Summer holidays await us; the time to start thinking about beach attire is now. And this season, the one-piece has made a comeback. No need to bare all, just enough to get some sun. You’ll want something that will look good while you swim in the ocean, just as much as it will drinking cocktails poolside.

Looking to swimwear brands we trust for design and quality, we pick the top four of the season.

Lisa Maria Fernandez Farrah Maillot Bonded Swimsuit, £303, matchesfashion.com & Prism Forte Dei Marmi in charcoal, £190, prismlondon.com

Ephemera Noir Split One Piece, £149, ephemeralive.com & La Perla Dunes Swimsuit, £238, laperla.com

To capture their AW14 collection and to celebrate their 60 years, La Perla called upon Mert & Marcus to shoot behind the scenes. With creative direction from Fabien Baron, the video features top models Maria Carla Boscono, Liu Wen and Daria Strokous, who offer us an intimate insight into their feelings on being protagonists in a global international campaign, as well as their thoughts on the importance of feeling empowered in lingerie.
