26 Best Size-Inclusive Swimwear Brands To Shop This Summer

Just thinking about putting on a swimsuit can be a daunting task for many women. The decades-long idea that a woman must be flawless to wear a swimsuit has a hold on many, despite the growing body positivity movement and the fact that most American women wear a size 16 to 18, according to Forbes. It doesn't help that size-inclusive swimwear has historically featured generic cuts in unflattering prints that offered minimal support.

Thankfully, a growing number of brands are recognizing the need for attractive and functional size-inclusive swimwear. As more and more women attempt to embrace radical self-love and demand swimwear options like their straight-size counterparts enjoy, a variety of sustainable, eco-friendly swimwear brands have taken up the banner (via Mashable). The brand's collections run the gamut from timeless to daring. Many also include expanded sizing options and focus on sustainability and slow-fashion practices.

According to activist Gillian Brown, finding swimwear you love is the first step toward rocking a confident beach body regardless of your body size or shape, per The Body Is Not an Apology. This guide features 26 of the best size-inclusive swimwear brands that celebrate the curves of a woman's body while providing ample comfort and support.

If you're a fan of fair-trade, transparent, and eco-friendly brands making big changes to the fashion industry, Girlfriend Collective should be on your radar. The popular brand launched in 2020 and became an instant success thanks to its focus on representation and size-inclusive designs. The brand's swimwear collection, available in sizes XXS to 6XL, features supportive, classic styles that flatter every figure. The line includes everything from bikinis to traditional one-piece suits, with a focus on sporty styles that move with your body. Girlfriend Collective's swimsuits come in a handful of bright colors that can easily be mixed and matched. Its suits also have a UPF 50+ rating.

The brand's ethical manufacturing and sustainability practices have earned them plenty of hype as well. In addition to 100% recycled and recyclable packaging, the brand's clothing lines are made from old fishing nets, post-consumer water bottles, and other plastic waste. Each swimsuit comes with a sustainability report that breaks down exactly how much oil, energy, and CO2 your purchase saves.

Some brands promise swimsuits for every body but fail to deliver, producing poorly made and cut suits that lead to endless tugging and the occasional NSFW slips. Andie Swim is not one of those brands. It recognized the need for well-engineered swimsuits that delivered form, function, and style, with the ability to make women feel confident and sexy. Andie Swim's size-inclusive swimsuits are the perfect blend of comfort and fit. This achievement comes from wear tests from over 300,000 women of all shapes and sizes, as well as a dedication to customer feedback. Sizes run from XS to 3XL, with different options for long or short torsos, bust size, and bottom coverage.

If you're not sure what size is best for you, you can find your perfect fit with a 12-question quiz (via Andie Swim). The quiz helps select suits that align with your body type, styles you normally prefer, and the types of activities you plan to do while wearing the suit. Suits at Andie Swim are also as stylish as they are functional. There are numerous style options to choose from, from classic one-pieces to string bikinis, all of which come in a range of colors and limited edition prints.

Nomads Swimwear is a Black-woman-owned swimwear brand that caters to sizes XS through 5X. Nomads Swimwear was created by plus-size model and fashion designer Taylor Long as a way to bridge the gap between size and style. The brand also believes that every person should have access to clothing that makes them feel good.

The brand's timeless designs are inspired by the wayfaring woman in need of glamorous resort wear. Designs range from classic one-piece neutrals with ample coverage to two-pieces featuring sexy illusion necklines and attractive color blocking that flatters every curve. Every suit is an Insta-worthy gem, whether you're lounging poolside with a cocktail or snorkeling in the turquoise waters of the Caribbean.

Nomads Swimwear also focuses on creating sustainable products that last. Its swimsuits are made from soft, sheer-proof Italian fabric called ECONYL. This eco-friendly nylon fabric is made from fishing nets and other industrial plastics, which help reduce waste but are also strong and hold their shape. Nomads' swimsuits are made in sustainable small batches, eliminating the waste produced by fast fashion.

Fashion and fit collide with the unique swimsuits created by Saint Somebody. The luxury Australian swimwear brand caters to sizes 8 through 20, with a focus on high-quality products that are built to last.

In addition to sustainable practices and ethical production philosophies (via Saint Somebody), the brand is committed to mindful designs that the average woman can enjoy. Its suits come with incredible bust support for larger chests. They are also made from firm fabric that compresses and sculpts without discomfort. According to Forbes, Saint Somebody's designs combine two layers of fabric for seamless coverage as well. The combination lends a smoothing effect that flatters a wide range of body types.

Saint Somebody's suits include trendy cuts like one-shoulder one-pieces and attractive two-pieces that can be mixed and matched. The timeless silhouettes come in a range of simple colors, including black, olive, mustard, teal, and red. Fun leopard prints are also available for the wild woman at heart.

Size-inclusive swimwear brand Unika takes its name from the Latin word for "unique" (via Unika Swim). The Canadian luxury swimwear focuses on empowering women of all shapes and sizes to embrace their individuality. For the creators of Unika, comfort is key. Its clean-cut suits are available in sizes XS through 4XL with cup sizes ranging up to a G cup, per Hypebae. All suits are made from UV and SPF-proof ECONYL fabric and come in a variety of vibrant colors, including a comprehensive line of skin-tone shades.

The handmade suits are tailor-made through virtual or in-store fittings. They can be made from a range of fabrics, minimalistic styles, and fits, with additional padding or coverage available as needed. In addition to size-inclusivity and sustainable manufacturing practices, Unika is a champion for slow fashion. Its handmade suits are made to order in its Toronto shop, which reduces industry waste and avoids over-producing, according to Forbes.

Designer Mara Hoffman launched her size-inclusive clothing brand after graduating from the Parsons School of Design in New York City. Its size-inclusive garments are made with a focus on sustainability and ethical manufacturing processes in addition to advocating for racial equity, climate change, and social justice (via Mara Hoffman).

The brand's swimwear lines feature extended sizes up to 3X. From rashguards and triangle bikini tops to bottoms that range from cheeky to full coverage, there is a fit for everybody. Mara Hoffman suits feature vibrant, stylish patterns made from recycled nylon, Elastane, ECONYL, and Spandex. More conservative styles are also available, with textured jacquard fabrics in neutral colors.

Mara Hoffman offers a try-before-you-buy program with TryNow, allowing customers to skip the stressful fitting room experience for an at-home try-on session. Select up to eight pieces to try on at home, and keep them for up to seven days. The swimsuits that don't work can be sent back at no cost.

ASOS is a widely popular brand with clothing options in more than 30 sizes. In addition to extended sizing offered through the ASOS Curve collection, there are options for maternity, petite, and tall sizing.

ASOS Curve swimsuits are fun and youthful, featuring bold prints, and fun details like lace ties, ruffles, and sleeves.

The brand doesn't shy away from out-of-the-box designs. For example, many of the size-inclusive swimsuits are made from unique fabrics like velvet and satin for a touch of sophisticated elegance that feels as good as they look. Other cuts, such as its ASOS Design Curve Long-Sleeved Swimsuit, feature glorious puffy sleeves and a sleek, off-the-shoulder look that shows off the collarbones while providing plenty of coverage at the bust and bum. The on-trend suits in this collection range from a U.S. size 12 to 26 and are made primarily from elastane and polyester.

According to Chromat founder Becca McCharen-Tran, Chromat's vision has always been to expand upon the narrow beauty ideals of the past. The brand's fight to represent and celebrate women, femmes, non-binary people, and people with disabilities in swimwear has made waves in the fashion industry and helped its customers rebel against the industry's unrealistic beauty standards. The size-inclusive swimwear collection at Chromat is available in sizes 4X to XS. Fit is the main focus of the brand's designers. The brand frequently hosts fit tests with more than 500 people at a time to garner feedback on each collection, ensuring its designs are as comfortable and functional as they are stylish.

The innovative designs range from bold, fashion-forward statements with mesh, straps, revealing cut-outs, and sexy illusion necklines to more conservative swimwear with fuller coverage. According to The Lingerie Addict, Chromat's emphasis on structure, architectural lines, and a lush color palette give its suits an incredible shape and visual impact without sacrificing comfort or usability. As if its commitment to style, fit, and inclusivity weren't enough, Chromat is also a sustainable brand that utilizes regenerated nylon and enforces ethical, fair-wage practices in its manufacturing facilities.

The designs in the Knix swimwear collection are a mix of clean, classic cuts and more revealing silhouettes in an array of bright colors and trendy prints. Most feature built-in wireless bra support, while the Nylon and Spandex fabrics create a smoothing effect on the contours of the body. The four-way stretch of each suit allows the body to move comfortably, while the leakproof swimwear options catch up to 3 teaspoons of menstrual blood and light bladder leaks (via Knix).

CUUP also started as a revolutionary underwear brand. Tired of seeing the female form squeezed into garments that only fit certain body types, and the resulting harm to women's collective self-image, CUUP began engineering garments using measurements from real bodies (via CUUP). The brand's popular bra and underwear designs quickly made way for a size-inclusive swimwear collection, which features a broad range of cuts, styles, and flexible fit options to suit real women.

CUUP's swim tops cater to sizes 30A to 42H, with bottoms ranging from XS to 3XL in high-waisted and cheeky cuts. The suits come in over a dozen solid colors, from traditional black to vibrant blues and oranges. There are three different top styles to choose from: the Scoop Swim, the Balconette Swim, and the Plunge Swim. Scoop Swim tops feature a rounded neckline with adjustable bands and sensual, sculpted support. The Balconette Swim top has a more bra-like design with a wide set neckline and lightweight Flexwire for additional support. For a sexier silhouette, the Plunge Swim is a stylish option that offers minimal support and a deep-V neckline that shows off your curves.

Torrid has been a staple of the plus-size fashion industry since the early 2000s, providing women sizes 10 to 30 with on-trend, body-conscious wardrobe essentials, as noted by Racked.

The suits are designed to flatter and support, with Slim Fix technology that gently compresses and smooths (via Torrid).

Fashion to Figure offers trendy plus-size clothing and swimwear that is as affordable as it is sexy. The retailer has long provided technical fit that celebrates a woman's curves, per Fashion United, even partnering with celebrities like Gabrielle Union for some of its lines. The brand's designs cater to sizes 12 through 28 (via Fashion to Figure), although its focus is on creating fashionable garments that inspire its customers to embrace their bodies regardless of where they fall in a particular size range.

The swimwear collection at Fashion to Figure features a little bit of everything. The brand offers classic patterns, bold color block trends, edgy styles with revealing cutouts or fringe, and a variety of ultra-feminine cuts that flatter and soften. Its line of swim cover-ups adds a chic touch that complements any swimsuit in the collection. Luxury is a major focus of Fashion to Figure swimwear, but so is comfort. Its suits are made from ultra-soft fabric with four-way stretch that moves with the body for any outdoor activity. In addition, this innovative fabric is wrinkle and shrinkage-proof.

The fashion revolution continues with the inspiring swimwear designs of plus-size fashion retailer Eloquii. The brand's runway-inspired styles are constantly evolving to reflect the current trends, with a focus on achieving the perfect fit even after a garment has been launched.

Many of the suits also offer fixed foam cups and inner sling shell linings that offer extra support, smoothness, and shape. The brand has always offered swim designs that are as feminine and classy as they are striking and bold, broadcasting the belief that a woman shouldn't have to choose.

Swimsuits For All is a woman-owned brand made for women sizes 4 to 40.

The goal of each swimsuit, which can be found in sizes XS to XL, is to help people improve their body image and embrace the elements that make them unique.

Each swimsuit is created with Vita fabric, a sustainable Italian fabric made from post-consumer polyamide yarns and regenerated waste (via Carvico). This fabric is not only buttery-soft, but it is also resistant to chlorine and sunscreen, retains its shape, and contains UV protection for extra coverage during those long days in the sun. The collections are simple, featuring a mix of traditional one-pieces with peek-a-boo cutouts and sexy two-pieces that offer plenty of support. MIGA Swimwear offers suits in bright, bold colors, with accessories like adjustable belts and snap-on straps to help meet the needs of a variety of body needs.

Many size-inclusive swimwear brands focus their fit on cup size and tummy control. Kitty and Vibe do things a bit differently. It is the first brand to make swim bottoms based on hip and butt sizes, a revolutionary sizing model that Forbes claims to be the future of swimwear. Kitty and Vibe's swim collection consists of eight different bikini tops and bottoms which can be mixed and matched per the wearer's preferred fit and style (via Kitty and Vibe). Several one-piece options feature sexy cutouts, plunging necklines, and adorable crisscross back straps.

The standard one-piece suits come in sizes S to 3XL, with the option to alter the suit based on torso length. The bottoms come in sizes S to 5XL, with options to customize the fit based on smaller or larger booty sizes.

Additional options for long torsos and larger cup sizes are available depending on the style.

The majority of Lands' End customers are women around 55 years old (via Total Retail). As a result, the brand's swimsuits focus on functionality more suitable for the Gen X age group, providing traditional silhouettes that suit a variety of coverage requirements and on-trend styles.

According to Women's Wear Daily, Miaou's foray into sensual swimwear was a natural direction for its brand of "hot girl" fashion. The swimwear collection was inspired by owner Alexia Elkaim's globetrotting adventures, with influences from France to the California coast. During early COVID-19 lockdowns, Elkaim spent her days reimagining vintage swim styles in Miaou's signature prints to create an opulent, luxurious collection for everybody.

It features itty-bitty string bikinis, cheeky, high-rise bottoms with vibrant prints, and gorgeous one-pieces that take minimal coverage to a whole new level.

No one loves the swimsuit try-on experience, which is something LA-based lounge and swimwear brand LDLA understands. Instead of traditional swimsuit sizing, LDLA's size-inclusive swimsuits are named after goddesses, individuals who are traditionally the epitome of beauty and grace (via Common). Sizes range from Venus (size S) to Selene (size 3XL). The goal of this revolutionary and inclusive fit representation is to ensure that every person who tries on the brand's suits feels wonderfully made.

In addition to its numberless sizing, LDLA includes body-positive messages on its swimwear. This not-so-subliminal messaging reminds women wearing its suits that they are beautiful and beloved, exactly as they are. LDLA swimsuits are minimalistic, featuring timeless designs that smooth, flatter, and embrace every curve. The traditional one-pieces and sexy separates come in lovely shades of blue, green, red, and yellow. More or less coverage can be achieved by combining different designs.

In an interview with Today, Curvy Beach founder and plus-size model Elizabeth Taylor explains how she always knew something was missing in the swimwear market. According to HelloGiggles, Taylor was less than impressed with the high-waisted, full-coverage swimsuit options available to her, and wanted to create a plus-size string bikini line that mirrored the types of suits her smaller-sized friends were wearing.

Her first collection stemmed from her passion for 80's vintage silhouettes. The collection contains triangle, bandeau, and supportive scoop tops which can be paired with retro, side tie, and cheeky bottoms for a full range of coverage options. The tops feature incredibly versatile sizing that can be adjusted to fit a range of cup sizes. For example, Curvy Beach's 1X Triangle Top fits bra sizes 34B to 42E, while its 4X Triangle Top fits bra sizes 40H to 46J+. Other swim items like rash guards and swim dresses are available in sizes S to 4X.
