Michaela Leitz-Aslaksen, a size-inclusive fashion expert and the founder of Confidence & Style, loves the V-neck design on this suit, which creates a smooth silhouette while offering perfect coverage. “The underwire provides full support, which is essential for comfort and confidence. Plus, the removable cups add versatility, and it comes in four different colors with a broad range of sizes,” she says.
“Underwires in swimwear give us all the little lift and support we need, especially if the material itself doesn’t have much structure,” says Los Angeles-based celebrity stylist Sarah Nearis. This suit is one of her faves right now.
Nearis is also a fan of this balconette-style one-piece with underwire, which offers a tummy panel for a smoothing effect, adjustable straps and side boning for extra support.

The lace-up back detail not only looks chic, but it creates the most flattering silhouette. “Designed to offer exceptional tummy control, this piece enhances your natural curves while ensuring you feel confident and empowered,” says Leitz-Aslaksen.

We tried Summersalt’s The Sidestroke for ourselves, and it’s easily one of our favorite one-piece swimsuits ever. While it might be a bit of a splurge, it is absolutely worth it for full coverage, stylish design and comfortable fit.

Designed with a built-in power mesh shelf bra, it offers extra bust support, ensuring you feel secure and confident.”
“If you have a short torso, your goal is to select a swimsuit that elongates your frame and you do that by creating long, clean lines,” says Nearis. “Opting for a plunging neckline will create the illusion of a longer torso.”
Between the extreme plunge in the front and high-rise cheeky cut in the back, this ombre suit is sure to stand out. It’s also reversible so you get two looks for one.
