In tradition fashion, the [Urban Outfitters](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/swimwear-redefined) swimwear 2013 collection shows off its hottest [bikini styles](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/country-club) in a carefree manner.

From polka dots to neon fruit printed bikinis, the pieces are full of [bold and bright patterns](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/pendleton-swim-and-beach) as well as fringes. The silhouettes also range from bandeau style to monokinis to suit a variety of different tastes.The shoot is given the sense that the models are enjoying their summer vacation where they can enjoy hanging poolside and not having to have a care in the world other then getting a nice tan. The models are seen posing with some eccentric blow-up toys including one in the shape of a doughnut and a massive pink limousine floatie. The looks wouldn't be nearly complete without some fabulous retro sunglasses and headgear including hats, flower crowns and hairbands.

For those needing a bit of inspiration for swimsuit season, be sure to take a cue from the Urban Outfitters Swimwear collection.
