Top 10 Sports Illustrated Swimsuits for Women

By , About.com Guide

Every winter Sports Illustrated publishes its much-awaited annual swimsuit issue, filled with tan, willowy models in poses that suggest they are equally adept at indoor sports.

Eye candy for many male readers, the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue also works as a shopping guide for women, cluing them in to the latest swim suits, bathing suits, bikinis, and thongs for the beach. Below are some of the best-looking beachwear brands appearing in Sports Illustrated's Swimsuit edition.

1. Luli Fama Swimsuits

Designer Luli Fama's swimsuits appear every year in the Sports Illustrated Swimsuit issue as well as on her Web site. Luli Fama's sexy, pretty, and ultra-hot bikinis offer buyers a choice of tops and bottoms. Warning: The sites' music is very loud, so turn down speakers before clicking.

2. Beach Bunny Swimsuits in Sports Illustrated

Beach Bunny swimsuits come in a variety of sexy styles, and some of the very sweetest have a lipstick-imprint pattern.

3. Becca Swim in Sports Illustrated

Designed for the woman who doesn't need over-the-top colors to attract attention, Becca swim bikinis are available in colors -- but not shapes -- you would find in a boardroom.

4. Elizabeth Hurley Beach Swimsuits in Sports Illustrated

In super shape, the British supermodel models her super bikini, one-piece, and tankini swimsuits.

Inspired by the beauty of Brazil's beaches and her people, Sauipe Swimwear takes a sophisticated, less-is-more approach to design.
