No matter what stage a woman is in her life, swimwear can be a rather uncomfortable topic. Since our bodies are constantly changing, there may be some days when you just don’t feel as confident as you usually are. With fashion trends seemingly becoming more revealing by the season, it may feel as if chic yet modest swimwear styles are nearly impossible to come by (especially for those days when you aren’t feeling a bikini). But here at SheKnows, our vigorous shopping team is equipped to find practically any product on the internet. So when we came across Spanx’s latest swimwear drop, we just had to share.
In case you didn’t know, Spanx goes way beyond the traditional shapewear that put them on the map. You could outfit your entire wardrobe in Spanx if you really wanted to, from slacks for the office to comfortable activewear — and now you can take it a step further with their latest swimsuit collection. The newest drop consists of classic styles like a plunging one-piece and a high-waisted bikini bottom, with fun and flirty options that would look great on everyone.
All of the pieces are designed with a pique textured fabric that’s said to have an all-over smoothing effect. Some styles, like the one-pieces and swim bottoms, have hidden shaping technology with a power-mesh fabric that offers a complete 360-degree shaping that is super flattering, so you can feel as confident as you would in your traditional shapewear at your next beach or pool outing.
Below, we’ve gathered a handful of our favorite styles to add to your cart before the season starts.
Nothing is more classic than a plunging one-piece — it’s the perfect swimsuit for everybody. Thanks to the wide straps, the plunging neckline offers a saucy feminine touch that’s still very supportive. Plus, there’s a good amount of coverage for the bottom, as it’s slightly cheeky without being too revealing.
Often, you have to compromise support over style, but not with this new halter tankini. While it’s simple in design, its style is practical and flirty. It has a built-in shelf bra for ample support and 360-degree shaping. The peplum top is chic and flirty, perfect for your next beach day.
If you’re comfortable showing a little more of your bum, definitely reach for these high-waisted cheeky bottoms. Trust us, they’re not super cheeky but show just a little more skin than typical full-coverage options. And if you need more support, a super high-rise option is also available.
Another option to consider this summer is a flirty swim dress like this one. It features the same shaping technology, with swimsuit bottoms underneath and a hidden tie that keeps the dress skirt down when in the water, so you don’t have to worry about feeling exposed.
