Thirty years of Swimsuit means we’ve seen some varying looks and style over the years. Since this is our 30th Anniversary, we wanted to show you how looks have (and haven’t) changed since 1987.

Use the arrows to click left and right.

Then: Catamarans

While models graced these two boats, they did provide an additional splash of color to the blue water and sky at Playa Largo Resort & Spa.

Then: Three’s a Crowd

Swimsuit 1987These suits take it back! The suit on left is by Anne Cole, suits center and right: La Blanca. Both are still making swimwear 30 years later!

Now: Three is always better than one
