Searching for that perfect swimsuit can be the most dreaded part of packing. That small piece of fabric is the last thing you throw into your bag before zipping it up, a stress inducing afterthought, forcing the futile packing of every swimsuit in sight to ensure limitless options.

What if you found the perfect all-purpose suit to set the tone for your next vacation? After all, haven't you earned yourself a lounge on the beaches of Thailand? It sounds like Solid and Striped might be the answer to your jet-setter prayers.

The New York based label combines European and Japanese fabrics to create a beautiful collection of solid and color-blocked swimsuits. Unlined and made using quality fabrication techniques, these suits are sexy, supportive and versatile. Famous for their signature one-piece - The Anne-Marie, Solid and Stripe reimagines the concept of a once frumpy swimsuit, allowing for a look of confidence and sex-appeal in a covered silhouette. Pulling inspiration from the seascapes of Water Mill, NY, to the vibrant cliffs of the Amalfi coast, this brand has created a unique palette of swim that is equal parts functional, timeless and chic.

So dive swimsuit first into packing for your next trip, and travel easy knowing that you have the ideal piece for your next adventure.

What's next for you, solid or striped?
