Your search for age- and size-inclusive swimwear is over: Discover swimwear staples and statement suits for women of every age and body type.
Whether you’re celebrating your anniversary at a beachside resort or soaking up the sun while lounging poolside, every woman deserves to wear a swimsuit that makes her feel like her fun, sexy, and confident self.
And that includes you—no matter what your birth certificate says!
Finding bathing suits for women over 60 can be just as fun and fulfilling as it was when you were 25—you just need a little push in the right direction. That’s why we’ve compiled the comfiest, most supportive, and always stylish swimwear for older women.
The Key to Finding Size-Inclusive Swimwear for Older Women
You don’t need me to tell you this: Bodies change as they age, and aging is a beautiful process! But some swimsuit designers don’t take these changes into account when creating pieces.
Looking for a surefire way to find flattering and form-fitting swimsuits for older women? Shop from size-inclusive brands.
Unlike plus sizing, size inclusivity prioritizes every woman’s unique shape—in every piece. Just take it from Eliza Huber at Refinery29 , who writes that when a brand values size inclusivity, they ensure that every garment, whether a dress, a pant, or a swimsuit, can be worn by any body.
Ultimately, these brands make it easy to find suits in your size that speak to your style. And I’m making it even easier by taking you through a few faves right now.
