1. A customizable tie-back monokini perfect for the person who's ready to fully subscribe to vacay vibes only. An all-in-one look to celebrate the days getting longer? *Adds to wishlist.*
Promising review: "This is my favorite bathing suit of all time. I am 5'8" and often one-piece bathing suits are too short and are not comfortable. This one is flexible in the sense that you tie the strings where it suits you and therefore make it tighter or looser depending on your height or how large-chested you are. It's a super nice design and just gorgeous all around. I ended up buying two more in different colors. I went in to the beach, pools, and cenotes while on my honeymoon, and this baby didn't fade in color or get warped in any way. Love it!!!" —Natty
Get it from Amazon for $23.79+ (available in sizes S–XL and 33 colors).
2. A one-piece bathing suit which, gird your loins here, can go from the beach to the bar and back again because its trendy design disguises itself as a mini dress!
Promising review: "DO NOT hesitate, buy this bathing suit! You will thank me later lol. I’m a breastfeeding mom with HUGE boobs! This suit covers and supports me. It’s super cute and the material is thick. I would buy more as my go-to dresses! ALSO, I never take the time to write a novel like this, BUT I’ve worked for a high-end swimsuit company for years and can tell you I have never found something that holds and gives coverage like this suit does. For anybody on the fence, just give it a shot!" —Brittany S
Get it from Amazon for $28.99+ (available in sizes XL–5XL and 20 patterns).
3. A high-cut swimsuit equally as divine to one you might find in a James Bond movie. The time for *your* slo-mo, emerging-from-the-water scene (aka TikTok) is now.
Promising review: "This suit is so cute. I ordered a large based on the reviews and it fits perfectly. The whole suit is so comfy. It’s thick and feels more expensive than it really is. The top is small for me, which I expected — my chest is a little squished, but I’m going to rock it." —Grace Troutman
Get it from Amazon for $29.99 (available in sizes S–XXL and in 19 colors).
4. A ruffly tie-back swimsuit, which will be just dreamy paired with warmer weather. Asking for a friend: Is there a better way to celebrate sunnier days other than treating ourselves to designer-inspired swimming attire?
Promising review: "OMG!! I never buy clothes from Amazon, but my friend bought this suit and couldn't stop raving about it, so I figured for the price I'd try it....This suit is AMAZING!!! The fit is great, I have a little bit of a longer torso and no issues with the size. The quality is so good!" —Becca
Get it from Amazon for $29.99 (available in women's sizes XS–XXL and in 17 colors).
5. A triangle top and high-waisted bottom duo so classic and sophisticated, you might not mind answering emails from the beach because, in this, you'll feel like a total b-o-s-s.
Promising review: "The color is true, beautiful, and vibrant. The material is excellent and not see-through at all. The top does not have any underwire, so be aware of that. Straps are adjustable and can hold you up, but I’m not sure how well if you're extremely top heavy. The bottoms are great. The front has this crinkly look with the material. I love this so much that I’m going to order another color." —2CuteKidzinCali
Get it from Amazon for $27.99+ (available in sizes XL–4XL and eight colors).
6. A fruity crochet set reviewers are commending for its look, fit, and quality. BRB, just gonna go daydream about how perfect this would've been in our lord and savior Harry Styles' music video....
Favorite Little Corner is a small shop based in Los Angeles that crafts handmade crochet items for festival, fantasy, and swimwear.
And a heads-up: Some reviewers mention ordering a size up in the top!
Promising review: "Y’all, I am so impressed!! The quality is AMAZING! Don’t hesitate to buy!! It looks so good on! If you have any concerns, just ask! The owner is very polite and quick to reply!! I support Favorite Little Corner. I posted a picture to show how well it fits, the amazing quality, and the bright color as well! Not only is the top adorable, but the packing was as well! Thank you so much again!!" —laramiepetzold
Get it from Favorite Little Corner on Etsy for $87+ (available in sizes A–DDD in the top and S–L in the bottoms).
7. A backless retro-inspired suit still making waves on the internet and a style we've been applauding on our team for some time (see below!).
Peep our write-up about why this just might be *the* best bathing suit on the interwebs.
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. 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 $29.99+ (available in sizes S–3XL and in 24 colors).
8. A high-leg swimsuit constructed specifically so you can have your very own Baywatch moment since the temps have been heating up. Plus it's just a solid, seamless look that everyone needs at least one of in their collection.
Promising review: "I am OBSESSED with this bathing suit! What an amazing buy! It is so form-fitting, amazing quality material, and great packaging. They even gave a complimentary pack of metallic tattoos. This is my second bathing suit from this company, and I want to get a few other colors now." –Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $27.98+ (available in sizes S–XXL and in 38 colors).
9. A scalloped-edge one-strap bikini for an Instagrammable silhouette that pairs perfectly with a refreshing mojito and oceanside view.
Promising review: "First of all, I never write reviews, but this suit is beyond amazing, so I felt like I needed to share! I hate swimsuits, hate shopping for them, and especially hate putting them on. This is by far the most comfortable and adorable suit I have ever put on. I am in love! I sized up, and it fits perfectly! I am a mom of three little ones, so I am constantly running around in a suit, and this stays put, and as I mentioned before, it is so comfortable. I want it in all the colors now!!!" —Michael A. Byrd
Get it from Amazon for $25.66+ (available in sizes S–XL and in seven colors in both single- and dual-strapped suits).
10. A faux-wrap colorblock one-piece beachgoers will be turning their heads for. And you? Oh, you'll just be humbly basking in the glory while dressed in something so effortless, yet so chic.
Promising review: "I wasn’t expecting this level of perfection!! This is now my new favorite suit. The greens and white are beautiful, it sits perfectly on my hips and waist, and the straps are the perfect length. The tie isn’t really a tie, so it won’t come loose while you're swimming. It’s just a little bit cheeky but covers enough to feel sexy. The material is a good thickness and soft. I’m so, so happy." —bbywilk
Get it from Amazon for $32.99 (available in sizes XS–XXL and 17 colors).
11. A fun and colorful ruffle two-piece featuring a shoulder-shielding style that's functional for a weekend of boating, yet so fashionable it will elicit the question, "Where did you get that?"
Promising review: "Best swimsuit I've bought online! Buy it for the top alone! I bought this suit and absolutely love it! The top is so cute that I've worn it by itself and received tons of compliments. It fits great and provides a lot of support, which is nice. The material is thick as well, and I felt very comfortable in it. The bottoms are adorable and high-waisted and fit great. It runs true to size, and the colors are vibrant. Overall, love this suit!" —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $32.99 (available in sizes S–XL and 19 colors).
12. An underwire tropical-themed one piece ready for a dip or a day of sightseeing. Because flowy white pants paired with this... *gah* that's sophistication at its finest.
Promising review: "I bought this for an upcoming trip to Hawaii. It fits perfect and is by far my favorite bathing suit from Torrid." —Torrid Customer
Get it from Torrid for $82.12 (originally $109.50; available in sizes 00X–6X and cup sizes C/D–DD/F).
13. A '50s-inspired ruched bikini perfect if you're the person who's always spearheading a beach volleyball tournament, *or* if you're the person who's just there to spectate.
Promising review: "LOVE THIS!! I’ve never liked wearing two-piece suits. This suit is so fun! The top and bottom leave a small amount of midriff exposed. The top is super secure, so you don’t have to worry about it popping off when you dive in the water. It’s cute enough to wear with a skirt, too, when you want to take a break at a beachfront restaurant." —Erica
Get it from Amazon for $30.99 (available in sizes 4–14 and 10 colors).
14. A ribbed bandeau one-piece with a cutesy cutout and tie-up waist that reviewers have been left drooling over. Plus, you have the option to add straps for extra support in case you plan on taking a dip head-first.
Promising review: "I'm 5'7" with a DD chest size and this may be the best one-piece I've ever worn. I feel super comfortable, confident, and covered in this suit and I will definitely be purchasing more in this style!" —Aerie Customer
Get it from Aerie for $35.97 (originally $59.95; available in sizes XXS–XXL and additionally in long sizes).
15. A cropped rash guard top and high-waisted bottom set that will probably make you the envy of everyone at the pool. Because you, style queen, have figured out the code to staying covered (see ya, shoulder burn) and looking chic as hell.
Promising review: "Loved this suit! I went to Mexico on vacation and was concerned with getting too much sun. The top was perfect, and I was expecting to hate the bottoms, but they fit and looked great for my frame! Not only was this functional but super cute, and I received a lot of compliments. I also did not get sunburned laying on the beach all day." —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $34.99+ (available in sizes 4–16 and in 12 colors).
16. A high-waisted and tasseled two-piece bathing suit for a festive fit that will look divine while you're sitting by a pool or frolicking in the Pacific.
Promising review: "This is much better quality than I had thought it would be. I had almost purchased a designer suit to ensure a good fit, but I’m glad I opted to try this one first! It does run a little small to me. The top waist part is a little tight but not uncomfortable at all. Would definitely recommend!" —Elyse Taylor
Get it from Amazon for $29.99+ (available in sizes 4–16 and in 18 colors).
17. A scoop neck floral suit you'll pack for vacay but will reach for again and again since it will look like a glorious bodysuit paired with allll the denim shorts and pants you have folded up in your dresser.
18. A flowy two-piece with some fun printed high-waisted bottoms and top options here to inspire you to draft that "out of office" email before you've even booked your next vacation.
19. A groovy scoop-neck, high-waisted set that I'm convinced has put me in a trance since I began writing this post. And I think it worked, because I've somehow persuaded myself that I now *need* this in my swimwear collection...

Get it from TheVelvetParty for $56+ (available in sizes XS–XL).
20. A vintage-style peplum tankini and high-waisted bottom set created with 5-star-resort elegance, without the corresponding price tag.
Promising review: "I purchased three of these swimsuits for a cruise, and I loved everything about them. I’ve never liked one-pieces, especially trying to put them on or taking them off to go the bathroom. So I decided on a two-piece. The bottom was comfortable as well as the top. I was worried about the top since I’m top heavy, but it fit really nice. I would purchase again in a heartbeat. Got a lot of compliments, and I felt confident walking around in just the swimsuit." —Sweet Evet
Get it from Amazon for $31.98+ (available in sizes L–4X and 13 colors).
21. A splurgeworthy Fe Noel puff-sleeve swimsuit, if you happen to have room in the vacation budget to put towards an investment that will blow allll other swimsuits out of the water.

Promising review: "I love this bathing suit! The gingham is very cute and can be dressed up with gold accessories or a red lip. The bottoms aren’t too cheeky, and I felt comfortable wearing the bathing suit around families and my friends' parents." —Amazon Customer
Get it from Amazon for $24.99 (available in sizes XS–L and three colors).
23. A ruffle-strapped polka dot number you might have a hard time keeping still in, because this stunner will make you wanna twirl all over the Mediterranean.
Promising review: "I’m really loving this suit!! It’s classic in that it covers everything, and I don’t feel like I’m popping out. But also has a little something else with the style of the straps. I also love the contrasting colors; it makes me feel confident and also stylish." —Tara D.
Get it from Summersalt for $95 (available in sizes 2–22 and five colors).
24. A darling ruffled tankini set featuring a layered top and comfy shorts for days when you want to wear something that mimics your everyday clothes — but make them sea- and sand-proof.
Promising review: "Love this bathing suit. I am not one to show too much skin, so I was looking for a new bathing suit I would feel comfortable in while in Hawaii. The bottoms are cute little high-rise shorts that fit nicely. The top has a fun flowy look, allowing me to feel comfortable but look cute at the same time. It also was a nice top to just wear while walking along the beach and shops. Definitely recommend this for those looking to stay comfy and not worry about showing off too much skin!" —Kassy
Get it from Amazon for $25.09+ (available in sizes XS–24 and 38 colors).

This comes with a bikini top, bottoms, and a cover-up!
Promising review: "I absolutely love this bikini and cover-up!! I’m usually a lil' skeptical about ordering clothes online because I never know how it’s gonna fit, but the reviews were all really good. It fits literally so perfect. Very happy with this purchase. :)" —Cianna
Get it from Amazon for $16.99+ (available in sizes S–L and seven colors).
28. An off-shoulder silhouette with removable straps and some strappy bottoms, that has left over 12,000 people heart-eyed. And we can't blame them — I'm just thinking about how wonderful this would be in the sun, under the sea, and on the sand *drool*.
Promising review: "I LOVE this !!! I ordered it mainly for the top because I was a little skeptical of the bottoms, the way they were cut and whatnot, because I am curvy, and the model is not LOL. But when I put them on, they looked great and felt great! I've also worn the top with pants and made an outfit!" —Shana McDaniel
Get it from Amazon for $21.99 (available in sizes XS–22 and 37 colors).
