Available in sizes XS to 24W
6. Frankie's Bikinis Mel Plissé High Neck One Piece Swimsuit

This suit is available in black, white and a super-cute tropical graphic pattern.

7. Seea The Hermosa One Piece
Best Long-Sleeve One-Piece Swimsuit
Why We Love It:
SPF protection fabric

The high neck, long sleeves and classic fit legs guarantee maximum sun coverage without skimping on glamour.
Available in sizes X-small to X-large
8. ASOS DESIGN Maternity Gathered plunge swimsuit in palm print
Best Maternity Design

Maybe you're not like Rihanna who exults in maximum bun-in-the-oven skin baring. Still, you don't want to disappear under a tent. This one-piece keeps you covered, but stylishly, with a gathered bosom and side seams that give as your pregnancy progresses. And a tie closes the open back panel, possibly the only part of you that's not swollen.

Best High Neck One-Piece Swimsuit
Why We Love It:
Full chest coverage
Medium seat coverage
It's business in the front, party in the back with this simple yet highly engineered Lulu one-piece. The whisper-weight nylon-lycra fabric is lined, so you're well-covered, but it all dries in a snap. And the removable pockets at the chest for optional pads? Much appreciated.

UPF 50, chlorine-resistant fabric
This suit isn't called "tugless" for nothing—the low-cut legs and simple front and back scoop neck has all been sewn exactly right in order for a woman to put this suit on, and not give it a second thought through a day's worth of kid-chasing, lap-swimming or just all those lateral stretches to reach the frozen marg on that chaise-side table. There's a range of customizable options, including tummy control, cup configurations and four colorways.
Available in sizes 4 to 18, including petite, long and plus sizing

Best Athletic One-Piece Swimsuit
Why We Love It:
Back cross-strap design
Shelf bra
SPF 50 fabric
Made for surfing, swimming and stand-up paddleboarding, this suit will stay in place no matter how you stretch and dive due to its sturdy tank top that fastens in a single mid-back hook. The sun-blocking fabric provides protection from sunburn, so that you can concentrate on perfecting your sporty form.

12. Boden Portofino Cup-Size Swimsuit
Best Boob Support One-Piece Swimsuit

15. Old Navy V-Neck Wrap-Front One-Piece Swimsuit Dress
Best One-Piece Swim Dress
Why We Love It:
Looks like a mini-dress

16. Andie The Amalfi
Best One-Piece Swimsuit for Curves
Why We Love It:
Compression lining
Removable cups
It's rare that you find a swimsuit that's comfy and cute enough to chill in, but this classic maillot delivers. Adjustable straps let you tighten to your happy boob coverage, and the lined fabric keeps your bod opaque and, since it's lightly compressive, reduces jiggle. And it comes in a range of colors and there's the option of choosing cheeky, medium or full bottom coverage.
Available in sizes XS to XXXL
17. Johnny Was Halter One-Piece Swimsuit
Best One-Piece Halter Swimsuit

18. VICTORIA'S SECRET Essential Banded Plunge One-Piece
Best Butt-Lifting One-Piece Swimsuit
Why We Love It:
Moderate high-cut leg
Lightweight fabric

Available in sizes XS to XXL
19. Husmeu Women's Tummy Control One Piece
Best Tummy Control One-Piece Swimsuit
Why We Love It:
Crisscross bosom
Mesh abdomen-shaping panels
Available in 14 solid and print fabrics, this swimsuit is a bestseller on Amazon. Pulling it up and on is like having a mini-tummy tuck, since the horizontal elastic bands hold you in. And the highly structured, padded bra balances hips and tummy—a win-win.
Available in sizes small to 3X-Large
20. Hilor Women's One Shoulder Swimwear
Best One-Shoulder One-Piece Swimsuit
Why We Love It:
Removable bra padding
Comes in 28 colorways
A double row of ruffles spills down from your shoulder in this sleek yet festive swimsuit. Add in a bit of tummy control fabric underneath the gently gathered front panel, and a bum with medium coverage, and you've got a one-piece that's cute enough to wear as a top apres-swim.
Available in sizes 6 to 16
21. Left on Friday Peak Suit
Best Cutout One-Piece Swimsuit
Why We Love It:

Available in sizes XS to XXL, tall sizes
22. Miravella by Miraclesuit Solid Gandolf
Best Slimming One-Piece Swimsuit
Why We Love It:
Flattering sweetheart neckline
Control fabric holds in tummy
Buy this suit if you want to be the best-looking woman in your water aerobics class: This entire garment is engineered to give a more sculpted, slim appearance. The bustline detail draws the eye upward (while not being too revealing). The medium-cut leg lengthens without being to constricting. And the wide straps don't dig into your shoulders.
Available in sizes 8 to 16
23. Missoni Zigzag One-Piece Swimsuit
Best Splurge-Worthy One-Piece Swimsuit
Why We Love It:
Designer zigzag pattern
Fully lined
This rayon maillot in Italian luxury designer Missoni's signature print is more like a collectible fashion item than a regular old swimsuit. In addition to rocking it by the pool, we'd wear it as a top with shorts, and even as a fancy dinner outfit under a jacket with slinky trousers. Sure, it's an investment, but way more creative (and cheaper) than a designer purse.
Available in sizes 0 to 10
24. LISA MARIE FERNANDEZ Dree Louise stretch-crepe wrap swimsuit
Best Adjustable Waist
Why We Love It:
Stretch crepe fabric is dressy
Waist can be cinched as tight as you like
