Best Swimsuits for Women Over 50

Whether you’re searching for full coverage options, one-piece swimsuits, or high-waisted bottoms that offer tummy control, we’ve got you covered! Here are some of our favorite options for the most flattering swimsuits for older women.

A traditional one-piece can be the perfect option for someone who wants to cover up and feel the slimming effects of a bathing suit. This traditional one-piece, the Textured Spa Girl Leg Swimsuit by Maxine, features a figure-flattering shirred front that offers full coverage, and a slim, comfortable fit. The tummy control lining keeps the waist in, and the wider straps offer more comfort for those long days on the beach.

If you’re looking for a bathing suit option that covers like a one-piece but comes in a bottom and top design, try a fun tankini and mid-rise brief bottoms. This gives you a chance to mix and match pieces if you want to style your top with different colored bottoms, and vice versa.

For example, you can pair the Moonlight Tropics Double Tier Tankini Top by Maxine with the Mid-Rise Swim Brief by 24th and Ocean. The top features a tropical flower design and a side-knotted overlay. The mid-rise bottoms have a wide waistband for great belly coverage and ultimate comfort. Both work well together and can be paired with other options, too!

Looking for a one-piece bathing option that’s trendier than the traditional? Show a little more skin with a fun bandeau bathing suit. The Fantasy Island Ruffle Bandeau Maillot Swimsuit from Bleu by Rod Beattie is a colorful and unique strapless one-piece option that features a fun tropical leaf pattern and ruffled accents from the waistline to the bustline. Designed to fit your curves perfectly, this swimsuit is a great way to cover up your midsection and still create a lovely silhouette that screams confidence.

Have you ever taken a swim skort for a spin? When paired with a high-neck tankini, this bathing suit combination can give you all of the coverage you need on the beach while sporting a fun and stylish look along the way. Consider the Feathers And Flair High Neck Tankini Top by Maxine paired with a Mesh Ruffle Swim Skort by Beach House. The gold foiled brushstroke design and high neckline of the top create a gorgeous and flattering look, while the ruffled swim skort offers fun and full coverage. Pair the two together for the perfect poolside look.

Want the coverage of the two-piece combination described above with less work? A swim dress is the perfect option for you. This Crafted Botanical Swim Dress by Maxine, for example, features a v-neck line and a chic dress silhouette. The lovely floating flower design can help you get into the zone for your upcoming resort vacation, or help you look chic and stylish for summertime pool days with your friends and family.

Another fun and unique dress-style one piece is the sarong swimsuit! The Pacific Cheetah V-Neck Sarong Swimsuit by Roxanne adds a fun feminine flair to your summer and vacation look. And not only does it feature a modest v-neckline, adjustable straps and tie-side sarong skirt wrapped up in a fun animal print, but it’s also designed with chlorine-resistant fabric and UPF50+ sun protection! Enjoy the perfect amount of coverage, support, and sun protection in this lovely swimsuit.
