Wearing a monokini is about making a sexy statement. The celebrities we spotted wearing monokinis are all about looking beautiful and making fashion statements. A few we spotted?

• Jessica Alba
• Paris Hilton
• Eva Longoria
• Beyonce
• Vanessa Hudgens
• Megan Fox
• Rihanna
• Audrina Patridge
• Kim, Khloe, & Kourtney Kardashian
• Snooki

For some celebs, the monokini is not just a look to wear at the pool. For instance, Miley Cyrus wore one while performing in concert and Beyonce is wearing one on her new album cover. The monokini is becoming a part of the performance as a costume for most artists.

We do not suggest you wear this when going to the grocery store, but lounging in a tropical location? Totally acceptable attire. Elite Fashion Swimwear has so many hot monokinis to choose from. Let us know which celebrity monokini style is your favorite!

White Bikinis 2012

White swimsuits are always part of designers’ collections and for 2012 there are several white designer bathing suits to choose from. Whether embellished with gold accessories , pearls, sprinkled with Swarovski crystals, or just laser cut using the latest laser cut technology for a unique and distinct design, designer swimsuits in ravishing white are a staple when it comes to fashion swimwear. With top styles in halter, triangle, or push up, and monokinis in provocative and revealing cuts, you’ll be sure to  find that one perfect white swimsuit that will make your day even brighter!

There are different types of monokinis, so keep the following in mind:

• Slim, athletic bodies work a large cut out monokini, and are flattered by diagonal straps and bands.
• If your body has rounder features, above or below, avoid horizontal stripes in that area. Smaller chested and bottomed bodies should look for horizontal stripes to emphasis your features! Look for heavy patterns, reflective fabrics and fringe edges to bring attention to your best parts.
• A cup chests look fabulous in a V cut monokini neckline. Look for traditional monokini?s that cut all the way down to the navel for your body.

The ideal monokini body type has a longer torso, small chest and well defined waist to be shown off around the middle.

For your first monokini purchase, make it a smart and sexy one! Find the bathing suit that?s going to make you look even more fabulous this coming swimsuit season.

“I’ll wear it for as many years as the strings still tie!” Aniston tells Glamour, and goes on saying “Bathing suits now have so much hardware on them that they singe your skin. When you take your bikini off, it looks like you’ve been branded with crop circles and lightning bolts and words like Gucci!”

Among the swimwear trends we’ve noticed is the tendency to add more hardware and detailing to the bathing suits to create a more luxurious look while at the beach or laying by the pool. However, when taking a closer look at the designs, you’ll notice how designers cater to all tastes in swimwear: swimsuits with hardware and intricate detailing and swimsuits with little or no hardware for a more classic bathing suit.

L*Space’s 2012 swimwear collection has two piece swimsuits for every taste.

The Monaco Triangle Jill Bikini has stylish enameled hardware on both top and bottom.The apricot color exudes femininity and refinement while the subtle hardware detailing adds luxury to your beach wardrobe.

Lola Bandeau Fancy Free Bikini offers a gorgeous two piece swimsuit with no hardware detailing. The strapless bandeau top has a twist at center which helps to visually enhance the bust while the bottoms feature smocked sides on wide straps to prevent digging into the hips.

How to avoid awkward tan lines when wearing bathing suits with hardware detailing.

In order to avoid “crop circles and lightning bolts” on your body, you may want to slide the swimsuit up and down a little or move the top straps to the sides. This way the sun will hit the entire area and will not leave marks on your hips or shoulders. To completely avoid shoulder lines, we recommend going with a bandeau top. Bandeau tops come in a variety of styles: fully lined, removable padding inside the cups, soft built in padding which helps with shaping, preformed cups, or even push-up bandeaus for a little more visual bust enhancement.

L*Space Swimwear is all about turning heads. Inspired by the great outdoors, the 2012 swimwear and beachwear collection delivers stylish silhouettes in an eclectic color palette sprinkled with bold statement prints to create a summer get-away collection that will please the eyes and caress the body.

Designer Monica Wise is full of surprises, and her 2012 collection fully displays her perfectionist and elitist nature through her unsurpassed flair for style, fashion, and ultimately, through her undeniable knowledge about what women want and need. Knowing what women want and expect from their swimsuits, Monica delivers that and much more.
