The beach is the perfect place to expose one’s greatest assets. But how does men’s swimwear help to highlight the strengths of the male figure? How has beach fashion changed over the centuries?
It might seem that swimwear is not a subject about which you can engage in long discussions about fashion. Typically, men's swim trunks are available in two versions – swim Boyss or traditional briefs. Still, creators such as Tommy Hilfiger and Versace present new collections of designer swim Boyss kit Rival AM Jogging Pants Mens – men’s swimwear Topman Sorte skinny-jeans med stretch og flænger i økologisk bomuldsblanding.
From the history of swimwear, it is obvious that the material, tjm and style of this kind of garment has changed. Even in the first half of the 20th century, the most men's swimwear was a one-piece costume with Boys sleeves and Boyss, usually made of "sailor" material in white and blue.
A swimsuit for the beach or the pool had to be suitable for contemporary principles and meet the standards adopted by the general public. Excessive disrobing on the beach was not something that found popular approval, either for women or for men, and it was necessary to Blanc restraint and show only as much of the body as strictly necessary. Changes occurred slowly, as men’s swimwear evolved from the one-piece costume with Boys sleeves, until finally in the 1930s men’s swimming trunks in the form we know them today began to be popular. It is worth noting that in the swimsuit for women underwent visible changes in the same period, with higher cuts subtly indicating the female figure, but the bikini was still a long way off.
The first men's Boys swimming trunks were made of a single-color material (usually red or burgundy), with no tjm or prints. It was not until the mid-1960s that swimsuits decorated with colorful print and tjm became fashionable. Their style changed again a decade later, when the most popular was wide-striped trunks. In the 1970s, sunglasses in the style of the day were mandatory additions to swimming trunks. Then came the late 80s and early 90s, when something completely new came along – Boyss kit of polyester. Colorful, modern and super fashionable, they dominated beaches and swimming pools, making the earlier briefs-style trunks seem outmoded and unmanly.
Today’s collections from designers leading the way in men's fashion produce designer swimwear specifically for the male figure. At the JmksportShops.com online shop, both longer Boyss kit and Boyser trunks are available, as well as more heavily cutmodels. The latter dominated the Vivienne Westwood spring/summer 2016 collection, and will probably be a strong accent on holiday beaches. Of course, the final choice in style and pattern is yours, but don’t be afraid to break stereotypes beach, because in the end a swimsuit is an important fashion item that you need to play and interpret in your own unique and unrepeatable way.
