The recently released Zimmermann Swim SS12 Collection for women is full of fun, flirty and feminine styles. The collection is complete with a wide range of gorgeous poolside attire including one pieces, [bikinis, cover-ups and hats](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/salty-mermaid).

The Zimmermann Swim SS12 Collection also features plenty of [playful prints](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/stoney-clover-lane-x-roller-rabbit) that cannot technically be classified into one theme. The overall [Malibu](https://www.trendhunter.com/trends/madhappy-x-keen)-inspired theme of this collection, however, has a little something to suit every woman's style. Whether you're looking for something simple and delicate such as the line's dainty, floral-printed one-piece, or something a little more daring such as the backless black one-piece, this Malibu-inspired collection will keep you looking stylish and sexy. Whether you don these suits on the beach or by the pool, this collection is worthy of a double take.
