Whether you’re heading to the beach or the poolside, there’s no denying that a swim cover-up is a wardrobe must-have. Even if you’re determined to flaunt your toned bikini body, a caftan or sheer frock can easily shield you from the sun’s harmful rays and offer coverage. From basic white to wildly patterned, we’ve curated a few stellar cover-ups to slip into this summer.

1) Forever 21 Crochet Trim Swim Cover-Up, $34: We are liking the flirty aesthetic of this little ivory number, which features a dipping V-neckline and tiny cut-out accents. The dainty crochet details and flowing cut create an effortlessly bohemian look.

2) Elan Cover-Up Romper, $67: For a more structured take on the breezy cover-up, try swapping a dress for a romper instead. The beautiful deep berry tone of this ensemble is sure to enhance your bronzed summertime skin. To finish off the look, the V-neckline and floaty sleeves wrap up the piece.

3) Surf Gypsy Crochet Cover-Up Tunic, $91: Along with the more vibrant options on the market, there’s nothing like a simple black tunic to slip over your favourite two-piece. This design features three-quarter sleeves and a pretty scalloped crochet finish.

4) Lucky Brand Lucky Garden Dress Swim Cover-Up, $103: The splashy floral print on this spaghetti strap frock is sure to seize attention. With its tiny straps, V back straps and asymmetrical hemline, the colourful and lightweight dress makes a statement.

5) MINKPINK Conflict Of Interest Mini Caftan Swim Cover-Up, $171: With its eye-catching pattern, this caftan offers an exotic feel for those balmy summer afternoons. The vibrant patchwork design, rainbow tones and loose sleeves all lend a casually sexy aesthetic.
