L*Space's Samba Bottom Is Doing the Macrame Thing Right

Macrame trim on a bikini bottom shouldn't work this hard, but here we are. The L*Space Samba Bottom is that rare swim piece that feels intentional without trying — the kind of detail that makes you actually want to wear the thing beyond the pool. The low-rise silhouette with side ties hits that perfect '90s nostalgia sweet spot we're all still riding, and the macrame edging gives it texture without the try-hard energy of a full crochet situation. This is what happens when a brand understands that basic black minis are dead and texture is literally everything. Come for the cafe colorway (soft, warm, that girl coded), stay for the fact that it also comes in tourmaline and a stripe-and-polka-dot combo that's giving main character energy without screaming for attention. The nylon-spandex blend means it'll actually hold up through chlorine and salt water, unlike those Instagram-famous pieces that fall apart after one season. Pair it with a matching macrame top or layer it under a linen shirt — honestly, this is the kind of bottom that works just as hard off the beach as it does on it.
