7 Flattering Bathing Suits for plus Sized Figures ...

Jenny

Searching through plus size bathing suits has always been something that has aggravated me. I want something sort of flowy that hides my problem areas (tummy and thighs) but it can’t be so loose that it floats up over my head when I swim. The last thing I want is to be wrapped in nylon and lycra which clings to every part of my body! Over the years, most of the choices have been dull, drab solid colors or something with gigantic floral print and the highest neckline in the world that looks like something my Grandmother would wear. In the past few years, thankfully, plus size bathing suits have started to catch up with the trends and I think there are some really nice ones to take a peek at this year! I know they are a bit pricey, but the price of swimwear has gone up in recent years. Heck, last year I had to pay $45 for one at Walmart. Invest, this once, in a stunning bathing suit that you can wear for years and years!

3. Flyaway Front Swimsuit

Flyaway Front Swimsuit If the swimdresses make you feel too constricted with their skirts, but you still want a bit more tummy coverage than the basic one-piece would give you, this suit is a good choice. It has a flyaway skirt that isn’t clingy, but flows out and flutters in the breeze. It has a scoop neck which keeps you covered more than traditional suits and it’s very feminine and pretty!

4. Ruched Bandeau Swimsuit

Ruched Bandeau Swimsuit I always shied away from ruching because I thought it would enhance my tummy and I’d like to stay away from that. It wasn’t until I was trying on wedding dresses that my mind was changed. I picked out several dresses to try on and the woman who was helping me asked why I hadn’t chosen a specific dress that was on display. I said because of the ruching. She asked me to just try it on and promised I would be surprised. It ended up being the dress I bought! Ruching, instead of enhancing your tummy, actually does a fantastic job of minimizing it! I never would have expected that and ever since then I have been trying more and more tops with the same look. This particular suit comes in two solid colors (black or green) and two pretty patterns. If you tend to steer clear of one piece suits but you’re looking to try one out, this is a good one to start with. Get it at Old Navy for $49.99 in sizes 1X-4X.

5. Sleeves!

Sleeves! If your arms happen to be your problem area, donning a swimsuit can leave you filled with dread. This suit is pretty costly, but it does have beautiful mesh sleeves. It also has another feature you rarely see on bathing suits…a zipper! No more trying to shimmy that suit all the way up, now just step in and zip! You may need someone else’s help with the zipper in the back, but this suit is really unique and I think it’s worth the minor inconvenience and the added price! MonifC.com has it in sizes 12W-24W for $118.50.

6. One Piece Crossover Sheath

One Piece Crossover Sheath If you hate your thighs, but you’ve got a great tush to show off, go with this suit.

It has an anti-bounce built in bra and the cross over pattern holds you in place nicely! Find it at JustMySize.com for $44.00, in sizes 14W-26W.

7. Bikini

Bikini I admit, I am really not a fan of the plus size bikini, nor am I fond of the term “fatkini” that has been coined and has become the new name of it. There are however several fuller figured ladies who will look great in them and it is for that reason I am putting it on my list. They have been selling out so fast that most stores can’t keep them in stock, so obviously a lot of people love them. If you have the body and the confidence to wear one, I say good for you! The top is convertible and can be worn as seen in the picture or strapless, depending on how much bust support you need. It's $68.00 at SwimsuitsForAll.com, where it's available in sizes 20-24.

I hope there were a few swimsuits on this list that you love. Websites like SwimsuitsForAll.com and a few of the others allow you to sign up for email alerts and once you do you get exceptional sales! Last week I got an email for 40% off all swimwear! It really helps make the suits considerably more affordable. What suit is your favorite?

Wow the second one really enhances her figure!

I can see most of the photos are photoshopped...

The bathing suits all come in plus sized sizes. I can only work with what I have ladies and its nearly impossible to find truly plus sized women wearing the exact bathing suit. I put the sizes that each suit goes up to. I agree they're not plus size models, I did the best I could with what I had to work with. I didn't put any photos of stick figures up, you've gotta at least give me credit for that ;)

I love most of the bathing suits just I wish they can be more flashy and bright and flirty.

They don't look plus size at all!! It's ridiculous how the perception of what's "plus size" has changed so much over the years....

You call that plus size..

They don't look plus size

Thanks so much. Plus sized bathing suits have come along way. I'm really liking the dresses.

How can anybody say that those girls are not plus size is beyond me. Sorry guys!
