Walmart has really upped its game in the plus-size department over the last year or so. Not only do they have a wide variety of sizes in-store, but they are affordable and on-trend. A few weeks ago (before we were stuck at home!) I stopped in the store to try on a few of the Swim pieces for this year. I was really impressed and even found a few keepers!
I know that trying on swim can sometimes be daunting, so I am helpful that this can serve as a guide for you to see the suits on a body that is similar to yours.
I am around 5’6 and I wear a size 24 or 3X in most things. I often size down in the Terra and Sky line, but found most of these suits to be true to size.
Plus Size Swim Try On
I absolutely loved this one! I am wearing a 2x in the bottoms and 3x in the top. The cups offer a lot of support and I didn’t feel like I needed to tug on the straps at all.
I love the neckline and the lace accents on this suit. I am wearing the 3x, and it was a little snug in the length for me, I had to be very careful pulling up on the lace. If you are taller, you may want to size up.
This was one of my favorites! I really like the faux halter (the straps are a tradition “h” in the back) and the mesh peek-a-boo. I grabbed the 3x and it fit like a glove.
If you are looking for a classic, black suit, this is it! I feel like this suit will look good on just about anyone, and how fun is that neckline? I have a 3x on and I would say it fits TTS
This top was my favorite, of this entire try on. It’s the first bikini I have tried on in a while and I was really nervous to try it. But once I got it on, I felt stunning! It fits so well and lifts in all the right places. I am wearing a 3x on top and 2 x on the bottom.
This one was my absolute favorite! The cut, the fit, the color. Everything about this suit is just perfect! I especially love the strap detail, it gives a really classic design something special. Also wearing a 3x in this cutie.
How fun is this top? It was a little snug in the bust for me, so I would suggest sizing up. I really loved the print mixing and the colors in this print. The bottoms were really cute too, the faux wrap is always in style. This suit is not specifically “Plus Size” which may also contribute to some of the sizing issues I had.
This was another favorite! I am a sucker for the faux wrap and I think it looks good on so many body types. This suite was super comfy, I didn’t feel tugging or pulling at all and I loved how I felt in it. Unlike other plus-size one pieces I have tried on, this had plenty of torso length. I am wearing this in a 3x
Last but definitely not least, is this adorable cover-up. I loved the tie detail and the length, perfect to and from the pool or around the beach. This was in the plus- size section (Terra and Sky) sized as “One Size Fits Most” and it fit me better than I expected!
Which suit is your favorite?
