Outer Banks' Madison Bailey Has the Cutest Swimsuit Style

Think Kiara on Outer Banks Has Cute Bikinis? Wait 'Til You See Madison Bailey's IRL

As POPSUGAR editors, we independently select and write about stuff we love and think you'll like too. If you buy a product we have recommended, we may receive affiliate commission, which in turn supports our work.

It's no secret that Kiara on Outer Banks has a killer swimsuit collection, but it turns out the actress who portrays her character, Madison Bailey, does too. Take a quick scroll through Maddie's Instagram, and you'll be blessed with cute bikinigrams from both the set of Outer Banks and her life before becoming a breakout Netflix star. Her IRL bathing suit style offers a delightfully varied mix — she's got classics like a black string two-piece (don't we all?) and wild cards like a neon one-shoulder suit.

To honour our favourite member of the Pogue crew, we're breaking down Maddie's best swimsuit moments and styling tricks, plus where to score similar styles for yourself this summer. Ladies and gentlemen of the jury, we hereby declare Miss Madison Bailey the all-reigning Queen of Cute Swimsuits. *Slams imaginary gavel* Court dismissed.

On the set of Outer Banks, Madison rocked this burnt-orange Shade * Shore bikini with her character's signature beaded necklaces alongside costar Madelyn Cline. Gosh, don't you just love this duo?!
