Baywatch is back, and you know what that means. Lots of David Hasselhoff on TV and a barrage of bright red spandex coming to a beach/pool/picnic near you. It just so happens that this sequel movie (appropriately called Baywatch and starring, er, Dwayne Johnson and Zac Efron—what?) has aligned with fashion's current penchant for the scarlet bathing suit. Take a quick scan of the e-commerce landscape and you'll find there's a red suit to suit all—whether you're after a classic, high-cut, Pamela Anderson–worthy Baywatch-inspired swimsuit or in search of a more elegant, off-the-shoulder silhouette.

Weekday Day Swimsuit (£20)

Undoubtedly the best on a budget.

Hunza G Coco Swimsuit (£100)

If you want to go full 1980s, this is the one.

& Other Stories V-Neck Swimsuit (£45)

This will be such a comfortable style to lounge around the pool in.

Araks Jireh Swimsuit (£240)

Full coverage can still be very alluring.

Karla Colletto New Wave Swimsuit (£227)

Karla Colletto's swimsuits are pricey, but the fabric technology and cuts result in something so flattering.

Mara Hoffman Lace-Up Swimsuit (£250)

Talk about a detail du jour—there are lace-up swimsuits everywhere at the moment.

Norma Kamali Mio Swimsuit (£580)

Norma is the A-list go-to for that ultra-high leg cut.

Solid & Striped The Jennifer One Piece (£130)

Not great for tan lines but very great for making a splash.

Love Stories Sue Bathing Suit (£115)

This is a cute new label to reach the UK.
