The Global Swimwear Market was valued at USD 22.9 billion in 2025 and is estimated to grow at a CAGR of 6.3% to reach USD 41.7 billion by 2035.

Growth is supported by rising global focus on health, wellness, and active lifestyles, which has increased participation in water-based fitness and recreational activities. As swimming and aquatic exercise gain year-round relevance, swimwear is increasingly viewed as essential apparel rather than a seasonal purchase. Consumers place growing importance on performance-oriented materials that offer comfort, durability, and quick-drying characteristics, while protection-focused fabric features also influence buying decisions. Expanding leisure travel and improved access to coastal and resort destinations further stimulate demand for swimwear across age groups. At the same time, swimwear has evolved beyond utility, becoming an expression of personal style and lifestyle identity. Design innovation, fabric advancements, and broader product availability have expanded consumer adoption across multiple use cases. As fitness engagement, travel activity, and fashion consciousness continue to intersect, the swimwear industry remains positioned for sustained global expansion.

The bikini category generated USD 9.1 billion in 2025 and is forecast to grow at a CAGR of 7.1% from 2026 to 2035. This segment benefits from its strong association with leisure and travel apparel, along with rising demand for visually distinctive and trend-driven designs that elevate swimwear as a fashion-focused product.

The women segment held 73.1% share in 2025, and this segment is projected to grow at a CAGR of 6.7% through 2035. Demand is driven by evolving fashion preferences, lifestyle shifts, and higher engagement in water-related activities, which encourage frequent purchases of both functional and design-forward swimwear options.
