Baroque & Dark Beachwear 2026: Damask Swimsuits, Gold and Black Lace 🖤

Damask one-piece swimsuits: the baroque signature

If there's one piece that sums up the whole style, it's the damask one-piece. The baroque print — golden scrolls, symmetrical ornaments, that dark ground that makes the gold stand out — becomes something surprisingly elegant on a one-piece. The reason is optical: a rich, symmetrical pattern draws the eye towards the centre of the body, and this has a natural slimming effect that no solid-colour swimsuit can replicate.

The Barock one-piece is the reference piece: padded rigid cups that structure the neckline and Brazilian-cut legs, in a dense baroque print that works like a dress. It's a swimsuit that stands on its own — dark glasses are all you need and you're dressed.

Alongside it, three variations. The Barocco Josa one-piece goes for a more graphic, high-contrast print; the Barokko one-piece adds the open back with ties, for those who want a touch of skin without revealing the front; and the Body trasparent roses takes the theme towards lace, with sheer tulle and embroidery that is baroque in its purest form. You'll find them all among the One-piece swimsuits and monokinis.

The key piece

Barock one-piece

Dense baroque print, padded rigid cups that structure the neckline, Brazilian-cut legs. It's the swimsuit that does all the work on its own: the pattern is so rich that any addition becomes superfluous.

Wear it with oversized glasses and flat gold sandals. Under an open solid-colour kimono it becomes an aperitivo look with no need to change.

Baroque bikinis: gold, chains and stones

On the two-piece, baroque splits into two souls, and both are worth knowing. There's the golden soul — gold trims, metal details, sequins — and there's the dark soul, made of chains and jewelled fastenings. The beauty is that they coexist in the same piece more often than you'd think.

The Domino bikini is the manifesto of the dark soul: chains at the neck and waist that structure the swimsuit like a wearable piece of jewellery. It's sexy and architectural at once — the chains aren't a stuck-on ornament, they're the structure. A piece that doesn't go unnoticed for even a second.

On the golden side, the Golden Wayar bikini has an underwired push-up band with gold trims, also available in black and fuchsia; the Iolanda heart bikini plays on the heart-shaped neckline with a rigid cup in a warm gold variant; and the Winy sequin bikini brings sequins with metal details, in as many as six colours including gold and black. For those who love pure metallics, the baroque-print bikini and the gold styles of the Two-piece bikinis collection remain a solid choice.

The dark soul

Domino bikini

Chains at the neck and waist: the bikini that is already a piece of jewellery. The chain structure holds and shapes at the same time, turning a two-piece into a cover-worthy piece.

It's a swimsuit that asks for confidence and gives it back. Keep it the star: no added necklaces, the metal you need is already on.

The coordinated look: swimsuit plus kimono

There's a shortcut to wearing baroque without thinking about combinations, and it's the coordinated set. Swimsuit and cover-up in the same print, designed together: it's the most elegant solution and, paradoxically, the easiest. The styling work is already done — all that's left is for you to wear it.

The Baroque monokini + kimono set pairs a monokini with a long baroque satin kimono: on the shoreline it's a swimsuit, open over trousers it becomes an evening outfit. The satin, in particular, is what makes the difference — it falls with a weight that technical fabric doesn't have, turning the kimono from a cover-up into a proper garment.

The Hermed baroque swimsuit + cover-up variant, instead, goes for a low-cut one-piece paired with its coordinated kimono, for a more couture effect. In both cases you're buying two pieces you already know look good together, which is worth far more than the sum of the individual pieces. You'll find more among the kimonos and tops.

Two pieces, one look

Baroque monokini + kimono set

Monokini plus long satin kimono, same baroque print. The satin falls with a weight no technical fabric has: it's the reason this set works even far from the water.

On the beach it's a swimsuit; over linen trousers, open, it becomes a complete aperitivo outfit. A single purchase, zero outfit changes.

Black cover-ups: lace, lamé and openwork

If the swimsuits carry the gold, the baroque cover-ups carry the black — and it's a black that works on transparency. Lace, lamé, openwork: fabrics that cover and reveal at once, which is exactly the game baroque has always loved. The peek-a-boo effect isn't a contemporary invention, it's a seventeenth-century principle.

The Key West Dress is a sheer lace cover-up with a wide sleeve, available in black and white: over a solid-colour swimsuit it becomes a beach dress with an evening dignity of its own. The Lovpi openwork cover-up dress lengthens the line with long sleeves and an open back, in an openwork that falls softly to the feet.

For the most dramatic side there's the Taghy lamé cover-up: lamé with peek-a-boo fringing, in black and gold, that becomes a spectacle at the slightest movement. It's the cover-up you notice from afar — and that at sunset, in the raking light, does exactly what it was born to do.

Sheer black

Key West Dress

Sheer lace cover-up with a wide sleeve, in black and white. Over a solid-colour swimsuit it's a cover-up; on its own, with the right lingerie underneath, it's almost a dress.

Black lace is the most elegant way to be daring: it covers and reveals in the same gesture. Wear it with flat sandals and hair pulled up.

The Darkness line and the baroque dresses

Baroque is completed by jewellery — and this is where the Darkness line comes in, the collection of body accessories in black stones and rhinestones designed to be worn over the swimsuit or in place of part of it. It's not costume jewellery to match absent-mindedly: it's the cherry on top of the baroque-dark look.

The Darkness body jewel is the most dramatic piece: large stones and rhinestones covering the neckline, in six colour variants. Worn over a black one-piece it's the complete cover look. The Darkness Collier and the Darkness Necklace — the latter with a black-stone cross over the chest — are the more wearable versions, while the Darkness bra in rhinestones acts as a jewelled top in its own right. The whole line is in Women's Accessories.

And for the real after-beach. The baroque print doesn't end with the swimsuit: it continues on the coordinated dresses. The Baroque Maxidress carries the golden scrolls on a long, elegant line, the Baroque Minidress compacts them into a bold mini, and the Topshorts Barock set renders them in a coordinated top and shorts. The perfect way to take the beach into the city. You'll find them among the boutique's dresses and mini dresses.

The finishing touch

Darkness body jewel

Large stones and rhinestones on the neckline, in six colour variants. It's not an accessory to add: it's a piece in its own right, turning a black swimsuit into an evening look.

Wear it over a solid-colour one-piece and take everything else off. A jewel of this scale allows no competition on the body.
