1. A flouncy lace-up monokini with details that make it stand out from the rest. The off-the-shoulder top and the lace-up going down the middle!? LOVE!
Promising review: "As I pushed 'add to cart' on this swimsuit, I did so with an eye roll and a sigh — I've seen this design on a few different sites claiming it's one of the 'great bathing suits' for the summer, but there was no way this was going to work on me, right? Well, I can take back the eye roll and sigh--not only does it fit, but it makes me look dang good. The material on this suit is nice and thick, you can adjust the strings in the front to show more or less skin, and so far it has managed to adequately cover my booty despite me roaming around the house in it to try it out. I'm smitten--surprised too--but smitten." —Rachel green
Get it from Amazon for $22.99+ (available in sizes XS–XXL, plus sizes 18–24, and in 24 styles).
2. A two-toned swimsuit which features some side cut-out action plus a one shoulder design that's a total ~lewk~.
Promising review: "Love this suit and get compliments on it all the time. Not cheeky at all, and I don’t have to worry about anything popping out while playing in the pool with kids. I am usually a medium but sized up to a large because I have a long torso and didn’t want a permanent wedgie. Fit was really great!" —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $22.99+ (available in sizes S-XL and in 42 colors).
3. A lemon print plunge swimsuit that'll quench your thirst for a new go-to one piece. It's got thick and comfortable straps that are easily adjustable and is made of material with SPF 50+ sun protection!
Kitty and Vibe is a small business that uses recycled materials for their swimsuits and their packaging. They were also the first brand to make bikini bottoms based on butt size. You can take their fit quiz to find out more about your proper sizing!
Promising review: "I love the plunge one piece! The swimsuit material is thick and high quality, and the lemon print is all that I've dreamed of...There was definitely enough coverage in the back for me, and the plunge+halter back added enough to keep things interesting ;) so happy with my purchase!" —Katy N.
Get it from Kitty and Vibe for $98 (available in sizes S–3X and in two patterns).
4. A bandeau one piece with removable straps so you can avoid the tan lines when you want to and get the extra support when you need to.
Promising review: "I was looking for a bandeau top. Sick of suits that don’t hold up [my breasts] without breaking your neck to tie a good knot or they dig in your neck from the halter tops strings. This did not disappoint!...Let me tell you this thing is perfect!!! Not too tight or big anywhere and it holds [my boobs] up without the straps...can’t wait to order more colors!" —Erica Lynn
Get it from Amazon $25.99+ (available in sizes S–3X and 29 colors/patterns)
5. A pretty swim dress because it may just be the most comfortable option on this list. There are shorts *attached* underneath, making it the perfect one-piece. Imagine lounging by the water in this?? No cares in the world, just relaxing vibes.
Promising reviews: "This bathing suit is SOOO comfortable! It's [cute] and very good quality. When you choose your size, follow the sizing chart and you can't go wrong...It's perfect. It's very hard to find swimsuits for myself. I don't typically write reviews but I am hoping this will help someone like myself." —Kindle Customer
"I wanted a suit that could look like a sundress and double as a swimsuit for a Hawaii trip...It fits as expected and is very comfortable. I was worried about the length of the body, being one piece, but it is very stretchy, and fits fine. I could easily see wearing it all day. It seems well made, and the material is thick (not see through)." —CeCe
Get it from Amazon for $39.99 (available in sizes S–6X and in 25 colors/patterns).
6. A ruffled faux wrap one piece that many reviewers say has thick and compressive material. And isn't it the best when your swimsuit feels secure and isn't see-through?
Promising review: "I am very curvy and have a hard time finding swimsuits that fit me well. This swimsuit was incredibly comfy and super cute. I'm also obsessed with the mustard yellow color. I would highly recommend." —Melissa Younger
"I love this bathing suit!...First of all, [it fits SO well] and the bottom doesn’t cut into my hips. The straps can be adjusted, which is great to accommodate all sizes on top. I’m also SO impressed with the thick quality of the material. When you’re buying anything white, the see-through factor can be an issue, but you don’t have to worry about that with this suit. I’m so happy I found it!" —Femia Scarfone
Get it from Amazon for $29.99+ (available in sizes XS–XXL and in eight colors).
7. A scallop trim cutout swimsuit with chic peek-a-boo opening in the front and back (because somehow this swimsuit can get even cuter). The bottom half is complete with the scallop edge design too, so be prepared to be stopped by strangers who give you nonstop compliments.
Promising reviews: "I find the scallop detail SO [cute] because it does not dig into the skin, leaving a more smooth look. Midsize and it's mom-approved." —Balkanina

"I LOVE IT! I was debating for a couple of days about this bathing suit and I kept reading the reviews and just went for it. I am absolutely in love. I just had a baby almost a year ago and I’ve been feeling a little insecure and this bathing suit made me feel great again. It [fits great], has a nice little cheeky vibe going. I love it. If you’re debating, just get it." —Emss
Get it from Amazon for $24.99+ (available in sizes S–XL and in 16 colors).

Promising reviews: "I love this swimsuit and it’s a great price!...It fit perfectly! The straps are adjustable and the lace in front is too so you can adjust it to get the perfect fit. The torso length was just right and it fit snug and felt secure. I am so comfortable in it and I feel great! It’s super cute and I highly recommend it." —Lauren

Get it from Amazon for $29.99+ (available in sizes XS–XXL and in 10 colors).

Promising review: "I've never order any type of apparel online and haven't shopped for a swimsuit in at least eight years, but I decided to take a chance on this one and I'm so glad I did!...This suit is cute but still a little sexy and it is amazingly comfortable! The ruching [is great], the contoured cups add just enough shape without over-padding, and the shorts cover just enough and don't create bulges on the upper thighs. I was also feeling bold when I ordered and opted for a color I would never usually wear, and I even love the bold red color...this is about to be my go-to suit for every occasion!" —Christy N.
Get it from Amazon for $30.99 (available in sizes S–4X and in nine colors).

Get it from Amazon for $30.99+ (available in sizes 4–16 and 46 colors/styles).
17. A gingham print tie-shoulder swimsuit because no bathing suit collection is complete without the pattern of the summer, but because of the ~perfect~ cut and supportive underwire bra, the solid colors are too good to ignore.

29. A plunging swimsuit that's totally backless (for dramatic effect, of course). This best seller has over 10,000 positive reviews, too!
Promising review: "First I want to say that I RARELY write reviews but I am doing so in the hopes that others with my body type (short, plus-sized, AND top-heavy) will find this useful. This particular swimsuit is very well made! The colors are as vibrant as the picture, the material is thick like a typical swimsuit, and the breast area's lining feels as though it is doubled up. I have a size 38 HH (UK)/38 N (US) bra. Now, with that being said, a natural HH/N cup is NOT typical, so I was pleasantly surprised with the amount of coverage that I got. The bottom is full coverage if you don't have much 'under cheek' as I like to call it. I will probably be ordering from them again! 😉" —VA_Gurl
Get it from Amazon for $21.99+ (available in sizes S–3X and in 24 styles).
