When it comes to swimwear there’s no shortage of cuts, shapes, colours and designs available, but if there’s one variation that’ll never go out of style it's a simple strappy black bikini. Universally flattering, understated and timeless, it's an absolute essential in your swimwear collection, and is easy to pair with anything and everything.
If your bathing suit selection is lacking in the simple black bikini department, take some shopping advice from Molly-Mae Hague, who thinks she’s found “the best” one out there. Sharing a snap on her Instagram stories, the former Love Island star donned the SKIMSRcycld Swim Tri Top, , and the matching Rcycld Chky Tanga Btm, , as she raved about the two piece set.

I will have this on all summer, I wear a size L for reference.” as she shared a picture of herself styling the minimalist swimsuit with a pair of wide leg black trousers and a denim Miu Miu cowboy hat, . The bikini is made from 76% recycled nylon, and has an classic fit that suits all body types.
Just like SKIMS’ shapewear, the swimwear range has been designed to give you a figure-enhancing fit that flatters your shape. The bottoms have a simple slip-on design with a mid rise waistband and high leg tanga cut sides, whilst the addition of tonal top stitching gives them a subtle luxe-looking edge.
The top has matching topstitching, with classic triangle cups and a regular fit, with self-tie fastenings at the back and around the neck. This style of tie-back bikini also allows you to switch up how you wear it, with plenty of TikTok videos showing you different ways to fasten the straps to either improve support, avoid tan lines, or just give it a different look each time you wear it.

The strappy design on the waist and back helps bare some skin whilst still covering up, and it has adjustable straps and extra padding to give you plenty of lift and support, making it extra flattering.
