Wildfox’s premiere Swim 2012 collection draws inspiration from bombshells of the past including the unforgettable Brigitte Bardot, Marylin Monroe and Raquel Welch. The range is colored with lovely seventies light pastels, white and blue denim, dainty floral prints, Wildfox-classic neon pinks and bright red. The designers channel dreamy, romantic stories of the west, female villains like Bonnie of Bonnie and Clyde, and sixties beach movies like Gidget and Elvis Presley’s Beach Party.
Any girl in a Wildfox suit is a heroine in her own story, stealing hearts on the beach left and right. Retro silhouettes with an updated modern fit reinvent the one piece, high waist bikini and classic string bikini with whimsical prints and ultra-feminine ruffled elements. The debut Wildfox Swim collection is a nod to the fun and power of being a girl – especially with a tan.

Congrats girls :)
Fresh outfits, sweet model. Original, out of the box.
Love it!
Ooh lala, these swimsuits are so dreamy and doable!
All of them are definitely wish-list material.
Loving the highwaist bikini especially, so 60s! Been looking for one.
I think it's about time people start wearing swimsuits like these, triangle bikinis are so boring.
Too bad it's winter here in Australia, definitely can start stocking up for summeeerrrrrr '011!
hahahahaha, i thought it said "raping cattle"
also, you can see mr. cobrasnakes foot in the picnic bench shot.
