Miami's swimwear fashion week and the fact that it is, err, summer has brought about a flood of new labels that make you look your best on the beach. But no brand has gained so much praise for its bikinis as the Australian Zimmermann.

Polyvore users have reacted to this popularity in editorials and are especially inspired by the label's vintage-looking florals, making Zimmermann climb up the top ten brands as well as in websites.

1980s-inspired looks are still dominating the top trends, with new entries including leopard print and cropped tops, while delicate jeweled heels are promising to give fashion's more clunky platforms a run for their money.
