Studio 5 with Brooke Walker
Back in June, we kicked off the summer with a bang when Brooke Walker featured Brittany Jepsen of The House that Lars Built on her show. The two discussed body image and self-confidence issues that so many women deal with, and Brittany shared her personal mantras: Just Wear the Suit, No One Else Really Cares, and Life is Too Short to Wear Boring Suits. Brittany reviewed her design process for her second collection in collaboration with us here at Lime Ricki and explained how this collection was inspired by her time living in Brazil. We’re so happy Brittany was featured, and thrilled to have gotten some exposure for the collection!

Matching Sets Are Having a Moment
Let’s talk about one of our favorite trends that’s made serious waves this summer: matching swim sets! Whether you’re hitting the beach or lounging poolside, modest matching swimwear is having a major moment, and we couldn’t be more excited. We love the way this trend combines style, fun, and a sense of effortless coordination—all while staying true to our core of modest, confident swimwear.
Why We Love Matching Sets
Matching sets take the guesswork out of putting together a killer swim look. Whether you prefer bold prints or sleek solids, matching tops and bottoms give you that instant put-together vibe. Plus, they let you make a statement without sacrificing comfort or coverage—two things that are super important to us at Lime Ricki. It’s the perfect blend of fashion and function!

Modest Bathing Suit Trends
Looking for modest swimsuit trends? Let’s dive in!
If you’ve ever been frustrated by swimsuit shopping, you’re not alone. While it seems like there are endless options at specialty, department, athletic apparel, or big box stores, often it seems like the styles are all the same and are all clearly designed for the same body type or size. Which just isn’t realistic when every body is different.
Increasingly, the oversaturated swimwear world has seen a shift in buyer behavior in recent years where diversity and inclusivity are key. People believe more and more that clothes should fit them, not the other way around, and we’re all for that sort of body positivity (it’s why we never airbrush or photoshop our models—they are just right the way they are, and so are you).
If you’ve ever struggled to find swimwear that suits you, modest swimwear might be the solution. When we’re having fun in the sun, the last thing we want to be doing is constantly fidgeting, adjusting, and checking to make sure all is where it should be.
In our opinion, coverage = comfort and comfort = confidence.
Today, we’ll be taking you through some of the top modest bathing suit trends to help you find a modest swimsuit style that helps you look and feel your best.
The “Rise” of Modest Swimwear
While there's always been a demand for modest swimwear, it's no longer considered a niche market as more and more women look for swimsuits that offer more coverage.Whether you’re having a beach day, lounging by a lake, swimming at a pool, playing at a waterpark, participating in water sports or something else that calls for a swimsuit, we’ve got you covered. Our range of mix-and-match tankinis and one-pieces are perfect if you’re looking to marry fashion with function.
No matter the reason--whether personal preference, cultural, religious or a bit of all three, our modest swim styles provide the coverage, comfort and security you're looking for in a swimsuit.
Trend 1: Tankinis
Whether you’re keen to mix or match, the fun of a tankini (much like a bikini) is its versatility. From solids to prints to neutrals and pops of color, you get the coverage you’re after with the convenience of a two-piece.
At Lime Ricki, we have 3 tankini top styles to choose from: a traditional tankini, a crop or bralette, or a peplum. We even have rash guards if that modest swim style is of interest.
Note: All styles are size-inclusive and offer built-in support.
Our traditional tankinis come in different cuts and offer both thick and thin straps, a variety of necklines, and other design details that allow you to find a swim style you’ll really love.
Our crop and bralette styles are perfect if you’re wanting a more modest bikini or a more modern tankini. Plus, while these tops are made for swimming and water activities, we also really love them as workout-wear, so you’re getting a little two for one. We offer different lengths, strap types, and necklines in our favorite fun and feminine prints.
Our peplum tankini tops are our most flirty and more feminine silhouettes while also offering coverage and support. Swimwear but make it fashion, right?
In terms of modest swim bottoms, we offer four styles: classic, high-waist, skirts, and shorts. Swim skirts are particularly trendy right now among those who want coverage but also like for their swimwear to feel like a complete ‘fit. The cut of our swim skirts is really effortlessly chic if we do say so ourselves.
The top 3 reasons to choose a tankini:
- Style versatility
- Comfort + coverage
- Practicality
Trend 2: One-pieces
Typically when we think about modest swimwear, we think one-pieces. Other retailers tend to make their one-piece designs more matronly or maternity-exclusive which is just unnecessarily limiting. One-pieces have long been associated with elegance, sophistication, and athleticism. They give full coverage while being feminine.
These sleek, stylish suits are gaining popularity for a few reasons:
- They’re classic. From retro-inspired looks to modern, minimalist designs, one-piece suits will never go out of style.
- Seamless support and structure. Features like built-in bust support, quality fabrics, design construction, and more all enhance comfort and provide a flattering fit for all body types.
- They’re activity-friendly. For those of us who enjoy active beach days, one-piece swimsuits offer the security needed for swimming, surfing, or playing beach volleyball. Their snug fit ensures they stay in place, allowing for worry-free movement.
At Lime Ricki, we have a few cuts to choose from: traditional one-pieces, knotted one-pieces, swim dresses, or one-piece rash guards. The details of each style vary, featuring different strap styles, necklines, accents, and more. You really can’t go wrong with a one-piece modest swimsuit.
Trend 3: Colors + Prints
You’ll always find bright, bold colors, graphic patterns, and pretty, unique prints at Lime Ricki, but we also have a range of more subtle, simple suits to choose from. After all, the little details are what sets something apart! In our opinion, summer is for having fun, and we like to have fun with color.
Trend 4: Suits That’ll Last More Than a Season
When you shop at specialty modest swim stores, you can trust that you’ll take home something treated with the utmost TLC. We only use quality fabrics and trims and our small-batch suits are constructed sustainably in responsible factories to reduce environmental impact.
We do not order over-stock fabric so we can reduce excess yardage, and we look for creative ways to use remnants, like making hair scrunchies, or using it for prototypes in the design process. It's important to us to be as responsible as we can throughout the manufacturing process.
Finding the Perfect Fit: Modest Swimsuit Edition
This modest swim “trend” won’t end anytime soon. At Lime Ricki, you’ll find modest swims made for every body that’ll help you look and feel your best no matter what water activity is on the agenda.

The Best Nursing-Friendly Swimsuits for Breastfeeding Moms
Shopping for swimsuits when you’re pregnant is one thing; shopping for swimsuits when you’re nursing that little human is a whole other animal. Fortunately, nursing-friendly swimwear does exist for breastfeeding mamas—you just have to know what to look for!
That’s where our team comes in. We want you to enjoy your busy, on-the-go summer at the beach or pool without feeling panicked about how you’re going to feed your child comfortably in public. Here, we’ll talk about our favorite nursing swimsuits and features to search for so you don’t have to compromise comfort or style.
Factors to Consider
The swimwear market is flooded with several options, which can make the task of choosing a nursing-friendly swimsuit feel overwhelming. To guide you in the right direction, consider these things:
Functionality: Nursing swimwear should be thoughtfully designed with convenient options like removable or easy-to-untie straps. The key is to choose a swimsuit that suits your preferences, ensuring you won't have to struggle with removing a damp suit each time your child is hungry, only to put it back on after feeding time is over.
Color/Patterns: It's no secret that milk tends to leak. Opting for certain shades and patterns, particularly darker and/or busier ones, proves to be more resilient against the unavoidable, good-ol’ spills and leaks often linked with nursing.
Adjustability: As your body adjusts to postpartum life, choosing a nursing swimsuit with adjustable straps ensures a snug fit that can adapt to changes in the months ahead.
Now for the fun part: specific examples!
Tankini Tops
A tankini top with built-in cups is one of the most popular choices for breastfeeding moms. This nursing swim top offers the convenience of easy access for feeding while providing the coverage and support every mom desires. Plus, thanks to the cups, you can easily put nursing pads in. Look for adjustable straps and stretchy fabrics to accommodate changing breast sizes.
Halter-Style
Speaking of adjustable straps, we are big fans of halter-style swimsuits for nursing mamas! The halter-neck design typically involves ties or a clasp at the back of the neck, allowing easy and quick access to the chest for breastfeeding. This feature makes it convenient to feed without having to remove the entire swimsuit. The adjustable neck ties also provide a customizable fit, which is—again—particularly helpful for changing breast sizes. Finally, halter-style nursing swimsuits offer good coverage around the chest area, which is especially helpful if you’re not used to your new cup size yet. Confidence and comfort? Check and check.
Adjustable Shoulder Ties
Similarly, adjustable shoulder ties or straps function the same way—there are just two of them instead of one. Shoulder ties allow for a customizable fit, easy access, and versatility. What’s nice about having two ties is you can leave one side done up while nursing on the opposite side and then switch to the other, ensuring more coverage if you’re in public.
One Shoulder
The asymmetrical design of a one-shoulder nursing swimsuit provides easy access to the breast for nursing. Moms can simply lower the shoulder strap (or untie it if it’s adjustable!) on the side they intend to nurse, allowing for discreet and convenient breastfeeding without having to remove the entire swimsuit. Plus, the one-shoulder design offers support and coverage that many nursing mamas prefer.
Zip-Front
A zip-front nursing swim top is a practical choice for obvious reasons! This style features a front zipper, allowing you to adjust the opening for breastfeeding while providing a trendy and sporty look. Opt for high-quality zippers and durable fabric, and you’re in business.
Runner-Ups: Wrap-Style and Deep V-Neck
Similar to many nursing bras, a wrap-style nursing swimsuit is a great alternative. The wraparound design allows for easy access on both sides. A deep V-neck style also grants easy access. Our only qualm with these styles is the low-cut design, leaving chances for a different kind of spillage with your changing breast size. If ample coverage is not a worry to you, then go for it! We love to see a postpartum mama with confidence at the pool. If you want more modest options, however, Lime Ricki has got you covered—literally.
Nurse Confidently with Lime Ricki
Being a breastfeeding mom doesn't mean you have to sacrifice style for nursing swimwear. At Lime Ricki, we carry modest, nursing-friendly swimsuits that prioritize both fashion and functionality. Whether you prefer a tankini, wrap-style, zip-front, or one-piece swimsuit, there's a perfect option for every mom. Plus, unlike maternity swimwear, a nursing swimsuit is something you can wear well into the future!
Embrace your postpartum body with confidence, and enjoy precious moments by the water with your little one in tow. Dive into comfort and style with these handpicked nursing-friendly swimsuits, making your beach days even more enjoyable.

Packing List: Best Swimsuits for Summer Getaways
Whether your summer vacation involves a tropical island, a mountain getaway, or a city adventure, we've got you covered with the ultimate packing list to make your trip unforgettable. From the best swimsuits for summer to chic swimwear accessories, our guide has everything you need to enjoy your sun-drenched holiday. And don't just take our word for it – we put this list to the test on our recent getaway for The Sisters Collection photoshoot, where we modeled our new mix and match swimwear. So rest assured, our tips are tried and true!
- Outfits: When packing your outfits, prioritizing comfort and versatility will help you make the most of your trip. Choose a selection of lightweight tops such as tank tops, t-shirts, and loose blouses, which you can pair with shorts, skirts, or trousers. Versatile sundresses are also great for transitioning from day to night. And don’t forget pajamas!
- Undergarments: When packing undergarments, opt for breathable fabrics to stay comfortable in the heat. Nude or seamless options are ideal for wearing under light-colored or sheer clothing. You’ll also want to pack a few pairs of comfortable and supportive bras or bralettes that suit different outfit styles, and a few pairs of socks.
- Swimwear: As long as you're traveling when it's warm, pack at least one swimsuit just in case. Even if lounging by the pool isn't on your itinerary, you may find that you need a rest day from the jet lag, and the perfect place to spend it is by the water! This keeps you from having to spend quite a bit of money on a swimsuit at a store in a different country, or worse, a hotel gift shop, where you have limited options and a high price tag. Check out our mix and match swimwear (link 2) to find the best swimsuits for summer!
- Toiletries: Depending on your accommodation, you may not need to bring all your toiletries. Hotels usually provide shower gel, shampoo, and conditioner, but if you're renting a place, you'll need to pack these items yourself. Regardless of where you stay, remember to bring any additional necessities like contact lenses and solution, toothpaste, toothbrush, floss, mouthwash, facial cleansers, razors, hairspray, brushes, deodorant, sunscreen, hand sanitizer, hair tools, and makeup.
- Shoes: When packing for a trip, choose neutral shoes that can be worn with multiple outfits to save space. Bring a pair of hiking boots or sneakers for physical activities and heels or wedges for dinner. If you’ll be hitting the beach or pool, some comfortable slides are always a good idea – shop our accessories page to see our options. Packing minimally and focusing on versatility will help keep your luggage light!
- Medications: If you take medication, make sure you pack enough for your trip. You'll also want to bring pain and cold/allergy meds, and any supplements or vitamins you take.
- Electronics and Chargers: If you are packing an e-book reader, tablet, or laptop, make sure to pack the chargers for those along with your phone charger. If you plan on hiking or exercising, you may want to bring headphones or a watch.
Your getaway essentials will vary depending on your trip, but this is a good start to your packing list. Now that you’re armed with the perfect list, you're ready to embrace the sun and make unforgettable memories on your summer vacation. Whether you're lounging on sandy shores, trekking through lush landscapes, or immersing yourself in local culture, these summer getaway essentials will ensure you have a stress-free and fashionable vacation!
Trending: Peplum Tankinis That Look Good
With summer in full swing, it's time to show off those stunning curves and soak up the sun in style! And if you're on the hunt for a swimsuit that combines fashion and functionality, look no further than the peplum tankinis from Lime Ricki. Not only do these swimsuits come in a range of sizes to suit every body type, but they also offer a fantastic way to embrace the season while staying supported. In this post, we’ll explain why the peplum tankini is the ultimate plus size swimwear piece that’ll have you feeling comfortable and confident, no matter where you are!
What is a Peplum Tankini?
A peplum is a flared ruffle or extension of fabric attached to the waistline of a top, dress, or in this case, a tankini. Imagine a chic and playful ruffle that starts at your waist and gently flows outward, adding a touch of grace and charm to your swimwear. It's like a built-in accessory that not only looks fantastic but also serves a purpose. The peplum's strategic placement does wonders in accentuating your waist while offering some coverage around the belly area. It's all about embracing your curves, feeling comfortable, and looking stylish at the same time.
Now, let's talk about the magic touch a peplum flare brings to our tankinis. If you have a love-hate relationship with your belly area, peplum is about to become your new best friend. The cleverly designed peplum ruffle around the waist adds a playful and flirty flair to the swimsuit, while also providing some extra coverage. Whether you want to conceal a little belly pooch or simply prefer a more flowy silhouette, our peplum tankinis have got you covered.
