With summer holidays on the horizon, it’s no surprise that stylish swimwear is top of the wishlist. If you’ve been scrolling through Instagram and eyeing those sleek crinkle-textured bikinis, you’re certainly not alone.
The crinkle trend, first made famous by cult brand Hunza G, has now taken the high street by storm. Known for its bold colours, ultra-stretchy fabric, and signature one-size-fits-most appeal, Hunza G has built a celebrity-studded fanbase.
But with prices starting at £90 and swimsuits climbing up to £175, refreshing your beach wardrobe quickly becomes an expensive affair.
Victoria’s Secret, however, has entered the chat. And their new crinkle swimwear range could just save your summer wardrobe and your bank balance.
Designer Style Without the Designer Price
Victoria’s Secret’s Dream On bikini top and matching bottoms offer that same sculpted, figure-hugging fit the crinkle trend is loved for. The pieces, sold separately, come in at a total of £101 — already far more affordable than Hunza G’s £185 bikini set.
But the real game-changer? Victoria’s Secret’s crinkle one-piece swimsuit, available for just £35.
Compare that to Hunza G’s £175 version from Net-A-Porter, and you’re looking at a massive saving of £140, not to mention enough spare cash for some poolside cocktails.
What’s on Offer?
The collection doesn’t stop at just one style. As reported by the Manchester Evening News, Victoria’s Secret also offers:
- A one-shoulder bikini top in trendy green, black, and red shades.
- Two bottom styles: high-leg briefs and a flattering high-waisted option.
The brand’s crinkle fabric is designed to sculpt and adapt, making it a flattering choice for all body shapes.
And if you’re hunting for even more affordable crinkle swimwear, there are other options:
- Bravissimo: Offers a colourful crinkle swimming costume at £75, available in four shades, including a bold pink.
- Boohoo: Features a range starting from just £8, with playful designs like the belted scoop swimsuit that’s sure to steal the spotlight.
A Few Things to Keep in Mind
At the time of writing, there are no customer reviews yet for Victoria’s Secret’s crinkle collection. We’ll be keeping an eye out for updates.
A quick heads-up: crinkle fabric can be slightly more prone to snagging compared to smoother materials. Something to bear in mind when packing your beach bag.
If you’re after that expensive designer swimwear look without the painful price tag, Victoria’s Secret’s new crinkle range is a strong contender. Offering stylish cuts, flattering fits, and massive savings compared to Hunza G, it’s a no-brainer for summer 2025.
Swim chic and save smart, your holiday wardrobe just got a serious upgrade.
