Swim season's key silhouette is the maillot, the shape that works for every shape, from long to lean to everything in between. A bold claim, to be sure, but the covered-up alternative to the, ahem, overexposed bikini has an inarguable, universally appealing simplicity. (And even if it doesn't bare swaths of skin, that doesn't make it less youthful or sexy. How seductive is leaving something to the imagination?) It's the details that give the one-piece a chameleon-like versatility. With the swimsuit down, plus the beach-worthy essentials (including a few under $50) assembled here, we've got you covered.
