There’s nothing that makes us feel better at the beach or pool (besides diving into the water) than a very glamorous cover-up. Whether an old-school caftan, lightweight natural fiber pants or a chic sarong, a stylish cover-up takes your swim look to the next level.
And everyone is looking forward to getting back out there, says Summersalt’s CEO, president and co-founder Lori Coulter and chief brand and digital officer and co-founder Reshma Chattaram Chamberlin. “We’re loving happy, fun dresses and floral prints that celebrate the joy of the season. And with people venturing beyond their backyards and back into the world, versatile cover-ups that go from beach to brunch are in demand.”

Macy’s
Calvin Klein Crochet-Shoulder Tunic Cover Up
The biggest trend for this summer? “Cover-ups that can take you from beach to bar include tie-dye caftans, crochet tunics and printed day dresses,” says Durand Guion, group vice president of the Macy’s fashion office. You’ll keep cool at the pool and out on the town in this white drawstring tunic with crochet details.

Eicolorte Beach Sarong with Tassels
Drape yourself in a gorgeous sarong, which works around your waist or above your chest, giving you so many options. “The beauty of most cover-ups is that the silhouettes are intentionally designed in fuller and more fluid styles, which creates a soft draping effect that flatters most body types,” says Guion. Keep it short and sassy with this slightly sheer short sarong that has tassels that will swing when you stroll on over to the beach bar.

Macy’s
Dotti Plus-Size Summer Sarong Long Pareo Cover-Up
Wrap this “sheer but strong” sarong around your waist, shoulders or top for an easy-breezy beach look.
