Your Guide to Plus
Size Swimwear
If you're going to the beach, staying at hotel
with a pool, or simply want to lie in the sun, you'll want to look for swimwear
that provides you both comfort and good looks. Plus size swimsuits are
available online in a variety of styles and colors. You'll want to select
a style that flatters your curves and covers other areas.
Swimwear comes in one-piece and two-piece styles.
Skirtsuits provide more modesty while flattering your upper body curves.
Tankinis provide more coverage of the belly than bikinis while offering the
freedom of the two-piece style. You'll also want to consider
whether your swimsuit should have an underwire or soft cup for support.
Plus size swimwear comes in a variety of fabrics.
A nylon and lycra blend provides excellent stretchability and easy care.
If you will be swimming in pools, consider a swimsuit made of Cloroban to resist
fading from chlorine.
