Summer is practically knocking on our doors, and you know what that means—it’s time to get your hands on the perfect swimsuit! Whether you’re a beach babe, a pool party enthusiast or just a sun-worshipper, the perfect swimwear is an absolute must-have.

And while it’s always a good time to support Black-owned businesses, Black History Month is an extra special moment to show some love to this community. Luckily, there are plenty of Black-owned swimwear lines that offer unique and stunning swimsuits to choose from.

No matter what your style is—whether you’re a fan of a string bikini, thong bikini, full coverage, or a classic one-piece—these brands have got you covered (or uncovered if you know what I mean). So without further ado, here are some of our absolute favorite Black-owned swimwear lines to check out this season.
