Christopher Schwarzenegger is looking better than ever, and fans are doing a double take.

In the relaxed Instagram snap, Christopher is seen smiling broadly against a sparkling ocean backdrop, dressed in a simple white T-shirt and navy swim shorts adorned with bold orange floral prints.

The Biggest Cameo in Laufey’s ‘Madwoman’ Video? Hudson Williams’s Swim Trunks

The Biggest Cameo in Laufey’s ‘Madwoman’ Video? Hudson Williams’s Swim Trunks

The Iceland-born musician Laufey’s video for “Madwoman” just dropped. Featuring Heated Rivalry star Hudson Williams, Olympian Alysa Liu, The Summer I Turned Pretty‘s Lola Tung, and Katseye’s Megan Skiendiel, it’s packed with enough fandom-bridging cameos to keep FYPs busy for the next 72 hours. But somewhere in the middle of all the madness, there’s one detail that we keep going back to: Williams’s swim shorts. The actor—who was dressed for the video by his own stylist, Anastasia Walker—wore shorts from from Tom Ford, which were cut in Italy and covered in lots of polka dots (a signature of creative director Haider Ackermann). Befitting the video’s 1960s-suburbia theme, the trunks are neither a long Y2K-throwback boardshort or overly steamy thirst-trap short shorts. These get it just right, sitting on the mid thigh for a clean finish—and a very flattering choice if you’ve been on an ice-hockey-player fitness routine like Williams. At one point during the video, he wears them with a white tank top stamped with a giant “H” across the chest. Subtle enough. The polka-dot …

Best Swim Trunks for Men 2026: 15 Editor-Tested Picks

Best Swim Trunks for Men 2026: 15 Editor-Tested Picks

How Long Should Swim Trunks Be? We think the ideal length of a swim trunk is 5 inches in inseam length—just enough to show off the quads. For comparison sake, Bather trunks (our overall winner) clock in at 5.5 inches. You can, of course, go as short as a 3-inch inseam, and or about 7 inches, which hit right above the knee for most dudes. If you’re looking to think about it a little more deeply as it relates to your body, it’s a question of proportion. As a general rule, the hem should hit somewhere between mid-thigh and just above the knee: short enough to avoid the dragging feeling of a longer cut, long enough that you’re not raising eyebrows at the hotel buffet. How We Test and Review Products Style is subjective, we know—that’s the fun of it. But we’re serious about helping our audience get dressed. Whether it’s the best white sneakers, the flyest affordable suits, or the need-to-know menswear drops of the week, GQ Recommends’ perspective is built on years of …

Actress Lili Reinhart Stars in BTS’ New “Swim” Music Video

Actress Lili Reinhart Stars in BTS’ New “Swim” Music Video

Forbidden Fruits star Lili Reinhart joined forces with BTS for the group’s new music video for “Swim.” The lead single off the K-pop supergroup’s long-awaited fifth studio album, Arirang, “Swim” is a synth-heavy track that is much more mellow than most of the album. The music video starts with Reinhart looking at ship in a museum as the sounds of waves usher in the song. The video then cuts to that very real ship, manned by the seven members of BTS — RM, Jin, Suga, J-hope, Jimin, V and Jungkook — sporting sailor friendly fits. “Swim” continues BTS’ exploration of their perspective on life, similar to their previous singles “Life Goes On” and “Permission to Dance” — although those certainly take two different routes to get to that end point. The ship featured in the music video is representative of a space of healing and growth. Reinhart’s character, having woken up inside the ship, grapples with moments of doubt and anguish throughout the music video. “The seven members remain by her side as quiet sources …

My Mother Broke A Generational Curse By Learning How To Swim

My Mother Broke A Generational Curse By Learning How To Swim

My grandmother never stepped foot in a swimming pool. The closest she ever came was the afternoon I held my phone in front of her face, tilting the tiny glowing screen so she could see her great-granddaughters slicing through bright blue water at a swim meet. They were still little then, just beginning to race. Her eyes were tired but sharp. “Shana,” she said, squinting at the screen, “what is that girl doing in that water?!” There was real fear in her voice; the kind that doesn’t come from ignorance, but from history. “She’s racing, Grandma,” I told her. “That’s Zuri. Don’t worry – she’s safe.” She leaned closer, watching those small arms churn. “Do they like swimming?” She nodded slowly, and looked on. “I never did learn to swim, baby. Never even been in a pool.” I squeezed her hand. “I know. But we aim to change all that with Zuri and Amara.” What I didn’t say was that this wasn’t just about safety. It was about rewriting something. My grandmother never learned to …

How iGarden Swim Jet X Series Solved the Aquatic Power Puzzle

How iGarden Swim Jet X Series Solved the Aquatic Power Puzzle

  Engineering a high-output water motor that is both powerful and portable has long been an industry challenge. The core problem has always been the “Power-to-Weight” ratio: how do you generate a current strong enough to challenge a human swimmer using only battery power, without the unit becoming too heavy to move? On March 12th at 9:00 AM PDT, iGarden officially solves that puzzle with the iGarden Swim Jet X Series.   Powered by a Portable External Power Box The X Series is built around a high-density lithium power stack, making it a truly portable device. iGarden engineers have improved both the safety and the versatility of the product. Water and electricity are a dangerous mix; by utilizing an internal, sealed lithium battery, the X Series removes the risk of high-voltage cables near the water. The real engineering marvel, however, is the AI-assisted logic that manages the power output. This internal intelligence stabilizes the flow, ensuring that every watt of energy is used efficiently. By smoothing out the “surges” typical of water pumps, the AI …

Fish swim in Southwest Papua, Indonesia : NPR

Fish swim in Southwest Papua, Indonesia : NPR

Far-Flung Postcards is a weekly series in which NPR’s international team shares moments from their lives and work around the world. The world that exists underwater is almost entirely different from our own. In Raja Ampat, a collection of islands in Indonesia’s Southwest Papua province, there exists some of the richest marine biodiversity in the world. On a recent visit, I was able to do multiple dives. The water was warm and the sun was bracing. I hadn’t been diving in some years and it took a minute to adjust to the discomforts of being deep beneath the sea, relying on a tank for air and goggles for vision. But once past that, I found myself listening to my breath as I floated gently amongst the foreign inhabitants of the sea. They watched me as much as I watched them. I found myself constantly distracted and awed by one beautiful thing to another — colorful coral, sparkling schools of fish and the occasional shark flashing by. Getting to visit this world while scuba diving is …

Maria Sharapova stuns in backless swimsuit for outdoor swim during snowy winter getaway

Former tennis player Maria Sharapova has been taking it easy lately. She’s been enjoying her stay in Badia, Italy, which resembles a surreal winter wonderland full of snow-covered mountains and pine trees. Maria firstly went skiing and then she indulged in a luxurious outside hot tub overlooking the resort’s massive land.  © InstagramMaria enjoyed some downtime She shared her fashionable look online, as she donned a sleek one-piece bathing suit with spaghetti straps on her social media. Right afterwards, she got nice and toasty in an indoor sauna to relax from her productive day. Maria shared a video in which she showcased all the activities she partook in and she captioned it: “I finally made it to the Dolomites!! What a special place this is. Understated. Not flashy at all. What a relief!” She added: “I’m not a skier (yet) but I trekked, hiked and swam outside, all in one day. Rinse & repeat!! And what a beautiful property @amanrosaalpina is. Can’t wait for you to see what we filmed.” Recent travel While most tourists recently …
