Like most women, I dread trying on swimwear. It's an unpleasant time of the year I often try to avoid until the inevitable beach day with friends is planned, after which I reluctantly scour the internet for something flattering yet stylish. Nothing ruins a nice day in the sun with friends like feeling massively uncomfortable, and the options available in swimwear can oftentimes be dismal, to say the least.
One of the first things I always notice is the incredible lack of size inclusivity in swimwear. Of course, it exists everywhere, but in swimwear, it's especially apparent. This year, people are embracing and are thankful for the great outdoors and simple beauty of nature than ever before.
Whether you're planning on hitting up your best friend's pool the second quarantine is lifted in your area, or you just want to look like an absolute Queen hanging out on your back porch alone, these suits have got you covered (metaphorically, of course).
