It's time to pull out or (shop for) the best plus-size swimwear pieces and we've got a list of the most popular styles to sport this summer. 

We're seeing plenty of brands and designers create new and trendy plus-size bathing suits, including swimsuits with long sleeves, retro silhouettes, high-cut one-pieces, color-block designs with shorts, sequin underwrite bra tops, and more. 

And while we’re excited about all the fun styles to try out, we also know that it's important to pay attention to the support, fit, and size when shopping for plus-size swimwear. So to help you pick the best selects, we searched through hundreds of customer reviews to find a good mix of swimsuits that can work for various body shapes and sizes. 

You'll find cheap swimsuits on Amazon that offer it all, without sacrificing style. For some, a high waist bottom offering tummy control is essential, while others prefer securing the girls with a full coverage underwire top. It’s all up to you. But one thing is for sure: with plus-size bathing suits, you shouldn’t have to lose style in the process.

Ahead, find 34 great swim fits for any upcoming parties or summer vacation trips on your calendar. And remember: every body is a summer body and you deserve to look and feel good in your swimsuit of choice. 

Our Top Picks


Floral Print Cutout Drawstring One Piece Swimsuit

This one piece from Amazon is giving us all the tropical beach vacation vibes. Whether you’re actually laying out on a beach towel or simply want to just pretend you are, this number will work great.

Pros: Cool patterns, supportive top
Cons: Thin straps
Size Range: XL - 4X
Return Policy: 30 days
Customer Review: “I hold all my weight in my belly and chest. I wear a 38D. I bought the multicolored in XL plus. It’s amazing! I was surprised at how well it held my chest up! The stomach, though, was kinda loose. I’m keeping this one, but I’m also getting it in a large plus to see how it fits. This suit is so flattering, and I love the cutout.

CUPSHE Women's One Piece Swimsuit Tummy Control V Neck Bathing Suits

Amazon is a great website to find cheap swimsuits and this supportive pick has a flattering criss-cross design with front straps, which are wide and offer excellent support for the bust. If you love the fit, you can order this swimsuit in 12 different vibrant colors, including blue, red, yellow, and more.

Pros: Supportive, stylish
Cons: Bottom cuts crotch area at times
Size Range: XS - XXL
Return Policy: 30 days
Customer Review: “I love this suit. I’ve never liked one-pieces because it makes me feel like a stuffed sausage all squeezed in. I no longer felt ok in a two-piece and tried a few options from Cupshe. I love this suit. It is a little cheeky but not much. It’s just not full coverage in the rear if that is what you need.”

SWIM RUCHED T-SHIRT

SKIMS amongst consumers is a fan favorite as their products always sell out. So if you want to snag one of these suits, definitely move fast. The neon two-piece features a t-shirt top (that won’t slip, thanks to the spandex material.)
