Whether you’re doing laps around the pool or lounging by the shore with a book in hand, a one-piece swimsuit is usually the preferred style come summer.
Providing a little more coverage than your regular bikini, one-pieces are also favoured thanks to their ability to enhance and flatter different body shapes, adding a much-needed confidence boost when we need it.
It’s also perfect if you’re a swimmer, surfer or just looking to try new things like paddle boarding, as it stays in place so you don’t have to worry about it coming undone.
