Shopping for swimsuits is the worst. No matter what size you are, everyone feels uncomfortable in a fitting room trying on a small piece of fabric over your bra and underwear (because ew). It’s almost impossible to feel confident in those tiny rooms with mirrors I swear are meant to make you look worse. 

But then, along came the magic of online bathing suit shopping, and summer was changed forever, right?! Not exactly. Plus-size swimwear options have been few and far between until recently. If it was cute, the prices were astronomical (and not worth it unless you live in sunny California or Florida and swim at least once a week — jealous). If the price was right, it was unflattering and made for someone who wanted to hide their body instead of embracing it. No thanks. 

Luckily, plus-size swimwear has finally found its way, and we’re swimming (ha) with excitement. Check out our picks for the best brands offering plus-size swim this summer, and shop our favorite items.

SKIMS

SKIM’s best-selling shapewear is now available in swimwear. Earning a reputation for its commitment to inclusivity, the brand has doubled down its promise of delivering body-positive designs in the form of supportive one-pieces and high-waisted bikinis. Available in sizes XXS to 4X, SKIM’s new swimwear collection is designed to fit a variety of body types and best of all, their minimal designs can be styled any day of the week—no body of water needed.

TA3

Founded by longtime fashion designer, Leila Shams, TA3 aims to bring a shapewear-inspired fit to swimwear. Shams questions why women would “wear the flimsiest, most shapeless garments ever” at a time when we’re most exposed, so her suits are engineered with one goal in mind: to feel confident in swimwear. TA3’s designs aim to enhance a woman’s natural curves by focusing on a supportive bust, contoured seams, and most importantly, their signature waist-cinching bodice.

If you’re in the market for a good print, Montce is your go-to. The Florida-based brand, known for their more fashion-forward designs, has become more size inclusive in recent years, with most suits available in sizes up to 24. They’ve amassed a large social media following for their tasteful prints and ultra-flatterings fits like ruched petal cups and high-cut bikini bottoms.

Summersalt

With most swimsuits available in sizes two through 24, Summersalt has made a name for itself as the size-inclusive shopping destination. Their suits are largely minimal in design, with the exception of a few color-blocked styles, the brand’s signature. Similar to Andie, Summersalt’s site is filtered by fit, like extra booty coverage or additional chest support. We especially love the brand for their long-torso styles, offered in a range of dipped, ruffled and one-shouldered silhouettes.

Hutch

The women’s clothing brand is widely recognized for their dresses—a go-to during wedding season—but many may not realize that in recent years, they’ve extended into the swimwear space as well. While not technically considered a swimwear destination just yet, the brand has a pretty impressive assortment of plus-size styles with prints that are fairly hard to pass up.
