Vintage Inspired | Rudi Gernreich Meets Hayden-Harnett Monokini


hayden harnett monokini Hayden-Harnett has just sent out their summer shopping newsletter. My eye popped with vintage excitement when I saw this very chic, very vintage inspired monokini. The bold, mod cutouts and plunging V neck give this swimsuit equal parts glamour and sexy edge. I can only imagine that the design team at Hayden-Harnett loves the genius and scandalous Rudi Gernreich as much as I do. Genius for creating swimsuits look like the equivalent of the little black dress. Scandalous for making a completely topless bathing suit. The Hayden-Harnett swimsuit is such a fabulous modern twist on an iconic classic. This suit is definitely on my summer must have list.
