Get the lowdown on the best women’s swimsuits to buy now
Don't let swimwear shyness get between you and the beach. Whether you're looking for a confidence-boosting swimsuit for your holiday or a classic one-piece for the local leisure centre, our swimwear range has every need covered. From sleek black swimsuits to tan-enhancing white swimsuits, you'll find ultra-flattering swimwear to help you take the plunge this summer.
Our tummy-control swimming costumes are considered to be some of our best swimsuits for a reason: the supportive inner layer helps smooth and sculpt your middle without compromising on comfort or style. In fact, you'll find clever tummy-control tech in many of our swimsuit designs. Whether you need a regular fit or a longer-length swimsuit, a high-leg cut helps balance proportions and create the illusion of longer legs. Fuller bust? Check out our handy guide before browsing the range.

The best swimsuits for maternity, postpartum and post-surgery
If you're planning a 'babymoon' or are enjoying the health benefits of swimming during pregnancy, you'll want a bump-friendly swimsuit that embraces your growing body. You'll find maternity swimsuits from expert brands including Speedo (ideal for serious swimmers), Jojo Maman Bébé and Pour Moi, in addition to a five-star-rated black maternity swimsuit by M&S Collection.
We also have stylish swimsuits to flatter postpartum figures, with tummy support and strategic ruching so you feel more confident in the tender months after having a baby. Love our innovative period knickers? Don't miss our period swimsuit which combines the same moisture-locking technology with a sleek, square-neck design.
Our emerald-green post-surgery swimsuit features dual pockets for a prosthesis and added stretch for ultimate comfort. Sun Smart UPF50+ technology helps to protect skin against harmful UV rays, while the supportive fabric ensures you'll feel confident resuming swimming after a mastectomy. Expert tip: check out customer reviews when researching the best post-surgery swimsuit for your needs.

Under wraps: How to wear swimwear beyond the beach
The sarong has made a major comeback in recent years. With its waist-defining, figure-flaunting styling potential, it's no wonder we won't fly without one. Loosely wrap a sarong around your waist to walk along the surf, or knot into a halter-neck dress to take your swimwear from beach to bar. Accessories don't just personalise your beachwear look; they add coverage and create flattering silhouettes to help boost your confidence.
A beach cover-up helps protect your skin from harmful rays. While airy kaftans have enduring appeal, popular styles to try now include boxy linen shirts, cool co-ords and crochet-inspired dresses that allow your swimwear to peek through.
Wondering how to wear swimsuits on and off the beach? Look to fashionable seaside residents for a masterclass in maximising their styling potential. Combine a pristine white swimsuit with linen trousers, metallic sandals and artsy jewellery for an Ibiza-worthy look, or take your casual swimsuit outfit for a post-swim apéritif as they do in trendy Marseille.
