We love the cross-front twist on this bikini top, which is made to lift and support your chest. The back has a hook-and-eye closure and adjustable straps for a comfortable and customizable fit. You can select from several different bottom styles from the brand, including many matching colors, making this a great mix-and-match option. This bikini comes in three color options, too.

News flash: Chic black and white designs like this Good American bikini are *so* on-trend. It’s a swimsuit I’d imagine Meredith Blake from The Parent Trap would own in her collection. There’s something about a contrast trim, especially when it’s in white piping against a black material, that screams timeless sophistication to me. Elegance aside, it also has a sportiness to it that may be a result of the scoop neck top or the bottom’s high hip placement and moderate coverage.

A classic you’ll wear over and over again, this cute one-piece has side ruching which will flatter your curves and accentuate your waist. The straps are adjustable, and the bum has medium coverage if you like a little cheekiness. It comes in a 11 color options, and it’s so easy to wear this style with linen pants to lunch or dinner. A couple reviewers mention that the sizing might be inconsistent, so refer to the brand’s size chart before purchasing. “I usually wear a 10, sometimes a 12, so I purchased a 14 knowing swimsuits run small. It fits perfectly and is very flattering and comfortable,” one shopper writes.

If you’re a busty gal, then you know how much of a struggle it is to find a supportive swimsuit top that won’t create an ‘oopsies’ moment the instant you dive into the pool or lift your arms. Enter: Freya’s Nomad Nights bikini top, which is designed specifically for larger bust sizes in mind with a size range from 30D to 38G. It has a sweetheart neckline that’ll tastefully show off your bust and padded cups for extra support. Speaking of support, the straps are adjustable, minimizing any aches and back pain you might normally suffer from when wearing other bikinis with less support.

If you’re an avid shapewear enthusiast, you’re going to love this one-piece. It’s made to sculpt, and the mesh paneling on either side offers a sexy addition to the suit. The brand uses its Miratex fabric, which is designed to hold and shape your body. “This is a bathing suit that lives up to the hype,” reports one happy customer. “I am thrilled that I have finally found a bathing suit that has a fitted bra and that does not make me look frumpy. The bra holds the bust up well and looks classy. The sheer panels add glamour to this bathing suit and, yet, they are still able to give your body a beautiful hourglass figure.”

For those looking for something a little sexier, this is at the top of my list. The crisscross paneling down the cleavage is oh-so sexy—plus super stretchy—and the polka-dot pattern is simply darling. The bottoms have a cheeky, high cut and the straps are adjustable to give your chest even more support.

The cups on this suit have a striking V-wire frame for a small plunge detail that will feel supportive during a full day at the beach. This vibrant suit is a halter style with tie straps at the top and back that can be tightened for optimal support. I’m loving the tangerine shade and the nylon and spandex fabric. The bottoms have the same flexible material and boast a small amount of bum scrunching for some added definition.

Not only am I absolutely obsessed with this periwinkle shade for summer, but I can’t stop staring at the cut-outs, which are super cute without being too revealing. “This bathing suit makes me feel so confident, and I love the adjustable tie in the back! It seriously sucks you in in all the right places and is perfectly high cut,” says one Nordstrom reviewer. In line with the low neckline and back, the bottom provides cheeky coverage that doesn’t feel too risqué or revealing in the slightest. There are tie back straps for extra support, and fortunately the shoulder straps are adjustable, which is great news for customizing your fit.

This bold leopard print suit is as stylish as it gets, and you can even mix and match the pieces if you want to break up the animal print. The sweetheart style top incorporates the coolest whipstitch detailing that makes for a memorable ‘kini, and the high-waist bottoms have a cheeky coverage that feels totally ‘80s-inspired. And don’t worry, it’s available in a sleek black colorway, too, for anyone who doesn’t want to embrace the fully Mob Wife aesthetic.

I’m loving this timeless striped suit for summer. The center cut-out may leave you with a funny tan line, but I think it’s totally worth it for how cute it is. The peek-a-boo top is connected at the bust (hello, boob support), and the straps tie into a halter around the neck. The bottoms have medium to cheeky coverage, so if you prefer your cheeks totally concealed, you may want to opt for a different style.

If the standard string bikini is more your speed, you’ll love this one that’s adorned in a floral motif that’ll look great in photos. The ties along the back, neck and hips are all adjustable, so you can tailor its fit to your body, and the bra padding is removable. The bottoms are pretty cheeky and low rise, and the string ties accentuate your shape and help the suit not sag when it gets wet.

I’ve been seeing a lot of lingerie-inspired swimwear this year, and this one-piece from Norma Kamali is totally going in my cart. The whole suit has a sultry mesh paneling overlay that snakes down the bodice, following the curvature of the one-shoulder line. The bottoms have moderate to full bum coverage, so you can feel covered yet oh-so sexy in your one-piece.

Balconette style tops are huge this year, and I love this modern take on the ‘50s-esque, tropical vibe. This modest bikini has thin underwire, slender straps and a hook-and-eye closure in the back. You’ll be able to adjust these straps, but because of the unpadded cups you may not get much of a lift, if that’s what you’re looking for. Still,  the lilac-colored top stitching and white trip above the bust line will naturally draw the eye towards the girls. The leggy high-waist bottoms are slightly cheeky, providing enough coverage and some tummy control while giving you legs for days.

This ruched top is a great choice if you don’t want a full-on one-piece but aren’t looking for a bikini either. This ruched tankini is ultra-flattering and has adjustable straps and a twist-front V-neckline that’ll look especially great on people with smaller chests. There are multiple bottom styles from this brand, but we’d go for a low-rise option since the tank top is waist-length.

This adorable two-piece is sure to emphasize your tan thanks to the light blue pastel shade. The cups on the top have darts that will help the suit fit your chest more snuggly and avoid any sagging when wet. The underbust band adds some extra fabric if you prefer more coverage, and the bottoms are low rise and have the same ribbed material as the top.

I love this unique one-piece, from the wide-open back to the cap sleeves and plunge neckline. It has a hook-and-eye closure around the neck and the bottoms are medium to full coverage. The stretchy, comfortable and lightweight ribbed material is comprised of nylon and spandex, so it should conform to your body with no issue regardless of your activity, from tanning to swimming laps. What’s more, the snap-front closure is functional, so you can choose to button or unbutton the fixtures to play around with the coverage.

PureWow editors are big fans of Andie Swim, and this suit has a cute crisscross back and scoop neckline. The bum has medium coverage and reviewers say the material is super supportive. “This suit is really nice quality!” says PureWow’s Director of Special Projects and Branded Content, Rachel Gulmi. “You can tell by the look and feel of the material that it’ll last way more than one beach season (praise be). The style is classic yet modern, and I love the crisscross straps on the back.”

A mix of sporty and sexy, this two-piece is a great summer pick. The brand mentions the material is supportive and the cups are removable if you don’t want too much padding around your bust. I especially love the tie, low-waist bottoms for a sportier vibe.

The lacquered buckle detail on the chest is very ‘60s and so is the vibrant green, though it does come in a stark white that’ll look fabulous on a bride-to-be. The waist has a seam to give some more shape to your body and the plunging neckline adds a bit of sexiness. The back is mostly open, and the straps can be tightened for a more customizable fit. The hips have a slightly higher cut, which effortlessly elongates the legs, and the bottoms offer medium bum coverage.

This crewneck suit is a cute option, especially since you can unzip the front almost to the waistline if you want to show a little more skin. It has a sporty look whether you’re swimming laps or just lounging by the pool. The inside has a powermesh lining for extra support, too. The bottom is full coverage, and you can grab it in four colors: khaki, black, night sky and cobalt. “The most awesome thing about this suit though (for me, anyway) is it’s padded! I’m a 30E and want at least a little support and this suit provides that,” says one reviewer.

Not only am I in love with this fiery red shade, but this one-piece is made to support your chest with a built-in shelf bra with removable cups and durable material. Its ribbed material features darting along the front to further accentuate your figure, and the bottoms are moderate coverage, while the square neckline is quite sexy. And if you’re not into this bold Baywatch shade, you’re sure to like the black and white shades. I also like that it comes with a removable belt to snatch your waist if you please, and that the tie straps are fully adjustable.

A classic strapless one-piece is never going to go out of style. This one has ruching along the bodice and a full-coverage bottom. If you do want the support of a strap though, this suit comes with a removable one you can hook on either side of the suit top and around your neck. “It is flattering in that it covers some of the areas that I like to cover up,” writes one customer. “I wore it with straps, but it is more comfortable, of course, without them. [It’s] well-made and washes well.”

Swim skirts are a cute way get more coverage without sacrificing on style, whether you’re wearing one over your suit or by itself with a bikini top. This skirt has bikini bottoms built and has a high-waist, flirty, flared fit that won’t cling to your body uncomfortably. The material is nice and stretchy, and it comes in two colors (black and blue) that will pair nicely with your favorite swimwear tops.

Maternity swimwear doesn’t have to be boring just to fit your bump, which is why I think this Princess Diana-esque blue swimsuit is a total winner. It has tie straps decorated with gold hardware for a sleek touch. Plus, the sides are ruched for a flattering fit and the bottom has medium coverage. I love the low neckline (just because you’re pregnant doesn’t mean you have to hide your body, right?) and the suit comes in three colors.
