Summer is almost here, and one challenging task tops our to-do list: buying a swimsuit. There’s a lot to consider when buying a swimsuit online, but it doesn’t have to be a painful experience. There are plenty of cute and comfy styles out there—no matter what you’re looking for.
In our humble opinion, you can’t go wrong with a one-piece. Far from plain, it has shed its dowdy reputation to become one of the coolest, most in-demand bathing suit styles. One-pieces offer plenty of coverage, but also feature high-performance fabrics designed to stay put, built-in bras for extra support and a plethora of stylish details to make it stand out at the beach or by the pool.
If you’re ready to take the plunge, we’ve got you covered with the best one-piece bathing suits to add to your summer rotation.
This sporty swimsuit has a stylish half-zip detail at the front. It also features wide straps for extra support and a deep scoop back. It comes in baby blue, blush pink and black, and is available in sizes XS to 4X.
Ruffles add a touch of whimsy to this floral suit. The deep V-neck is flattering and balances out the full-coverage bottom. Whatever colour you're looking for, you're likely to find it as this bathing suit comes in 24 colours and patterns.
It has over 23,000 5-star reviews on Amazon, with fans of the style noting its affordable price, flattering pleating at the waist and comfortable stretch.
With its button-up front, this swimsuit doubles up as a stylish bodysuit. It's ideal for packing light on your next getaway. Pair it with denim shorts for casual outings, or with wide-leg linen pants for dinner. It comes in 12 colours, including timeless staples like white, black and red.
The belt detail on this sky-blue one-piece swimsuit defines the waist. We love the straps, which can easily be adjusted and tied into bows to add interest to the back.
Known for its leakproof underwear, Knix is taking its expertise to swimwear—this one-piece has the same absorption power as one tampon. It has a lace-up, corset-style back and side panels that help define the waist, plus built-in sun protection of UPF 50+.
This swimsuit is the perfect balance of sporty and stylish. The racerback design stays put in the water, while the lavender floral pattern looks great when lounging poolside. It features a built-in bra for added support, as well as UPF 50+ sun protection.
The best part? It’s currently on sale for just $23.
Made from an ultra-soft recycled nylon blend in this season’s most-wanted hue, this one-piece is a delight to wear. It’s cut high on the leg to elongate the silhouette, while still providing ample coverage.
With cut-outs and button details at the sides, this low-back swimsuit makes a statement. It’s made with a blend of elastane and a sustainable, cotton-like fabric derived from castor oil.
Available in eight colours and patterns, this full-coverage, quick-drying swimsuit is made to support you through a day of swimming, paddling and lounging. It has a built-in bra with removable cups and a racerback with a stylish cut-out. It also features UPF 50+ to protect against the sun.
The ribbed fabric, plunging neckline and mesh panels give this black one-piece swimsuit a trendy update. The straps are adjustable for a custom fit and extra support.
