Male Highlights at NYSW 2025: Swimwear, Shine & Strong Faces

New York City, July 26, 2025 —

This year’s New York Swim Week (NYSW 2025) leaned heavily into dazzling jewelry accents and luxury swimwear—especially in the women’s segments—but the men made a solid impact on the runway, and that’s what we’re here for.

Despite FashionablyMale.net not receiving an invite (we noticed!), the male model presence did not go unappreciated. American Mister Iowa USA 2024, Keith Manacke, returned to the swimwear spotlight after a strong appearance at Miami Swim Week 2025. His classic physique and confident walk stood out among the sea of newbies.

Among the fresh faces were a few rising names worth watching, blending athletic frames with editorial presence. While the designs were predominantly minimal in cut, textures like metallic mesh, high-gloss Lycra, and artisan accessorieselevated the male swim looks into something bold and editorial-worthy.

Lachlan McLean, the Aussie heartthrob and frequent NY showgoer, was spotted front row—a reminder that the men’s swimwear scene has its loyal fans and insiders.
