Red is the loudest colour you can wear in the water, and the one that photographs best against blue. It reads as confident rather than careful. So a red bikini is still the piece most women reach for on the beach. They want to stand out, not blend in.
Kate Kingdom makes three pieces in red: two bikinis and one one-piece. Also, it designs them near Zurich and produces them in limited editions, never in mass runs.
The Talasa is the classic: a high-cut triangle string top with a 90s feel, cheeky at the back. If you like a simple shape, start here. The Attina is the cheeky two-piece. Its quick-drying fabric stretches to the perfect fit, and the cut suits poolside rather than laps. Finally, the Classic is the one-piece. Baywatch-inspired, it has a small neckline at the back and thicker straps for support across the bust.
People search for this colour in different ways, depending on where they live. For example, some say red bikini, others red swimsuit, red bathing suit or simply red swimwear. In any case, this page has all of it: two red bikinis and one red one-piece. They all sit in the same colour family.
The fabrics are light, soft to the touch and stretch with the body rather than against it. So they dry quickly and hold their shape after salt water and sun. Available in sizes S to L. Rinse in cold water after swimming and dry flat, out of direct sunlight.
Kate Kingdom designs its swimwear near Zurich and ships from Switzerland. Shipping within Switzerland is free on orders over CHF 150. In addition, you can return any order within 30 days.
