As you would know, African print swimwear is everywhere! One plugged in on your facebook or instagram and there goes your likes and hearts off the roof. But as the summer time nears for our westerners, the question remains, which is which and where to buy there.
Most times you will see these images reposted with no credits so it’s hard to connect the links and labels behind each swimwear, so we thought we would bring you those that are making a lot of noise today and where to get them. In no particular order scroll to see all the brands and labels.
RED STAR COLLECTION
If you have not seen any of their images yet then you probably are not on social media. Not only did they make a grand appearance in 2016 by some amazingly hotter than hot girls modelling in their clothes, but also they have unique designed swimwear which stood out. In many cases we tend to find African swimwear are usually just the print version of styles already out there, however they did push the barriers. See a few pics below, and you can shop their items at https://www.etsy.com/shop/redstarcollection
