When it comes to fashion, everything old is new again. Celebs have been loving trends from the early 2000s—from thong pants to crop tops. And swimwear is no different—the skimpy bikinis of the ‘80s and ‘90s are back with a vengeance but celebs have been taking it to another level with the 2020s version. When we saw the hologram string bikini Amelia Gray Hamlin just posted on Instagram, we were shook by how revealing it is!
Judging by this swimsuit alone, Amelia Gray is a big proponent of “less is more.” The 20-year-old model took to Instagram on January 10th to share a roundup of her latest snaps—including California beach time and some delicious-looking pasta. Captioned, “loveyousomuch” the brunette babe’s post got 24k likes from her 1.1m followers. But we’re pretty sure all the love from her followers was directed at the snap of the model in that very revealing hologram string bikini! The side boob was major! We thought her last bikini snap was out of this world, but we’re loving the metallic fabric of this one even more. And it seems that celebs are big fans of space-inspired looks—with Ariana Grande also sporting the trend in promotional snaps for r.e.m. beauty.
As for racy bikinis, 2021 saw celebs trying skimpier and skimpier varieties. We might just be a few weeks into the new year, but the string bikini trend is showing no signs of fading into the past. Candice Swanepoel recently shared a red hot string bikini post that left her followers speechless. And Kourtney Kardashian left almost nothing to the imagination in the barely-there two-piece she wore on vacay with Travis Barker.
Plus, Addison Rae is proving to be a bikini queen in her own right—this one was so revealing we couldn’t believe it got past the IG censors.
