Shadow Play NYC designs flattering one-pieces with a galactic vibe.

[Skimpy bikinis](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/shaping-swimwear) may be the norm nowadays, but that doesn't mean that there aren't some amazing [full-piece options](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/onewith-x-claire-buckley) out there. If you'd prefer to keep your mid-section covered, don't fret! You aren't doomed to be the frump of the beach -- at least not with Shadow Play NYC's out-of-this-world designs.

The space (bathing) suits are perfect for anyone who loves star-gazing or is interested in [space travel](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/ready-set-jet). But actually, you don't have to be into any of those things, because they honestly just look stupid-cool and will surely get you a lot of attention at the pool/beach/music festival you're attending this summer.
