Swimming is one of the most fun activities you can enjoy during the summer months. Whether it's at the pool or beach, it keeps you fit and allows you to show of your style rocking your designer swim shorts or bikini. The only challenge comes in laying your hands on stylish and authentic swimwear tha's perfect for you. To help you out, here are a few tips to finding designer swimwear this summer.

1. Make google your friend
Most swim short designers advertise their products online. As such, a quick google search for designer swimwear should give you list of designers in your region. To ensure that you get the best deal online, go for a designer that has good reviews from people that bought from them in the past. Some of the key factors to consider when checking such reviews include the quality of their products, and the speed of delivery. The last thing you want is to order swimwear only for it to be delivered way after the time when you needed it.

2. Ask your friends for help
We all have that one friend who knows a thing or two about designer wear. Ask them for help in finding designer swimwear, and they will direct you to some of the best designers they know. They can also give you advice on the qualities to look for in such items. You will be surprised at how much difference such advice can make, between buying a knock-off and a genuine designer wear that gives you value for your money.

3. Don’t focus on the price
When most people think of designer wear, the first thing that comes to mind is the price. However, this is a big mistake. When shopping for designer swimwear, don’t assume that the more expensive it is, the better it is. Interrogate the seller on why the price is set at the level they have set it. On top of that, check the quality of the materials used to make those garments. By doing this, you will buy a good quality swimwear and at the right price.

4. Go shopping in the big cities
In case you don’t want to shop online, you can visit designer shops, and check out whatever swimwear they have on sale. However, this is most convenient if you live in a big city. Most top-tier designers tend to limit their physical stores to a few large cities. For instance, if you live in Australia, you would have to visit a city like Sydney or Canberra for you to access a variety of designer stores.

5. Talk to designers in your locality
When most people think of designer wear, the first thing that comes to mind are the big international names. However, many people fail to realize that they are surrounded by designers all around them. They may even be your friends and relatives. Ask them to design swimwear just for you. You will be surprised at how many talented designers we bypass, while chasing the big names.
