Japanese Bikini Trends For Summer!

Hey guys sorry i haven't been posting but i have new Gyaru (Japanese fashion) Trends for summer!!! 

It’s the perfect time to discuss bathing suit trends in gyaru. Specifically bikinis (ビキニ)because most Japanese swimwear companies do 99% bikinis and a tankini or so. Don’t expect one-pieces from these brands! However if you’re a onepiece lover you can still take these trends and transfer them over to that style.
The four big trends to talk about with Japanese Swimwear especially gyaru swimwear are: paisley/ethnic, ruffles, floral and adult monotone.



                         Another trend for summer is BRIGHT makeup

So many styles to choose from! Paisley is the biggest trend by far.
I usually end up going with a floral, but the adult monotone styles are really stylish and flattering, especially the Lip Service one.  :heartcat:
The two big swimwear companies are Peak & Pine (ピークアンドパイン) which has pop-up shops in all the gyaru malls right now (Nagoya Marui, Osaka OPA, Kagoshima OPA) also a permanent store in Shibuya 109 and Rienda Suelta (リエンダ・スエルタ), Rienda’s lingerie brand with a full catalog of swimwear.
Check out both their catalogs

Site model makeup & hair (Dacey loxx)

HAIR: Dacey has side swept bangs and layers, so ask your stylist for that if you want to re-create her look.
acey also has a shine to her hair, which is amazing because it doesn't look greasy. for a shine like hers i recommend: http://www.ulta.com/ulta/browse/productDetail.jsp?skuId=2126038&productId=VP11232&navAction=push&navCount=1&categoryId=cat120008&CAWELAID=202388833  








MAKEUP: dacey wears liquid eyeliner, black eyeliner pencil, nude lipstick, and a bronzer because i have seen her natural color and its not as tan as these pictures.
