Plymouth dive stars try out the latest swimwear
WITH a month to go before their last big event of the year, Tonia Couch and Brooke Graddon managed to come out smiling for our fashion shoot, despite a heavy training schedule and a rainy afternoon.
The World Aquatics Championships will take place in Rome from July 18 to 25, where Tonia and Brooke, as well as Tom Daley will be competing in one of the few open air diving competitions.

Let’s hope the weather is better than it was for our photoshoot and we wish them all the best of luck!
For our swimwear shoot we used bold and colourful styles which is the key fashion trend for this summer with the more eye catching the outfit the better.
Swimwear means something different for every woman but luckily there is one out there for us all. And if you don’t feel confident flashing the flesh there are countless well fitted swimsuits and tankinis on the market.
Chunky necklaces, bracelets and big sunglasses are staple summer accessories, giving a showbiz finish to any swimwear outfit.
The high street is also the ideal place to bag a surf-style sarong. From short and bright to long and patterned, there are so many designs available with a sarong out there to fit every shape, size and budget.
So what are you waiting for? Grab yourself a show-stopping bikini and get out there and enjoy the summer sunshine.
But don’t forget your sunscreen – bright red bodies are a fashion no no.
