This one shows the white Dottie Dash 'Sup hat and Pow Pink swim items. I like the Dottie Dash, too, but a I don't want to deal with keeping a white brim clean. I really hope we're going to see Pow clothes.
Jeweled Magenta On the Daily Hoodie and Heat Wave Jet Crops. I saw this On the Daily in the store today and really wish it was solid JM, the heathered just mutes the color too much for me.

Surf to Sand One Piece and Surf Short. I really love the Surf Short in this print.
Salty Swim Racer Top. This is advertised as being for D cup ladies so I'd love to see this modeled on a bustier woman. Even the website did not show it on a D. That little tie in the back and the band along the bottom doesn't look like it gives much support so I suppose you better be a perky D.
More Sun Runner LS, Tank, and Sweat 2 Swim Water Short photos.
I don't know if I've posted about these before but the men have Metal Vent Tech polo shirts now. I think this is a great idea and one that lululemon should use for women for their golf line. A sleeveless or short sleeve polo Swiftly would be perfect for golf.

I realize we've bashed the swimwear enough, but it's so brave of these beautiful women to model these not-so-beautiful swimwear items. There's no way I would model those pieces and have a picture taken!
i'm surprised those tearaway pants stayed on like that - I had them "tear" open when I was trying them on and moving around the dressing room! wardrobe malfunction waiting to happen. so sad since I loved the print...
These ladies are so fit! I'm wondering what kinds of workouts they do. CrossFit, maybe? Anyway, they make these suits look great!
have to say, these ladies rock a swim line that leaves a lot to be desired. I tried on the salty swim top and I'm an a/b.....and the band/tie were so thin there was no support and a lot of shape show-thru! After 3 years of lackluster swim, do you think Lulu could figure out active women want good looking support and even when fit, some COVERAGE?
The swim line flattens the chest and reveals the rear..... Not very tasteful.
Lulu needs to let go of their swim design team... Next!
Dear LLA,
Thanks for your incredible updates
& informative blog. I also really like when you do comparisons..such as your most recent direct comparison of the sun runner tank & sculpt tank.
May I ask are bonded seams (at the shirt hem )problematic in terms of durability or cause a shirt to roll up? I just received a sea-me singlet that has bonded seams. I'm on the fence on keeping it, so if the bonded seams can potentially cause problems..it will be the deal breaker for me.
I dislike bonded seams on run shorts in the past b/c of durablity but don't have the experience with the tank hem being bonded. TIA!
LLA, Thank you for your most recent comparison of the sun runner tank vs. the sculpt tank.
May I ask does a bonded bottom tank/shirt hem cause problems in terms of durabiity or rolling up.
I dislike bonded hems on run shorts in the past, but am inexperienced with the bottom shirt hem being bonded.
I am on the fence of keeping a sea-me singlet (with a bonded tank hem) so this may be the deal breaker for me.
TIA!
@ anon 8:17 pm - I have bonded seams on the some of the swimwear I bought last year and I think it's ok in terms of durability. I just didn't like how it made the hem feel kind of stiff on the bottom of this tank.
8:13/8:17 must mean raw edge "hems". the sea me singlet is not bonded I'm pretty sure. I have several raw-edge tops....the sea-me singlet and the water bound tanks from last year and have not had any problem at all. they're some of my fav hot weather and gym tanks. love that swim material. I do have a bonded hem top, can't remember name of it and the hem is really stiff and slightly rough. I find it catching on luon bottoms or crbs.
I have yet to see the What The Sport singlet actually look good. On anybody. These ladies are super fit yet it still bunches weird in the back and hugs the middle in an odd-ish sort of unflattering way. So sad that they chose to make this vs keeping their 105's. The old 105's with the scalloped edges.
@ anon 3:42 pm - I agree. I really dislike the What the Sport. Lots of the photos show a duck tail - the back flip ups on the girls. It's so sad because I like the new iridescent material a lot.
@Heather c- my raw edge water bound singlets roll up a little at the bottom but it's not too bad.
3:42 I have a few 105F from the old ones with the scalloped edges to the latest, and I also have 2 what the sport singlets, and I always grab for the what the sport.
I prefer the what the sport to the 105F, the fit works better for me, the 105 even in the smallest size fits like a size up and is too long on me, maybe because I am really petite.
I know a lot of people prefer the 105F and hope it is not discontinued.

The girls modeling the swim wear have rocking bodies and all look great, but I'm sorry the whole line is awful!
