Stylish Plus Size Tankinis for Summer Vacation

Why We Love This Look

Finding swimwear that makes you feel confident and comfortable shouldn't be a seasonal struggle. As someone who's styled countless body types for beach vacations and pool days, I know the frustration of swimsuits that promise support but deliver disappointment. The right plus size tankini should celebrate your curves while providing the coverage and security you need to enjoy every moment in the sun.

Our collection solves this exact problem with thoughtfully designed pieces that combine fashion-forward prints with practical construction. Unlike traditional one-piece swimsuits that can feel restrictive, tankinis offer the perfect balance of coverage and freedom. The adjustable straps, supportive bust designs, and tummy-control bottoms in our selection address the specific needs plus size women have when shopping for swimwear.

From a fashion expertise perspective, tankinis have evolved from basic separates to sophisticated swimwear options. The modern plus size tankini features strategic ruching, flattering necklines, and prints that draw the eye upward. The palm leaves print and monochrome patterns in our collection aren't just trendy—they're designed to create optical illusions that enhance your natural shape. The strappy back details add a touch of elegance that transitions beautifully from beach to resort dining.

What sets these pieces apart is their versatility. A well-chosen tankini can serve as a stylish bodysuit when paired with shorts or a skirt, maximizing your vacation wardrobe. The breathable fabrics and quick-dry materials ensure comfort whether you're lounging by the pool or exploring coastal towns. These aren't just swimsuits—they're confidence-builders designed for real women enjoying real vacations.

How to Style Your Plus Size Tankini

Elevate your swimwear with strategic styling that maximizes both comfort and style. Start by pairing your tankini with high-waisted bottoms for enhanced tummy control and a streamlined silhouette. For beach-to-bar versatility, layer with a lightweight kimono or caftan in complementary colors—our sky blue palm print tankini looks stunning with white linen cover-ups. Accessorize with wide-brimmed hats like our Blue Denim Baker Boy Hat for sun protection and chic flair. Complete the look with minimalist jewelry like the Crystal Flip Flop Earrings that won't tangle in water. For color coordination, match your tankini's dominant hue with your cover-up and sandals for a polished, put-together vacation look that transitions seamlessly from day to evening.

Perfect Occasions for Plus Size Tankinis

These tankinis are designed for every warm-weather adventure. They're ideal for summer beach vacations where you need reliable swimwear for swimming, sunbathing, and resort activities. The coverage makes them perfect for family pool days when you want to move freely while playing with kids. Resort vacations benefit from their elegant details—the strappy back designs work beautifully under sheer cover-ups for dinner by the water. They're also excellent for cruise wear, providing comfort during water excursions while maintaining style for shipboard activities. Beyond traditional swim settings, wear the tankini top as a crop top with high-waisted shorts for casual coastal exploring. The quick-dry fabric ensures you stay comfortable whether you're at a water park, on a boat tour, or simply enjoying a backyard pool party.

Fit, Fabric & Care Guide

Our plus size tankinis feature stretchy, quick-dry nylon-spandex blends that provide comfortable compression without restriction. The fabric offers UPF 50+ sun protection while maintaining breathability. For sizing, we recommend consulting our detailed size chart and measuring your bust, waist, and hips—these tankinis are designed with generous cup coverage and adjustable straps for customized fit. The construction includes reinforced seams and tummy-control panels that smooth without squeezing. For care, always rinse in cool water after each use to remove chlorine, salt, and sunscreen. Hand wash with mild detergent and lay flat to dry—never wring or machine dry, as heat can damage the elasticity. Store flat or rolled to maintain shape between uses. With proper care, these tankinis will maintain their color vibrancy and supportive fit season after season.

Frequently Asked Questions

Do these tankinis offer real tummy control? +
Yes, our tankinis feature strategic ruching and compression panels specifically designed for plus size figures. The bottoms have higher waistlines with power mesh lining that smooths without rolling down, while the tops provide bust support without gaping. Many customers report feeling more confident and comfortable than with traditional swimwear.
What size should I order if I'm between sizes? +
We recommend sizing up if you're between sizes, as the fabric has moderate compression. Check our detailed size chart with exact measurements for bust, waist, and hips. The adjustable straps and tie-side bottoms allow for customization within 1-2 sizes. If you have a larger bust, consider your cup size when selecting—our designs accommodate D-DD cups comfortably.
Are these tankinis suitable for actual swimming? +
Absolutely. These are functional swimsuits designed for water activities. The quick-dry fabric won't become heavy when wet, and the secure closures ensure everything stays in place during swimming. The chlorine-resistant material makes them pool-safe, while the sun-protective fabric is ideal for beach use.
How do I style the tankini for non-swim occasions? +
The tankini tops work beautifully as crop tops when paired with high-waisted shorts, skirts, or palazzo pants. For resort wear, layer with our lightweight maxi dresses or a sarong. The stylish prints and details like strappy backs make them versatile enough for casual dining or exploring when combined with the right cover-ups.
What's your return policy for swimwear? +
We accept returns within 30 days with tags attached and hygienic liner intact. Since swimwear is intimate apparel, we cannot accept returns if the hygienic liner has been removed or if the item shows signs of wear. We recommend trying on over underwear and checking fit carefully before removing tags.
How do I care for the prints to prevent fading? +
Always rinse immediately after use in cool water to remove chlorine, salt, and sunscreen—these are the main causes of fading. Hand wash with mild detergent made for delicates, avoid bleach, and never wring or twist. Lay flat to dry away from direct sunlight, and store flat to maintain the vibrant prints season after season.
