Plus Size Swimwear for Women of Today

Thursday, February 9th, 2012

Many plus size women dread shopping for swimwear, and it’s easy to see why. Too often, it’s incredibly difficult to find swimsuits that actually flatter curvy figures. In fact, some plus size women have given up entirely on the idea of finding a suit that fits them.
At Hapari, we’re working to change the rules regarding plus size swimwear. We believe that every woman has the right to look great in a swimsuit that works for her body. All of our Hapari suits are designed with shape-enhancing secrets that work with your curves to help you feel confident while at the beach or by the pool. Yes, it is possible! Here’s a look at what makes Hapari’s plus size swimwear different:

Stylish Look

Just because a swimsuit is figure flattering does not mean it has to be boring, and our plus size swimsuit styles are anything but! Hapari’s plus size tankini tops come in a wide array of fun prints that specially designed made to camouflage any “problem” areas that you may have. In fact, there are so many wonderful options that you may have trouble deciding which you love the most. (Hint: you can get more than one!)

Lots of Support

Without a doubt, one major area of concern for plus size women is getting the proper amount of support where it’s most needed. With Hapari, you’ll never have to worry about this problem again, because all of our swimsuits are designed to offer the perfect amount of support to every woman.

Our tankinis with special style tabs allow you to choose how you wear the suit: criss-cross, tank, or halter-top, and our special S.O.S. tankinis offer maximum support through a built-in underwire. Keep in mind that both of these styles feature secret pockets that can be fitted with our “Illusions” silicone inserts.

Fit Secrets

We also offer a variety of figure-enhancing swimwear bottoms to help you look great no matter what. You can choose one of our awesome Tummy Tuk bottoms to tame your midsection or go for a thigh-concealing swim skirt to give you a little extra coverage.

All Hapari swimwear styles provide amazing fit. You’ll never have to tug or pull on these beautiful tankinis—just put one on and forget it for the rest of the day because it’s not going anywhere. Check out the sizing chart to make sure you get the suit that’s best for you in time for spring break.

Why Plus Size Swimsuits Are Better than Ever

Plus Size Swimwear Is Finally Considered Attractive Too

Society does a good job of teaching women they are unattractive. Or at least placing that notion in their mind. Many women feel ashamed of their size when they compare their bodies to the photoshopped images they see in glossy magazines, and when swimwear season rolls around, they would rather do anything besides squeeze in a lycra body suit that hugs and creates rolls.

We at Hapari recognize this constant struggle. But we also see a great movement occurring. While many in the fashion industry are still working to show skinny is the only way the more realistic perspective shines through occasionally. A great example of this is in the latest season of America’s Top Model. While Kasia Pilewicz became the latest model to be eliminated she was the shining light for plus sizes every where as she represented them well. Many following the show have been known to say she is easily the most beautiful of the girls. This is one of the few examples out there where the worlds perspective is slowly changing.

Today there are so many more stylish options for plus size swimwear than there were in the past. It’s no surprise that more and more women are embracing their curves and showing them off to their best advantage. When you buy swimwear that is flattering and supportive, you can feel great in your skin—no matter the size on the tag.

What to Look for…

When selecting your swimsuit, no matter your size the following tips are always good practice.

Make the fit of the swimsuit your first priority (rather than the print), and you will have better success at feeling confident on the beach. Beauty comes when you wear something that fits, and while most designers want you to look at the print before the fit, you’ll find that there are many cute prints available in whatever swimsuit supports you best.

For plus size suits, consider the chest support, and find something that fits your needs. Typically you will want wider straps and underwire bra support rather than a shelf bra, especially if you are planning on doing anything active. You want a thicker, quality material that can help shape your body, instead of some of the cheaper swimsuits that only offer a thin layer between your skin and the world.

Look for a suit that offers you great fit, coverage, comfort and style. For a plus sized woman, many new cuts on the market are designed to give you just that. The selection of plus size suits is growing, and you don’t have to settle for something that looks like a tent. Browse this year’s selection of plus size swimwear to find the suit that can help you feel like the model you are. Show off your curves and feel confident when doing so—it’s possible with this year’s selection.
