Kaftan or tunics

Whether you're drawn to bold patterns or timeless minimalism, a kaftan is the ultimate swimsuit cover-up. A gorgeously printed kaftan adds instant drama and personality. Prefer something more understated? A plain linen kaftan offers breezy elegance and effortless comfort, letting your natural style shine through while keeping you cool all day.

Wrap

There are no rules when it comes to wearing a sarong. Wear it around your waist as a skirt or around your neck as a dress. While you can always play it safe with a solid color, Summer 2025 loves printed styles the most.
