Where to Buy Bathing Suits in Manhattan
New York City may be known as the concrete jungle but that is no moratorium on the beach-y fun of summertime activities. Posh rooftops, vast green spaces, and nearby beaches become it-spots for sun worshippers all over the city. In fact once temperatures rise and the bulky layers of winter shed off, New Yorkers take the opportunity to wear as little clothing as possible. In a cool, fashionable way of course. So don’t fret if you’ve found yourself at the Knick without a trendy swimsuit in tow, for we have compiled a list of designer and international boutiques around town that are sure to provide a perfect fit. Here’s where to buy bathing suits in Manhattan.
