Gray is well known for his jet set lifestyle. His work regularly takes him all over the globe, from the beaches of Australia to the snowy peaks of Zermatt. But the thing we love about his Aqua Glam series—which was shot right here at home in Los Angeles—is that it so perfectly captures the essence of a timeless American summer. Sometimes you don’t have to step on a plane to experience the world all around you; all you need is a day poolside with friends, soaking up the sun and splashing around in the water. Now that it’s really starting to heat up, we were inspired to do some swimsuit shopping based on this series—and the ‘Summertime Swimmers’ print in particular! We love the vintage vibes these bathing beauties are channeling with their high-waisted bikini bottoms, halter-tops, and classic prints. And especially with Memorial Day and the Fourth of July coming up, the red, white, and blue color palette couldn’t be more on point.
