Best One-Piece Swimsuits You Can Buy In 2022

Get ready for a gorgeous round-up of 2022's best one-piece swimsuits! Will there be some stretch marks? Yes, honey. What about some cellulite here and there? Of course. As we said, this list is gorgeous!

Swimsuit shopping sometimes causes women stress. And with that, the marketing tactic of having a "beach body" and getting your figure ready for beach season has (finally) come under scrutiny. Along those lines, The Guardian reported on a controversial weight-loss advertisement banned in the United Kingdom. The ad, which was also on a billboard in New York's Times Square, featured a very small-waisted, narrow-thighed model, and in bold font, it asked, "Are You Beach Body Ready?"

It's no surprise that the reactions of NYC residents were brutally honest, and some expressed worry and sadness. One woman said, "This ad reminds me I am not beach body ready, and I am sad." And Eduardo Brandt, a New York City based lawyer, told The Guardian, "I feel bad for my future daughter."

But not only have swimsuit styles changed over the years, but since The Guardian story ran in 2015, more people agree with Darlene Watler, who was also interviewed. "My body is always beach ready. All I need is a swimsuit," she said. As a result, the industry is slowly shifting, partly spurred by celebrities like Camila Cabello, who've clapped back at beach body shamers on social media (via Bustle). In the interview, she mentioned her then-boyfriend Shawn Mendes' body-image anxiety — a reminder that body shaming can impact anyone.

Well, we're 100% beach-team Cabello. In her now-famous TikTok rant — which has 5 million likes — she says, "Being at war with your body is so last season," and we could not agree more. So, know this: every single one-piece swimsuit is perfect for you. Now get out there, take a stand in the sand, and rock whatever swimsuit you damn please.

Continuing the theme of 'every body is a beach body,' this list includes swimsuits across various categories — from classic black swimsuits to cheeky choices and everything in between. Of course, we tracked the 2022 swimsuit trends like cut-outs and ruching, which are being reported by fashion experts like those at InStyle and Fashionista, but we left plenty of room for self-expression, too.

The featured swimsuits represent over 20 popular styles. This depth is especially important because, as NPD reports, people are eager to splurge on swimwear. But ultimately, it's your expertise and opinion that matter the most, so it's essential to include a wide variety of designs so that you have plenty of unique options. And, if you're like us, you might be inclined to order a few, so you can try them on to make the best decision. With this in mind, each of the selected swimsuits includes return policy highlights and a link to the brand's complete return policy. It's important to remember to leave all the tags and hygienic liner in place for your at-home try-on session since it's a requirement for most swimsuit returns.

In the meantime, though, it's time to have some fun in the sun!

There's simply not enough zebra print in the world, but together, we can make a difference. We all know animal prints are the fashion jungle's darling; look no further than Vogue. The versatility of a traditional black and white z-print is unmatched, so it's a great swimsuit option.

Although new to the review scene, customers so far have scored this one-piece swimsuit with a perfect 5-star rating. One fan raves, "I love, love, love this swimsuit. It is so comfy and flattering on any body type. Not only that, this swimsuit is well-made and made to last!" So, if you're asking yourself, "Is it time to buy a new swimsuit?" The answer is, 'yes!'

This swoony pastel camo-print swimsuit is as sweet as everyone's favorite Valentine's Day conversation hearts. Between the lavender-mint hues and off-the-shoulder ruffle sleeve, this sweet treat says, 'SMR FLIRT,' and is channeling some sugar-pop severe vibes à la Katy Perry's "California Gurls" video.

Infamous Swim wants "women...to feel empowered in their swimwear no matter what stage of life," and their design details go a long way to deliver on that. For instance, the angle of the leg openings gives this one-piece a leg-lengthening effect. Overall, the swimwear brand is highly-rated by customers, who've given it a whopping 4.8 out of 5-stars.

There's a lot to love about this suit. First, the lace, seams, and structured corset-style design — a retro-glam trend, according to Nylon. It's got the sexiness of a bikini with the support and coverage of a one-piece. The suit comes with two straps — thin and thick — which can be worn in a traditional or halter style (or not at all).

There are 5,600 Amazon customer reviews, with an overall rating of 3.9 stars. Generally, best-of lists target a score of 4-stars or higher, but the customer images posted within the reviews are so stunning that this suit earns a spot. One customer mentioned this one-piece is an exact replica of a $170 designer suit. Another woman said, "The quality is great, tight seams, substantial straps, well sewn-on button detail, etc. It manages to have a corset look, sans the restricting wires. It is soft yet structured...it is a great design."

Of the 3-star reviews, people mentioned the cheeky cut of the suit's backside, and there were reminders to put sunscreen on your tummy to avoid a lattice-pattern tan line.

There's nothing quite as refreshing as a sprightly burst of citrus, and this option is no exception. The bright yellow lemon pattern is a refreshing splash of seaside citrus, and its classic plunge cut never goes out of style. And, speaking of style, Kitty and Vibe actively recruit real-life models for photo and video shoots. Their requirements are pretty straightforward since previous know-how is not required, "...just kindness and your beautiful self."

The suit, a newer release from the brand, got a great shout-out from a customer who mentioned that it "has a little bit of compression so [she] feels very secure! The booty doesn't ride up." And citrus colors continue to trend, including the new Dolce & Gabbana lemon-themed collection featured in Vogue. So, if you want to get in on the trend for under $100, let this suit be your lemon aid in achieving your fresh summer look.

This swimsuit is a sexy shapeshifter, offering six different strap configurations. Plus, the extra-deep plunge and cheeky styling give it additional oomph.

Well, hell ya, to that! But Londre Bodywear also uplifts one of our most important sisters — Mother Nature. The sustainably-minded brand was featured by InStyle for its dedication to environmental causes. In fact, each suit is made with at least six up-cycled plastic bottles.

The folks at Kinx want "all of us [to] live unapologetically free. Free from judgment. Free from self-doubt." So, with this in mind, the brand designs "comfortable wireless bras [and] super-absorbent underwear...to make you feel more comfortable in your own skin."

Luna Cara Swim has somehow managed to gift us this sultry tropical suit with plenty of coverage. Not only is the color a blissful blue, but the pretty little details remind us we can never have too many swimsuits. And, we're not alone. The brand gets online love from the likes of BuzzFeed and Cosmopolitan!

This tropical one-piece is a newer release, and the reviews have all been fun in the sun, without a hint of salty sass. One customer highlighted the balance of sizzle and safe-for-work sultry in her review. "[I'm] IN LOVE with this one piece!!! I got so many compliments on my trip. Super sexy without being super revealing." 

But impressive shout-outs aside, this female-owned brand manufactures in Los Angeles, which the founders feel is a meaningful way "to help support the economy in the city [they] love and reduce [their] carbon footprint." The eco-minded brand is the next step for its founding duo, who've been designing in the swimsuit industry for over 25 years (via USAWire).

Sweaty Betty is more than a vibrant athletic brand for women; it also represents our squad goals. If this Betty were an actual person, we'd sure like to be her bestie because she's obviously living her best life. First of all, she doesn't say, "Pardon me, I'm glistening." Nah, not Betty. She's the keep-it-real friend who peels off her salty shirt, wrings out the sweat, and keeps going. She's 100% that beach-goer.

And this swimsuit is for the beautifully active hot mamas who're inclined to shred waves now and again or dive for the save in beach volleyball. So, if you're tackling a cold water SUP-sesh or a little kite-surfing, this suit has got your back. And speaking of backs, look at that teardrop peek-a-boo design!

It's much-loved by customers; one remarked, "The fit is spot on and feels really sculpting and supportive. Great stretch in the fabric, perfect swimsuit for sea swimming, particularly in colder weather." But the love goes both ways. Sweaty Betty is also known for occasionally sending loyal customers personalized notes, according to AdWeek, which further supports the theory that this Betty gal would be an awesome best friend.

It'll take more than just some lotion if you're looking to stun in the sun while maximizing SPF coverage. This stylish long-sleeve swimsuit is made with an Italian fabric, designed to fend off 98% of damaging UV rays.

The Lycra not only protects against sun damage, but it has a gorgeous sheen. Additional features, such as the square neckline, removable belt, and no-show back zipper, add to the appeal.

As it turns out, you're not alone; over 31,600 people have reviewed this suit, giving it 4.6 out of 5 stars. And, since it's well-priced, you might want to scoop up a few, especially considering it's offered in over 40 colors and patterns.

Lavender is known to be calming, but we're struggling to contain our enthusiasm for this adorable one-piece swimsuit. Right away, the cagey lattice construction catches the eye, but there are a few hidden details as well. The straps are adjustable and convertible, and the padding is removable, elements that allow for a more personalized fit.

We're not surprised, though, since the folks at Rainbow have earned 4.6 out of 5 stars on the review platform Trustpilot and boast nearly 300,000 followers on Instagram. In fact, the brand was even featured in Seventeen's guide, Where to Shop the Best Outfits From "Euphoria" Season 2.

Not to mention, this suit is less than $25. So, you can see why we're lingering in this lilac love-fest!

"Best bathing suit ever!" That's just one example of the fan-fare over this classic black one-piece swimsuit. And, knowing it's from Athleta, we're inclined to ask, "Which kick-butt activities can we tackle in this versatile wonder?"

So, what's the answer? Well, pretty much anything, considering that it's strategically made to be exceptionally fast-drying. It's also worth mentioning that if you're deciding between a sporty suit and one with shapewear contouring, this one-piece offers both, according to reviews. "No need to buy a tummy tucker suit as the shirring on this suit does the job in a light and stylish way," raved one customer, while another got straight to the point with, "Slimming!"

But, in the end, remember that a slimming feature is all good and fine but largely unnecessary because you're gorgeous. And we're standing firm on that, especially since Alicia Keys agrees, which is one of the reasons she partnered with Athleta (via People). In an interview, she shared her excitement for partnering with a brand that is "really about uplifting women, empowering women, reminding us that we're all capable, we're all special, and we're all creative."

The Square Neck One-Piece is available at Athleta for $98.

The Christian Lacroix CEO went on to say that "...this season will offer a delight for the senses, evoking the essence of a spring garden alive with butterflies and blooms."

Leave it to the luxe fashion house to fully understand the assignment. This one-piece is low on the plunge and high on the dream-garden vibes. Looking to serve the earth-centric print fully, it's made from eco-friendly recycled water bottle fabric, which was celebrated by WWD.

As it turns out, this jaguar print suit heard the fuss we made over the earlier zebra-style one-piece and was like, "Hold my piña colada." So, in a stunning effort to remain best-in-print, the jaguar swoops in with some drama.

For this reason, the brand's suits are great for anyone with cup sizes A through G. And the Instagram feed, which has over 640,000 followers, is all the proof you need since it's a celebration of size inclusivity. Founder Natasha Oakley explained to Elle Australia that, "After years of traveling to luxurious and exotic beach locations and trying on hundreds of bikinis, I quickly realized the swimwear industry lacked comfortable and flattering swim that suited curvy and large-busted women."

So, she fixed that.

The St. Barth's One-Piece is available at Monday Swimwear for $174.

Either way, this suit is our new summer uniform, especially knowing it's fully lined and ready for anything.

Vineyard Vines is a whole mood — laid-back seaside shenanigans with the salty air through your hair. The brand's motto is, "Every day should feel this good," and in a YouTube interview with Forbes – viewed by nearly 37,000 people — the founders describe the feeling of the brand's "way of life and movement." The brothers were looking for a way to let Martha's Vineyard tourists take home that sun-shiny, boats-or-bust vacation vibe of the popular summer getaway. Well, with a little seersucker, and some wind in their sails, it's been smooth sailing.

And seersucker-style fabric, according to Elle, is perfect for summer soirees and such because it's lightweight, quick-drying, and its puckered texture helps disguise wrinkles. All in all, the fabric has become synonymous with summer, so it's the perfect way to embrace the latest seersucker trend.

A round of applause, please, for the swimsuit that offers a choice between full coverage and Brazilian cut. This animal print one-piece lets you choose between an extra measure of modesty or a slightly more wild life. Whichever way you frame the bum, just get it out in that summer sun.

Anytime an animal print is offered in a cool color, just go ahead and pop it into your online cart. Harper's Bazaar suggests that bold animal prints are timeless, and this one is extra special. The color is reminiscent of the blue-gray hues of a storm forming over the ocean. Sure, it's beautiful, but don't underestimate its power, which is pretty much how we describe most women.

If you love these tiny checks, you're a gingham girl — and you're not alone. The small checkered print has been a fashion staple since 1939, reports Vox, when Judy Garland paired her gingham print dress with a pint-size pup and a picnic basket. But the print has made a beeline from picnic blankets to street style and beyond, with no shortage of celebrity fabric fans, according to Vogue.

The print's association with picnics clinches its spot on the list of all-time favorite summer fabrics, and this one-piece gingham swimsuit is proof. It holds the No. 9 spot in Amazon's one-piece swimsuits category. Among the reviews, one of the recurring comments is how flattering the tummy area looks since it has torso ruching. One woman shared her swimsuit journey, saying, "After trying on and returning approximately two million suits...I was about to give up...and then I tried this one." And, similar to other reviews, she said, "...it sucks in my tummy about as well as an expensive Miracle Suit. Oh yeah, did I mention it's comfortable? Because it is!"
