Ever heard of fighting fire with fire? Well, we believe in it and could think of no better way to tackle the sweltering heat of summer than with an equally hot swimsuit. Itsy-bitsy bikinis and tankinis from Kerry Kay's were all in the mix. Practical and sexy cover-ups are also there for the picking. For the face, make-up artist Paul March gave our models sultry, smokey eyes and extra sexy red lips.
We accessorised the swimsuits with bold and eclectic jewellery from Megan Allison, Lady Gray and Kima.
Check out Flair's options for the beach.
