Plus Size Swimwear
Shop plus size swimwear and plus size bathing suits built for coverage, support, and a secure fit in the water. Plus size swimsuits here cover tummy-control one-pieces, tankinis with separate sizing for top and bottom, skirted swim dresses, long torso cuts, and suits with shorts, in sizes 14W through 4X. SwimOutlet carries plus size swimwear with wide adjustable straps, built-in bust support, and chlorine-resistant fabric for lap swimming, water aerobics, pool days, and the beach.
The right plus size suit comes down to two choices: how much coverage and support you want, and where you swim. Match the style to the first and the fabric to the second, and the suit will hold where you want it to and stay put when you move.
Plus Size Swimsuit Styles
-
Tummy-control one-pieces: Built-in shaping panels smooth the midsection while a supportive bust keeps everything in place for lap swimming or the beach. Shop plus size one piece swimsuits.
-
Tankinis: A tank-style top with separate bottoms lets you size the top and bottom differently and add coverage over the midriff. Browse plus size tankinis.
-
Swim dresses: A skirted suit covers the hips and upper thighs while built-in bottoms stay put when you swim. See plus size swim dresses.
-
Long torso and unitard suits: A longer torso stops the suit riding up on taller frames, and a unitard adds thigh coverage for water aerobics and lap swim. See plus size long torso swimsuits and plus size unitard swimsuits.
-
Suits with shorts: Pair a supportive top with swim shorts for leg coverage and a secure fit on active days.
Coverage and Support That Fits
Fuller figures need real support, not an afterthought. Look for wide, adjustable straps that do not dig in, a built-in shelf bra or underwire for a fuller bust, and a longer torso so the suit sits comfortably without riding up. Higher necklines and full-coverage backs add security, while ruching and shaping panels smooth the stomach and waist. These details are what make a suit comfortable enough to wear all day.
Sizing
Plus size swimwear here runs 14W through 4X. Size by your bust and hip measurements against each suit's size chart rather than by dress size, since swim fabric fits closer than clothing. If suits tend to ride up, choose a long torso cut. For lap swimming and water aerobics, chlorine-resistant polyester holds its shape and support far longer than standard blends.
Finding Your Fit
Start with the coverage you want most. Choose a tummy-control one-piece or a swim dress for the most coverage, a tankini if you want to size your top and bottom separately, and a supportive top with swim shorts for active days. Layer a cover-up for the walk to the water. To compare every cut, browse the full women's swimwear range.
