Finding the right swimsuit can be a task. From body type to fabric, cut and style, there’s a lot to factor in when shopping for swimwear.
Can you even swim in a crochet bikini? You can certainly try, but crochet bikinis are probably better for making a fashion statement than taking a dip — and celebs have taken notice. Dua Lipa, who loves rocking crochet clothing, was spotted in a checkered crochet bikini in Miami last year, while Euphoria’s Sydney Sweeney struck a pose in a Mao London Lili crochet bikini during a 2022 beachside photoshoot.
But it’s not just swimwear. Olivia Rodrigo sported a crochet look on the cover of Variety in 2021, Miley Cyrus has worn crochet multiple times, and Solange is no stranger to the crochet trend.
Provided that you don’t have the time (or the patience) to make your own crochet bikini, we’ve done some of the searching for you and rounded up some of the hottest crochet bikinis, coverups, dresses, and tops that you can buy online — without spending a fortune. And most of the items can be worn on the beach or to Coachella, Lollapalooza and other music festivals and outdoor concerts.
Below, find a list of crochet bikinis and cover-ups for stylish shoppers on a budget. For more recommendations, read our roundup of the best slides for summer and best sunglasses under $25.
