Extra Large Women's Swimwear

Styles of Swimsuits

Don’t feel relegated to matronly one-piece styles in dull colors if that’s not you. Keep shopping around until you find a bathing suit you like and that defines your personal fashion sense. You can even sport a bikini if you like – there are two-piece suits that will make the most of your curves if you wear them with confidence. Consider these types of tops and bottoms and choose the most flattering for your shape:

• Halter top: The deep V-neckline is lengthening, perfect for petite plus size women. If you have a very full bust and require support up top, it’s best to choose suits with built-in supportive cups.
• Bandeau top: This top goes straight across, which is good for showing off beautiful shoulders. It also works for women with smaller busts.
• Skirted bottom: If you want to cover your hips and thighs, there are plenty of skirted suit options. Dark skirts without patterning is the best way to not draw attention to this area if it’s not your favorite feature.
• Tankini: This style offers more coverage than a bikini, but has all the conveniences of a two-piece suit. You can find tankinis with high-cut bottoms or skirted bottoms.

This makes it easy to zero in on the style you want. Beyond that, Swimsuits Just for Us sells suits that are anything but boring. The Santorini Chocolate Side-Tie suit features a rich, brown patterning and solid bottom, which will keep the focus on your top half. The diagonal movement in the side-tie creates flattering waist shaping as well. A Luxe 5-way Tie Convertible suit gives you several ways to wear the top; you can wear it strapless, as a halter or bandeau. In addition, the loose, flowing top of this suit won’t cling to your body, which is good for full figured gals who don’t want to emphasize their midsection. A Body Type system also suggests which suits are best for different body shapes, whether you’re a triangle, hourglass, rectangle or circle.

• Swimsuits for All: This site offers bathing suits in just about every color and pattern you could imagine, so there’s something for everyone. A suit like Delta Burke’s Accelerate features patterning on the top of this one-piece and a dark bottom, along with tummy control for an attractive fit. You can also go mod in the Mod Squad Tankini. Allover black is slimming, but bright yellow accents in just the right places add some punch to this style.
• Love Your Peaches: If you’re looking for that perfect full figured bikini, look no further. You’ll find several two-piece styles as well as one-piece suits that will have you looking fashionable poolside.
