August 04, 2021 at 08:39PM This year, there’s a desire for swimsuits and an urge to shop fresh trends like never before. That could be because we spent a good chunk of quarantine laying low around the house in our “swimwear-turned-loungewear,” as we liked to call it, and we’re committed to that vibe wholeheartedly.

If you love girlie suits, try out a smocked bikini with pouf sleeves, and if you’re sporty, you’ll love the lace-up designs we’ve gathered below. If you…

In a stroke of stylistic genius, she also added a gold chain anklet to her left…

[One day] she said, ‘Tomorrow, we will have an inclusive fashion show [with] Tyra Banks, Kimora Simmons, and we’re going to have all body types.’ I was so excited. I was like, 'OK, I definitely have to be home for this.’ I was home for that, and I noticed they left out people with disabilities, and that’s when it dawned on me: I have to go directly to fashion brands to get them on board. That was 2003,” Stephanie told me when we spoke on the phone. As a congenital amputee, Stephanie herself…
