Swimsuit for plus size
Which swimsuit is best for plus size?
Everyone’s body is unique and beautiful in its own way, and everyone has areas they would like to emphasise or disguise. The type of swimsuit that’s best for you will depend more on the shape of your body than on your size. Whether you’re splashing in the ocean or lounging on the sand, the secret to feeling confident is to choose a swimsuit style that draws attention to your best features. Control swimwear such as a bikini with cups gives extra support while ruffles, stripes and polka dots help to camouflage problem areas. At Banana Moon, our women’s swimwear selection comes in a wider range of women’s than you find in high street shops, so everyone can enjoy fun in the sun.
The best plus size swimsuits for women
Emphasise your curves with a plus size bikini. Bikini tops with underwire are supportive for a generous bust while high waist pants camouflage a plump midsection. All our bikinis tops and bottoms are sized separately so whatever your body shape, you can mix and match to achieve an ideal fit.
Black is a classic choice that instantly slims the silhouette. A black halterneck bikini with a wide strap flatters your voluptuous curves. High waist pants might be the obvious choice to complete the look but side tie briefs are a flattering option that you might not have considered. The adjustable ties mean they will always fit you perfectly without digging in.
A one-piece tummy control swimsuit will sculpt your curves but swimsuits with a plunge neck are equally flattering for plus sizes. Look out for bathing suits with ruffles, bright prints and embroidery to draw the eye upwards. A tankini is a good solution: to disguise large arms, a top with a high neck and long sleeves gives added coverage.
The best plus size swimsuits for men
Our men’s swimwear selection includes an array of plus size swim shorts and swimming trunks. Our swim shorts are designed with a supportive net lining and a drawstring waist for a comfortable fit. Capture a retro look with swimshorts in exuberant tropical prints or go for swimwear in a solid colour such as red, black, or dark blue for understated elegance. Blue, pink or yellow stripes are a flattering choice for plus sizes as they visually lengthen the body: just add a linen shirt in a solid colour for a beach to bar cover-up.
