17 Swimwear Options to Make You Feel Confident This Summer
Contrary to what you may believe, feeling great in a bathing suit isn’t a matter of what your body looks like, but how well the suit suits you. All women deserve flattering swimwear! You just have to find it.
Luckily, I did all the searching for you. Whether you are trying to find swimwear to enhance, conceal, be active in, or just something that fits perfectly—here are some swimwear options you are going to love.
Modcloth Daylight Dip One-Piece Swimsuit in Nautical
This suit is the perfect happy medium between a one and two piece. As an hourglass, I can personally attest to the shape enhancing magic of Modcloth.
Modcloth Sunrise Swim Halter and High-Waisted Bottom
Whether you are planning a friendly game of beach volleyball or showing cleavage just isn’t your thing—this is the two-piece for you. The high-waisted bottoms are also a good insurance policy against a wardrobe malfunction.
Lilly Pulitzer Salsa Bikini
With its bright classic print, Lilly Pulitzer’s bandeau Salsa Bikini puts a smile on your face while taking away your worries about tan lines. The classic tie bottom prevents dreaded hip dip.
Old Navy Underwire Halter Swim Tops
Most of the time, underwire swimwear just looks like a bra. So this full coverage halter, which is available in several prints and patterns, is a nice surprise. Old Navy also has lots of choices for mix and match bottoms including boy shorts, board shorts, bikinis, and even skirts.
Boden Rinella Bikini
This tropical print bandeau halter gives a little extra support. The tassel tie bottoms make this suit extra fun.
Trina Turk Bouquet Floral Off Shoulder Bikini Set
Know for her bright but sophisticated prints, Trina Turk makes some of the cutest swimwear around. This off the shoulder top conceals your upper arms (if that’s something you want to do) and enhances your bust. The tie bottom is slightly high waisted but still below the belly button.
Bandit Swimwear Capri Illusion One Piece In Dark Chocolate & Rose
Long sleeves are a really big trend this year, but so many long sleeved suits are missing the va-va-voom. Not this one… With a deep v and criss cross strap, Bandit’s backless suit transforms you into a total beach babe.
Koa Swim Havana One Piece
This one-piece suit is fully reversible, so it’s really like having two. It’s also so versatile you can also wear it with shorts or a skirt. Make the Havana the most stylish space saver on your next trip.
duskii Farrah Long Sleeve Bikini Suit
Say “bye” to boring wetsuits. Whether you are surfing or concerned about sun protection (the fabric is UPF 50+), you’ll want to wear this on the beach all day long.

The Worthmont bikini feels like activewear with a full-coverage top and high waisted bottoms. But with a super modern fabric and available in solid white, black and grey, there is nothing retro about this suit.

In several color block styles, you can pair it with your choice of bottoms. So all you have to do is find the most flattering combo.
Crane & Lion
If you like Crane & Lion’s activewear, you will love their new swimwear collection.
