Now that the sunshine is finally here, and we're booking our summer holidays (or envious of the Love Island stars having a care-free summer), now's the time to be shopping for a brand new one-piece.
If you're after a flattering swimsuit style, we've got one that will be perfect for you. Ribbed, textured or crinkle cut, however you want to describe it, this swimwear trend is one that never seems to go out of style, and we can see why. The crinkled design is so flattering on all body types, with designer brand Hunza G kicking off the trend with its iconic swimsuits. There are so many affordable lookalikes around right now, and you're going to want them for your next holiday.
If you're on the hunt for a staple swimming costume, shop our favourites from the timeless ribbed trend...
Style: Ribbed or crinkled, this swimsuit style was made popular with the infamous Hunza G. While we're not a fan of featuring copycats, we do want to share swimsuits inspired by the style.
Price: Swimsuits don't have to cost the earth so we want to showcase a wide array of price points. You've got crinked designs from £20.
Can be returned: Swimsuits are a personal choice, and only you can decide whether you love or hate it. The swimwear styles in this edit can all be returned to store for a refund.
I have tried on a Hunza G before. I bought one because I'd been influenced and the colour was incredible (the costumes have a huge selection of colours available). I absolutely loved it but didn't feel all that supported.
Hunza G's seersucker swimsuits were a big deal in the eighties and are now a popular brand with the fashion pack. This aqua coloured design is part of the new season collection and is crafted from the textured fabric, and shaped into an all-in-one square neck silhouette that’s perfect for posing with the ocean as your backdrop.

How stunning is this colour? You can choose between teal or coral, and to be quite honest, I think it would be rude not to go for both.

The Details

Sizes: 8 - 16
Bust support: Removable padding (and internal shelf bra for support)
Composition: 95% nylon, 5% elastane
Editor's Note
I absolutely adore Seafolly and I would probably say it's my favourite swimwear brand. I just think you can't go wrong and there are plenty of stylish one-pieces to choose from. They are quite expensive but I have some that I have worn for years and years and they're still excellent.
Made from the on-trend textured fabric, Seafolly's Sea Dive one-piece swimsuit has a simple, no-frills design. What's more, if you love it, you've got three other colours to choose from.
I have this swimsuit from last year as they brought it out in a gorgeous candyfloss pink shade. I do have to say I adore this green and think it'll look divine in the sunshine.
The textured fabric mixed with the one shoulder design equals a very stylish swimsuit. It's designed in a regular fit, with added stretch for comfort. It also features Sun Smart technology which helps to protect skin against harmful UV rays.

This one is giving major Love Island contestant vibes.
In an eye-catching pink, this stylish cut-out swimsuit has smoothing tummy control and a shape enhancing design.
Wow! Calling all big busted ladies - I've found the most dreamy swimsuit. Say goodbye to frumpy styles and say hello to this neon pink number. Prepare to have everyone green with envy poolside.
This swimsuit really is something. If you thought the Hunza G style was just for the small breasted ladies, think again. This supportive underwired swimsuit is made with the same much-loved textured fabric on its best-selling Cancun swimsuit and it's definitely going to fly off the virtual rails.
