Interested in which cover-ups and overswim pieces are the most popular right now? This is the post for you! These top 5 pieces are the swim cover ups that we seem to sell out of and most often have to re-order. Of course, black, white, cream, and other neutrals are generally the most sought after but it’s always nice to see new colours worked into the mix and we try to add fashion colours to our collections for some variety. In this list you’ll see some pieces that embrace current trends like crochet and linen textures as well as classics like caftan silhouettes and button down beach shirts, both of which are absolute staples in our vacation wardrobes! Have a look and see if your favourite piece made the cut!
Playa Linen Boyfriend Shirt
This one may seem obvious as it tops so many of our “best of” lists but you can’t beat a classic! We’ve said it before and we’ll say it again, everyone should own at least 2 of these beach shirts! The cut, the fit, the fabric, everything about it is perfection. And they’re not just great as a swimsuit cover up, we wear ours all year round! They look great tucked into jeans, tied at the waist with shorts, the outfit possibilities are endless. As an added bonus, this button down shirt is made by the innovative folks at Vitamin A so it’s eco- friendly and sustainably produced. The fabric is 100% Linen and is 100% biodegradable.

Santorini Crochet Tunic
Ok we’ve come to the point in the post where things get a bit sexier! This true vacation must-have is the Santorini Crochet Tunic from Koy Resort.

Designed with intricate open-knit crochet, this breezy beach cover-up effortlessly blends that always cool, bohemian elegance with modern ease. The relaxed silhouette, and delicate detailing make it the perfect layering piece over your favorite swimsuit, offering just the right amount of coverage while keeping things stylish.

Miami Big Shirt
Yes, that’s right, there are two button down beach shirts on this list and frankly that’s no surprise to us! You may be noticing a trend here but it shouldn’t shock anyone that these picks are universally flattering and this one is no exception! The Miami Big Shirt from Koy Resort is designed with a relaxed, oversized fit and crafted from a versatile 100% crinkle rayon so it’s lightweight and easy to pack!
