As we prepare for long beach days, backyard barbecues, bottomless brunch, and vacations, it's time to revamp your swimwear wardrobe. Regardless of what activity you're up to, a well-fitting suit is a must.
Unfortunately, shopping for a bathing suit comes with its own frustrations. Exclusive sizing doesn't encompass all bodies, and a large percentage of bikinis out there don’t take into account large busts and back sizes—often stopping at cup D or Large.
Fortunately, brands like H&M, Aerie, Summersalt, and more have been using inclusive sizing since their onset. They offer a wide range of cup sizes and provide mix and match separates for those of us who have different sizing on the top and bottom.
We rounded up our 28 favorite big-bust friendly swimsuits below. Cheers to a nip-slip and shoulder-digging free summer.
Not technically a bikini, this colorful cutout swimsuit from H&M is still one to consider. Available up to 4XL, this halter neckline is a great suit to have on rotation this summer.
The blue stripes nautical theme have us dreaming of life on a boat. The Sorrento Stripe Bikini Top has adjustable straps and soft cups.
With sizing up to a G-cup and adjustable straps that make it easier to tailor the suit to your preferred fit, you can't go wrong with Torrid's V-Flounce Swim Top.
To get the most life out of your swimsuit, try hand-washing, which will maximize the lifespan of the fabric.
Strapless silhouette might not be your first choice for swimwear but when they go up to size G cup, like the Marina Bikini Top, you might reconsider. Plus, the front string can double as a halter if you decide to switch things up.

Founders, Natasha Oakley and Devin Brugman weren't happy with the fit of swimwear on the market, so they created their own line. Instead of fitting these tops by industry standards (aka from small to large), the tops are fitted to cup sizes, so you can get the best possible fit. Tops go up to an E/F cup and each product on the site shows the piece on models of various sizes, so you can make an informed decision.
