Warm-weather wardrobes tend to revolve around a handful of pieces that can move between beach, terrace, and evening without a wardrobe change. Susamusa (UK)‘s summer edit leans into that idea, pairing swimwear with layering tops and dresses built from the same design language. Among the standout summer bikini styles this season is the Evil Eye Bikini range, which brings symbolic beadwork into a practical two-piece format.
The Evil Eye Bikini Range: Hand-Blown Beads and Symbol Protection
The Evil Eye Bikini is built around glass evil eye beads, each one individually hand-blown in Istanbul. Susamusa frames the detail as a nod to protection against bad energy, worked directly into a wearable garment. The pieces are made in London from a nylon and elastane blend, which gives the swimwear its shape and stretch.
Care instructions are specific to the beadwork. Susamusa (UK) advises rinsing the bikini after exposure to chlorine or salt water and recommends cold hand washing only. That level of detail suggests the beads are treated as a genuine design feature rather than a decorative afterthought, and it separates this collection from plainer summer bikini styles sold elsewhere.
Triangle and Keyhole Top Styles in the Evil Eye Collection
Two top silhouettes anchor the collection. The Silver Triangle and Black Triangle tops offer a classic triangle cut finished with the hand-blown beads along the trim. For those who prefer more structure, the Black Keyhole and Silver Keyhole tops add an adjustable keyhole opening at the front.
Both keyhole options are adjustable, which allows the fit to be loosened or tightened depending on preference. Susamusa lists the triangle and keyhole tops in matching silver and black colourways, so the two silhouettes can be mixed within the same tonal palette. This gives shoppers a choice between a softer triangle line and a slightly more secured keyhole shape, without stepping outside the Evil Eye theme.
Brief and Thong Options for Customizable Summer Combinations
The bottoms follow the same beadwork theme as the tops. The Evil Eye Bikini Brief comes as a tie-up style in black and silver, while the Evil Eye Bikini Thong is also offered in both colourways. Each bottom carries the same hand-blown glass beads used across the tops, keeping the detailing consistent across a full look.
- The Silver Triangle top can be paired with either the Evil Eye Bikini Brief in silver or the Evil Eye Bikini Thong in silver for a tonal match.
- The Black Keyhole top works alongside the Evil Eye Bikini Brief in black for a fuller coverage combination.
- A Black Triangle top can be swapped onto the silver brief or silver thong for a two-tone finish.
- The Silver Keyhole top pairs with the black thong for a contrast look across the same collection.
- Tops and bottoms within the range are sold separately, which allows a top from one colourway to be layered with a bottom from the other.
Because the tops and bottoms are sold as separate pieces, the combinations above are only a starting point. Susamusa (UK)‘s structure means the triangle, keyhole, brief, and thong pieces can be rearranged repeatedly across a single holiday without ever repeating the exact same pairing twice.
Layering Summer Pieces: The Sienna Shirt and Aidan Top
Beyond the swimwear, two pieces stand out for layering over a bikini or wearing into the evening. The Sienna Shirt is made from deadstock lace and can be worn open over a bikini or buttoned up with nothing underneath. It features french cuffs and vintage shell buttons, and is offered in both ivory and black lace.
The Aidan Top takes a different approach, built from a silky chiffon overlay that falls just below the waist. Its asymmetric neckline and lightweight fabric make it suited to warmer days when a heavier layer would feel out of place. Together, the Sienna Shirt and Aidan Top give the Evil Eye Bikini pieces something to transition into once the swimwear portion of the day is done.
Transitional Dresses for Warm-Weather Occasions
Susamusa (UK)‘s dress offering extends the same seasonal logic into evening wear. The Camelia Dress reimagines the classic slip shape with ruffle detailing and comes in black and ivory. The Arki Dress, cut on the bias with split sleeves and ruched detailing at the bust, is available in both black and silver.
These dresses are not described as swimwear, but they sit within the same seasonal range, built for warm-weather occasions that follow a beach day. A ruched waist on the Agni Skirt, for instance, can be worn cinched or left loose, offering a similar flexibility to the way the bikini tops and bottoms can be recombined.
Confidence Through Timeless Silhouettes
Susamusa describes its overall approach as timeless silhouettes designed to make the wearer feel confident. That positioning runs through the swimwear as much as the lace shirts and chiffon tops, since each piece is built to be reused across more than one setting. The Evil Eye Bikini in particular ties a decorative, symbolic detail to a functional swim garment, rather than treating the two as separate concerns.
Shoppers exploring summer bikini styles this season will find that the range leans on mix-and-match construction. Separate tops and bottoms, adjustable keyhole fastenings, and layering pieces in lace and chiffon all point toward a wardrobe built around combination rather than a single fixed look.
That flexibility, more than any single piece, is what carries Susamusa (UK)‘s summer line through a season of changing plans and changing weather.
