2. Crochet Queen Vibes
Crochet is hot—and not just because it's airy on a hot day. The crocheted one dresses, tops and shorts are back and give you instant boho vibes. They catch the sunlight in a magical way (read: perfect for golden hour photos) and are super Instagrammable.

A crocheted midi dress over your bikini immediately gives your look something artistic and relaxed. Think of a crochet dress beach proof and full of influencer beach style.

Must-have: The "Isla Crochet Dress" is perfect for Ibiza-style snaps or your 'outfit of the day' on Mykonos.

Insta-proof tip: combine crochet with natural colors such as white, sand and beige for that minimal chic aesthetic.

3. Statement Swimsuits (Hello, Main Character Energy)
Anyone who thought swimsuits are boring has been living under a rock this summer. Because this season is all about statement one-pieces with cut-outs, asymmetrical shoulders, metallic shades or tie-dye prints.

Combine a pronounced swimsuit with a transparent pareo or an open one blouse in linen fabric for a casual but well-thought-out look. A statement swimsuit for women can really steal the show.

For example, try the "Luna Cut-Out Swimsuit" in terracotta or the shiny “Sol Metallic” in silver for a futuristic touch.

Bonus: swimsuits are perfect for photos where you just walk out of the sea à la Bond girl – instant drama, instant likes.

4. Sheer & Chic: Transparent Layers
Transparency is the magic word this season. Think of maxi dresses in mesh or tulle, translucent kaftans or chiffon skirts. They give your bikini look an extra dimension and provide movement on screen.

Sheer pieces are perfect for content shoots during sunset – the soft fabrics catch the light beautifully.

Our favorite? The "Aphrodite Sheer Dress": perfect over a black or nude bikini with gold jewelry. Transparent beach dress vibes all over!

Insta hack: let the dress flutter in the wind for a cinematic effect – add slow motion video and you're done!

8. Barbiecore on the Beach
Pink, glitter and a bit over-the-top? Say no more. Barbiecore is the trend for everyone who likes fun, bright and fabulous. Think of hot pink bikinis, shiny pareos and glittery slippers. This Y2K beach fashion is a must.

How To Create The Perfect Beach Content?
You have the look, but how do you ensure that you actually score that viral post? Here are some quick tips:

  • Golden hour = magic hour. Go for that warm, soft light before sunset.

  • Use burst mode. Have someone take several photos in a row while you move – more natural and playful.

  • Provide props. A coconut, a book, a sun hat – small details make the difference.

  • Filter less, glow more. Natural edits with a soft glow work best.
