Summer’s coming up, and I simply had to share this bikini set from the new Sauvage Été collection by Sueur Swim. I think I first discovered Sueur Swim – an independent swimwear label by Natalie Le Sueur – via an Instagram ad back in late autumn 2025, and I was hooked from the start.
The summer before, shopping for my first ‘proper’ holiday in quite a while, I’d really struggled to find swimwer I liked which weren’t 200€+ (and since I don’t go to the beach or pool very often, I wasn’t willing to pay that much). So when this brand’s Vacance swimsuit popped up on my feed, something I genuinely loved and which I discovered was on sale for less than 70€, I knew I’d absolutely regret not buying it even though it would be ages until I had an occasion to wear it.
I still haven’t, though we do have a trip to Ibiza planned for September. But I’ve tried it on and I can happily say that it’s fanastic quality, and if I were someone who found myself by the sea more often, I wouldn’t hesitate to add more Sueur Swim to my wardrobe.
But onto the point of this article: the Solaire bikini. The entire Sauvage Été collection is stunning, but I was instantly drawn to the oversized, jewel-tipped hardware of this bikini. I’m a sucker for anything with gold jewellery details, beautiful stones or a bit of shine to it, and this design combines all three. 
It’s also available in Black or White, which are both lovely, but this two-tone Pistachio / Emerald is particularly striking. I’d love to see it in a red/pink combination as well.
The only thing I don’t love about it, or about the Vacance swimsuit I bought, is the thong back because personally I prefer more coverage. But if what I saw at the beaches in Sardinia last year are anything to go by, that’s just overwhelmingly the trend right now. And I did see something on the designer’s Instagram a while ago about fuller backs being in the works, so don’t rule this brand out just yet if that’s a deal-breaker for you.
The Solaire bikini is available in sizes XS-XL and costs 78.95€ for the top and 53.95€ for the bottom. Although the brand is based in Australia, they have local shipping for the EU (and possibly the UK, I’m not sure) so you won’t need to pay customs. These pieces are technically on pre-order, but they ship out just a couple of days from now so you won’t be waiting long.
Before I go, a quick shout-out to the Ce Soir swimsuit too, which I would definitely be tempted by if it weren’t that I already have one swimsuit I haven’t even worn yet!
