Shout out to new mamas-to-be out there! I'm not there yet but I do know there's a lot to learn about everything. Even shopping for maternity clothes is totally different than what you're used to. (FYI, these maternity leggings are a godsend.) But if you thought putting together a pregnancy outfit was difficult, just wait until you get to the swimsuit section. As if finding a swimsuit that fits just right wasn't hard enough, your body is ever-changing and growing and your swimwear also needs to accommodate all of that. Yeah, challenging doesn't even begin to cover it. But we love overcoming obstacles, so we consulted the experts and flipped through online swimsuit racks to make the shopping process easier.
For starters, "expandability, durability, and longevity," are key factors to a great maternity swimsuit, says Chelsey Oliver, CCO of maternity brand Seraphine. "Look for high-quality, super-stretchy swimwear fabric that will last a long time and wash well, and straps that can be adjusted for better support," Oliver says. Nicole Trunfio, founder of Bumpsuit, also recommends adjustable features that “can be modified to your changing body; look for ties that can be tightened and loosened and fabric that feels supportive as your body and bump grows.”
Our top picks for the best maternity swimsuits of 2024:
