The 25 Most Flattering Swimsuits to Shop Now—Before They Sell Out
1. Shade & Shore Ribbed Bandeau One Piece Swimsuit
This classic strapless one-piece is incredibly flattering, super comfortable and costs less than 30 bucks—a true triple threat. The high-cut leg helps elongate your silhouette without feeling too risqué, and the ruching helps smooth your midsection. The bust has a built-in shelf bra with removable cups, but there are also removable straps included should you find yourself wanting a little extra support.
2. Shade & Shore Wide Band Bikini Top and Wide Band Bikini Bottom
A little bit retro, a little bit modern and 100 percent flattering, this bikini is an absolute winner in our book. That yellow hue looks good on just about every skin tone, but there’s also classic black (with white trim) if you prefer. The wide band under the bust—plus the wide adjustable shoulder straps—offers plenty of support to keep your gals in place even while splashing around in the waves. As for the bottom, it has a high waist that chinches you in at the exact right place, and the high-cut legs make your stems look miles long. It is a little cheeky in back, but reviewers say it doesn’t ride up or give them a wedgie while in motion.
3. Shade & Shore Mesh Front One Piece Swimsuit
Much like LBDs, you can never have too many little black swimsuits. This subtly sexy design features mesh panels along the midsection that help create the illusion of an hourglass figure, while the back is fully covered with medium bum coverage. The shoulder straps can be adjusted with slides in the back, and there are removable cups in the built-in shelf bra for added modesty while swimming in chilly waters. Per one review, “This suit is very stylish and it has built in shapewear that does a great job of cinching your waist. It is very comfortable though.”
4. Kona Sol Textured Square Neck One-Piece
Comfort is key when your plans involve nothing but lounging poolside for the afternoon. The fabric is incredibly stretchy to conform to your curves without pinching or tugging, but is also fully lined so you won’t feel totally on display. The rear offers full coverage as well, so there is zero risk of unwanted wedgies. “I have such a hard time finding bathing suits because I have a long torso,” writes one reviewer. “I like things with full coverage [in the] booty and generally comfortable as I swim with my two small children. This suit is literally perfection.”
5. Wild Fable Orange Underwire Bikini Top and Side-Tie Bikini Bottom
We’re calling it now, fruit prints are going to be everywhere this summer, especially on swimwear and cover-ups. This bikini has the added benefits of a supportive underwire and shoulder straps that are fully adjustable. It also comes with removable cups so you can choose whatever level of coverage you’re most comfortable with. The bottoms have a cheeky, high-cut leg with adjustable tie sides as well.
6. Cupshe Cutout High-Neck One-Piece
If you want something with ample coverage in front and back, but that doesn’t look dowdy, this Cupshe one-piece is just the ticket. The bust has a super-flattering keyhole to accent the high neck, and there are removable cups for modesty. The back has crisscross straps you can adjust for a streamlined fit, but is also cut fairly high to give you support and coverage from behind as well. Reviewers say it fits true to size, so all that you have to do is decide which of the timeless, flattering hues you want to add to cart first.
7. Cupshe Plunge Halter One-Piece
On the flip side, for those who prefer the comfort of a one-piece but don’t want to sacrifice the sex-appeal of a bikini, try this chic plunging swimsuit. The halter top knots in back and there are removable cups in the bust, but what we really love is the ruched bodice which continues around the back for 360 degrees of smoothing. “Very flattering!” writes one reviewer. “Unlike with other one-piece suits, the chest area doesn’t get smashed down. This suit is also very comfortable. No riding up and the girls stay in place.”
8. Kona Sol Ruffle Strap One-Piece
Florals for swimwear aren’t exactly groundbreaking, but they will never go out of style either. This one-piece has the added bonus of cute ruffled shoulders and a flattering ruched midsection. The straps are not adjustable, however there are removable cups in the bust, and most reviewers say the suit fits true to size. “This is the perfect mix of functional and cute. Great coverage for bum and top,” writes one reviewer. The rear is, indeed, full coverage and the back goes up fairly high to give you a smooth silhouette from all angles.
9. Wild Fable Underwire Bikini Top and String Bikini Bottom
String bikinis are great because they offer maximum adjustability. But if you want something with a bit more pizazz, this Wild Fable number has dainty daisy charms attached to the ends of each string. It also offers more support than your traditional string style, with a band that clasps in back and a built-in underwire. It also comes in pink, white and a fun ‘60s-inspired print if you want something a bit brighter.
10. Wild Fable Scoop Front Cheeky Bikini Bottom
If you’re looking for a super-flattering, classic bikini bottom you can mix and match with any top, consider this under-$15 style. The combination of the curved waistband and the high-cut legs works to emphasize your curves in the most flattering way, and the back has a slightly cheeky fit that feels subtly sexy without being too racy. Reviews note it fits true to size, too.
11. Wild Fable Underwire Bikini Top and Ultra-High Leg Bikini Bottom
“I’m so obsessed with this vibrant floral print, but it’s the stripe trim that really stole my hear,” says Fashion Editor Abby Hepworth. “I also love the ‘90s-inspired fit—the high legs are so fun.” The underwire cups offer ample support and while the bottoms are certainly sexy, they have medium coverage in back. For sizes US 14 through 26, there is also an added band under the bust to ensure you have that support you need up top.
