasn't just making a celebrity appearance. The 30-year-old stunner just launched her own bathing suit line conveniently named after her 2019 breakthrough hit, 'Hot Girl Summer.' Models of all shapes and sizes were sent down the runway in styles hotter than Kendall in August, from bright colored string bikinis to shimmery, bare-all maillots and cute mini dresses with spaghetti straps. The star of the evening eventually showed to cheers, rocking a Space Age silver two piece suit, accessorized by skyscraper heels and a giant, untamed wig. 'Thank you to my team for making my first runway show be so special and amazing!' the Houston rapper wrote on an Instagram carousel of fabulousness. 'Thank you to all my beautiful models for showcasing my collection so beautifully with lots of positive energy. I can't wait to keep growing in this space I'm so excited for what's to come!' You can shop 'thee' affordable collection at where skimpy halter tops start at just $18. (Pro tip, ladies, don't delay: The summer solstice falls on June 20 this year.)

The company said that the ruling canceled a trademark registration for Miami Swim Week by DC Swim Week-Miami Swim Week The Shows that allegedly was causing confusion in the market. The law offices of Elysa Galloway and Charlotte Towne Law, known as The Mermaid Lawyer, have initiated a federal lawsuit on behalf of DCSW Group LLC to protect the Miami Swim Week trademark.
