Eye-popping hues have been one of the most influential trends of the last several seasons (beginning with Raf Simons' Spring 2010 [3] runway show for Jil Sander). And wherever ready-to-wear leads, other fashion typically follows suit, whether it be lingerie, hosiery, or—perhaps most relative in the lead-up to spring—swimwear. Wondering just how bright to go? Peruse our February style page [4], where bikinis and other beach gear make a big statement in tropical hues. But a girl's got to have options. Check out some more on-trend swimsuit picks:
