Fashion gurus around the world always say that the less you wear on the beach the better — with summer hitting its peak.
Fashion gurus around the world always say that the less you wear on the beach the better — with summer hitting its peak in a few days and the beach being one of the only places for some cool respite,
DNA asks a few beach bums on what their beach dress code is all about. See where you fit in…
Sammir Dattani, actor
I love wearing speedos, but ONLY when I am on the beach. Though, more than the one from Speedo, I like the ones from Hugo Boss — they’re super stylish and comfortable.
Raghu Ramappa, actor
When you have the body, you should flaunt it and there’s no better way to flaunt an awesome body than in a speedo. I am usually OK with any brand as long as it is in either blue or red.
Bhanujeet Singh Sudan, actor
I love the speedos from Speedo and have no shame in saying that that’s the only thing I’d wear to a beach or for swimming. I love their trunks that come till your thighs too and think dark blue looks good on me.
Aarav Singh, model
I am more of a Calvin Klein guy and adore the speedos that they’ve created. The cuts are awesome and make you look effortlessly sexy. I’m a black lover and so anything in black looks best on me.
Aditya Singh Rajput, actor
I am a complete water baby and a complete beach person. Tanning on the beach and playing with the waves is what I’d call my favourite pastime. I’m all for Aussiebum and think they make the best speedos or briefs — Australian sexiness is where the future’s at.
Vinay Sindya, model
I’m all for speedos and think yellow looks the best on me. The look that John Abraham perfected in Dostana is a look we all aim to achieve some day, but otherwise I’d even like to wear a pair of long fitting trunks and the brand really does not matter.
Arry Dabas, model
Being a water sports lover, speedos are the best thing to happen for me — I love the stuff from Speedo and also adore some of the stuff I’ve seen from Hugo Boss and Aussiebum. I am one for bright colours and prints and love the perfect fit speedo or g-string, to really show off those assets.
Ameet Dawar, actor
I’m not all for speedos and prefer Billabong anyday. I am more your surfer shorts kind of person and it works for me, because it works for the shack, the hike and the sea. I like yellow and white and usually you’d see me wearing something with those colours on it.
Carun Carumbaiah, model
I am a huge fan of Billabong and prefer wearing beach shorts or surfing shorts. I do love colours, but I ensure that I wear nothing over the top.
Tilak Shekhar, actor
I’m totally into water sports and so I love speedos. Though I am more of a Fastskin lover and really think they make you feel awesome even in the water.
Vinayak Joshi, actor
I would love to wear something really bright and multi-coloured and would definitely not mind wearing something like John Abraham in Dostana — though one would need that kind of body to carry off that look. I must say however, that for me, that day is not too far off!
Param Vir Singh, model
I love speedos, they make me look awesome and especially when they’re in black and blue. There’s nothing wrong in turning up the heat and Speedo gives you loads of ways to do that!
Karan Medappa, model
I do wear speedos sometimes, but I’m more into surfer shorts. Billabong’s my favourite brand and I love how it fits around the waist. They’re slim and comfortable. Also, thanks to the Quicksilver store that’s now in town, we’ve got a few more options. Adidas also does some really neat ones. It’s all about funky colour combinations for me and that’s what decides what I wear.
Varun Kumar, model
I am not really the speedo kind, but love using my several other sport-sy shorts for the beach. Puma and Adidas have some really cool looking ones and they can look as hot as any speedo.
