Inside Kylie Jenner's Seductive New Swimwear Collection With Frankies Bikinis
Every item on this page was chosen by an ELLE editor. We may earn commission on some of the items you choose to buy. Kylie Jenner set the internet ablaze earlier this summer when she shared the details of her boob job on TikTok. 'Now I'm one step closer to getting Kylie's body,' we all joked. But today, I come bearing great news. As it turns out, you don't have to go under the knife to get her buxom look, because Jenner is teaming up with Frankies Bikinis to bring back the push-up bra in bikini form. Today, Khy (Jenner's fashion brand) and Frankies Bikinis announced their upcoming collaboration—and they gave yours truly the exclusive. 'I've been wearing [Frankies Bikinis] pieces for years, and always found the styles so flattering and comfortable,' Jenner tells via email. 'When it came to [Khy's] first swim collaboration, teaming up with Francesca and Frankies Bikinis felt like the perfect fit.' Francesca Aiello, who launched Frankies Bikinis alongside her mom in 2012, echoed that. 'I've admired Khy since the moment it launched,' she said. 'Kylie has created something truly beautiful and intentional.' It was a match made in swimwear heaven, with both social media darlings saying it felt natural to work together—'like two girls dreaming up their perfect swim drawer,' Aiello said in a press release. (For those keeping track, Frankies Bikinis dropped a collab with Bella Hadid earlier this year, too.) The collection introduces Cloud Cups—Jenner and Aiello's re-imagination of the padded push-up top. 'Francesca and I were inspired by the classic elegance of vintage lingerie and the confident vibe of bombshell swimwear,' Jenner said. Aiello, who suspects the imminent return of push-ups, adds, 'It's not about being overly sexy, but about creating silhouettes that make you feel confident and lifted.' How would I describe the pieces? Seductive. And fit for the next season of Love Island, which by the way, Jenner is obsessed with. (You two have something in common!) There are polka dots, lace trim, leopard print, and satin across six bikini top styles and four bottom silhouettes. 'I feel like this collection is the perfect mix of sweet and sexy,' Jenner says. And for your time spent on land, the line also includes limited-edition minidresses and coordinating separates. 'The variety of prints and silhouettes allows you to try different aesthetics, like the playful polka dots or the more romantic leopard and lace. Summer is such a fun time to express yourself through style, and to embrace your inner sexiness and confidence,' says Jenner. And speaking of confidence, where the heck can I get some? I asked the two for their best big-sister advice on the topic. 'Choose pieces that truly make you feel good,' Jenner suggests. 'I think that when you feel comfortable and supported, your confidence shines through.' Follow this tip and, according to Aiello, 'you'll honestly radiate. When you feel good in what you're wearing, that confidence naturally becomes the sexiest part.' Because I was raised on original YouTube influencers, I somehow find a way to ask for a 'what's in my bag' by the end of nearly every interview. This time, at least, it made sense. In Kylie's beach tote, you'll find sunglasses, a digital camera, headphones, sunscreen, and Kylie Cosmetics' Lip Butter. And in Aiello's: EltaMD SPF, a hairbrush with coconut oil, Rhode face mist, chapstick with SPF, and finally, 'I always bring a big Hydro Flask filled with hibiscus iced tea and honey.' So refreshing! Frankies Bikinis x Khy will be available online on July 16 at noon EST. Sizes range from XXS to 2XL, and prices vary between $85-195.

Metro picks veteran of Northern Kentucky bus system as new CEO
Cincinnati's transit agency has picked a veteran of Northern Kentucky's bus system as its new CEO. Andy Aiello will take over as Metro CEO on June 1, replacing the retiring Darryl Haley, the Metro Board of Trustees announced. Aiello, 47, joined Metro as chief of staff in 2022, later becoming deputy general manager. He arrived from the Transit Authority of Northern Kentucky, where he worked for 18 years, the last 12 as general manager. He earlier worked for the Atlanta Regional Commission and the Georgia Department of Transportation. Aiello earned a bachelor's degree from Miami University and a master's from the University of Cincinnati. In a press release, Aiello said he would build on the foundation Haley created as CEO to "ensure Metro continues to move the Greater Cincinnati region forward." Haley, CEO since 2019, spent 19 years at Metro. During his tenure, Metro won voter approval for a ballot measure to fund its Reinventing Metro program. The Enquirer earlier requested a list of candidates for the position, but has not yet received the records from Metro.

Gloucester police officer charged with receiving child pornography, federal authorities say
'The allegations being faced by this officer run counter to every value of the Gloucester Police Department,' Conley said. 'The Gloucester Police Department is cooperating with the U.S. Attorney's Office as noted in their statement today, and will continue to do so.' Authorities say the agents seized Aiello's cell phone and laptop as well as a USB thumb drive during the search of his home and discovered a TOR browser was installed 'and actively running' on his laptop. Investigators allegedly found encrypted folders on the USB drive and laptop during a preliminary examination of the devices, the US attorney's office said. Advertisement Prosecutors allege Aiello was identified as a user with a registered account for a dark website where users could download, view, advertise, and distribute child sex abuse material, the statement said. 'As a law enforcement officer, Mr. Aiello was entrusted with safeguarding the community – and that includes protecting children from exploitation and abuse," US Attorney Leah Foley said in the statement. 'Instead, he allegedly participated in one of the most reprehensible forms of exploitation.' Advertisement James Crowley, acting special agent in charge for the FBI's Boston office, said those 'who seek out this despicable material are perpetuating the victimization of innocent children.' 'That's why the FBI's Child Exploitation – Human Trafficking Task Force diligently pursues these cases," he said in the statement. 'Protecting kids from this physical and emotional trauma is our priority.' If convicted, Aiello could face a sentence of five to 20 years in prison and five years to a lifetime of probation, as well as a fine of $250,000, Foley's office said. It was not immediately clear Friday if Aiello was being represented by an attorney. Aiello comes from a family of Gloucester police officers with three brothers on the force, according to the police department's Nick Stoico can be reached at
