Six Ugly Swimsuits To Avoid This Summer

Some swimsuits should just never be seen on a sunlit beach. Whether the pattern just doesn’t work or the cut is less than flattering, it’s remarkably easy to create a shockingly ugly swimming suit.

So what bathing suits should you steer clear of? Try to avoid the enlarged photos of animals, plaid, pictures of flesh-eating ghouls … well, you get the gist. For a visual explanation, scroll down.

Even if you really, really love cats you should veer away from this cat-astrophe. From a few years back, this Fiorucci bathing suit of a growling baby tiger is the thing of nightmares.

It’s Zombie Time!

What lady wouldn’t want her bathing suit to invoke images of brain-craving zombies? Safe to say probably not that many. This Iron Fist zombie bikini looks like it may be the work of that guy who illustrated The Walking Dead books.

Ready To Fight Crime? Anyone?

While more of their stuff is pretty fab, this Go Get Retro swimsuit looks more Wonder Woman than vintage vixen. If you already bought it . . . pair it with a lasso and save it for Halloween.

Is That a Lumberjack?

Walking a thin line between cute and heinous, this vintage number almost pulled through. Despite the unique lines, the heavy pattern falls flat. Unless you have always wanted to be a lumberjack.

For The Hoody Dependent

Hood optional. Bet you never thought you would hear that in reference to a bathing suit. The Fashion Police featured this suit last season. An interesting idea, but think of the awkward tan lines!
