After reading reviews and looking at people's photos of the suit, I decided to purchase it. I am so happy I did. I am so impressed with the quality. The suit is made out of a nice thick comfortable material. If you are thinking about purchasing this definitely do. You will be so happy with this suit!" —Emma

Promising review (for the swim capris): "I bought these to add to my collection of aqua Zumba swimwear...They are very comfortable. The fabric is a bit lighter weight and has more stretch than some of my other swim bottoms which makes them easy to move in. The color and pattern are beautiful. I love the capris for when the pool is cold and/or when summer comes and I have outdoor classes. The extra coverage gives some sun protection so I don't have to mess with sunscreen as much." —Bailey91821

Promising review: "As I pushed 'add to cart' on this swimsuit, I did so with an eye roll and a sigh--I've seen this design on a few different sites claiming it's one of the 'great bathing suits' for the summer, but there was no way this was going to work on me, right? Well, I can take back the eye roll and sigh — not only does it fit, but it makes me look dang good. The material on this suit is nice and thick, you can adjust the strings in the front to show more or less skin, and so far it has managed to adequately cover my booty despite me roaming around the house in it to try it out. I'm smitten — surprised too — but smitten." —Rachel green

"Amazingly comfortable. I generally only buy swim suits from Torrid but took a chance of this one because the design was beautiful...This top was supportive and comfortable. It can definitely accommodate a larger busy as the straps are adjustable. The bottoms were snug but not tight...Also a big plus nothing rolled and the material stayed together without bunching either...needless to say I was very impressed by how well these fit and stayed on." —Amazon Customer

Promising review: "First I want to say that I RARELY write reviews but I am doing so in the hopes that others with my body type (short, plus-sized, AND top-heavy) will find this useful. This particular swimsuit is very well made! The colors are as vibrant as the picture, the material is thick like a typical swimsuit, and the breast area's lining feels as though it is doubled up. I have a size 38 HH (UK)/38 N (US) bra. Now, with that being said, a natural HH/N cup is NOT typical, so I was pleasantly surprised with the amount of coverage that I got. The bottom is full coverage if you don't have much 'under cheek' as I like to call it. I will probably be ordering from them again! 😉" —VA_Gurl

Get it from Amazon for $32.99 (available in sizes S–3X and in 24 styles).

Promising reviews: "I’ve tried probably 10+ bathing suits from Amazon looking to find one that fits right, IS NOT a thong, has padding, and ties on the sides and this is it. I bought it in black also because I love how it fits so much. It still has a cheeky bottom but it provides far more coverage than any suit I’ve purchased within the last few years. I highly recommend this suit!" —Mackenzie Lindquist

"Love this suit. I was looking for a basic triangle suit that I could tie different ways like I saw on TikTok. This top is so cute and the scrunch on the butt of the bottoms is so [nice]. Definitely a staple this summer." —Sophie M.

Get it from Amazon for $24.99+ (available in sizes S–XL and in 26 colors/patterns).

Get it from Asos for $43 (available in sizes 12–26).

Promising reviews: "I have never loved a bathing suit as much as this one! It's so stunning! I love the shorts that come with it, and where it hits right below the bust. It's a beautiful product...GET THIS! The quality is incredible as well. So comfortable. ❤️" —Libby

"I really love this swimsuit! It's very cute and sort of retro-looking...I got sooo many compliments! Some even thought it was an actual dress! The shorts fit great, giving my booty lots of room without riding up or down. The bust was just slightly too big in the cups but it was still very comfortable and I had zero mishaps. The straps are adjustable so I just tightened it all up and it was perfect! I felt super pretty in this — that's something I’ve NEVER said wearing a swimsuit." —Megan

Get it from Amazon for $33.99+ (available in sizes 12–30 and in 30 colors/patterns).

Promising reviews: "I seriously love this swimsuit...[and] the reversible element. When I wear it on the floral side, a little bit of the stripes show on the edges. When I wear it on the striped side, the straps on the top are floral and bits of the floral show on the bottom. It's really cute. And the quality is excellent." —A. Thompson

"Cupshe has and will remain at the top of my list for best quality at an affordable price for swim suits. I needed last minute options for my trip to Hawaii and ended up picking up this set for one of my picks. I wanted to pack light so being that this was reversible, it covered my needs. Love the design on both sides too!" —AKN

Get it from Amazon for $29.99 (available in sizes XS–XXL).

Promising reviews: "I absolutely love this set. The colors are beautiful... and I feel extremely good in this two-piece. I love the thong bottoms aren't your traditional thong, its about three inches thicker so I don't have to worry about it riding up. The cover up is thick enough to have a little spandex support [but] not too thick to be a sweat box on these extremely hot days. I highly recommend." —Anyika

"I’m not completely comfortable with showing my body but I still wanted to feel like I wasn't completely covered up during our vacation. This did the trick… I was covered mostly but still felt sexy. Love it." —Crissy

Get it from Amazon for $26.99 (available in sizes L–4X and in 40 colors ).

Promising reviews: "This suit right here is an OMG moment. It is LOVE at first try on. I did not want to take it off, and wanted to just parade all around the house in it!! Great quality and material used...do not hesitate, order this swim suit and fall in love. ITS THAT CUTE." —E & J Push'n wind

Get it from Amazon for $36.99 (available in sizes S–XXL and in 42 colors/patterns).

And here's a similar plus size version (3X–5X) for $35.95.

Promising review: "I love this suit!...I honestly think its very versatile and would look great on any body type. I was worried about the bottoms being potentially see through, but they are very opaque. The top has what I would say is medium support and comes with built-in padding. I’m typically very self conscious in a swimsuit, but this swimsuit is very [cute] and makes me feel confident while still being in a cute pretty color/pattern since I usually go for black. I’m seriously considering ordering a second one in a different color!" —Justinbowling

Get it from Amazon for $33.99 (available in sizes XS–XL and in 16 colors/patterns).

"This bathing suit is a dream!!! It's my favorite color in the world and the mesh design is sexy...It's very well made for the price. The coverage of the bottoms is moderate, not full, and the top shows lots of cleavage, if you have it. I’m ordering other colors ASAP!! If you’re on the fence about, just buy it... you won't regret it!!" —Jenn

Get it from Amazon for $28.99 (available in sizes L–3X and in 10 colors).

Promising reviews: "I was nervous at first to buy this suit because I’m very top heavy. Usually I have suits that fit perfect on the bottom but are too small on the top. [However] this suit fit PERFECTLY! I was very impressed with the material and quality of the suit. The skirt was super cute and gave a lovely island feel, which is what I was looking for on my vacation. If you’re thinking about purchasing this suit DO IT!" —Christina Turley

Promising review: "I am in love with my new bikini!... The print is even prettier in person, bold and bright. I've have gotten many compliments on it. I especially love that the clips are made of what seems to be some type of strong plastic. No more scalding metal while in the sun. The stitching is well done and reminds me of some high-end suits I’ve owned in the past. The material is soft and stretchy it complimented my body just right. The adjustable straps are very helpful. The material blend is light and airy. I am actually amazed by how fast it dries. My go to favorite... Deserves 10 Stars!!" —Sunrise Circle
