See the swimsuitHow to Choose the Right Skirt Coverage
Start with where you want coverage. An A-line skirt that ends at the upper thigh covers the hips and bottom while keeping your legs free for walking and swimming. Built-in shorts add peace of mind when you sit or climb out of the pool. Then look at the waist. Ruching gives a softer line across the tummy, and a side tie or drawstring lets you adjust the drape. If you want more arm coverage, look at the sleeved styles first.
Getting the Fit Right
Measure your bust, waist and hips and compare them to the size chart on each product page. A swim dress should feel secure through the bust and straps and comfortable across the waist, with room to sit and move. If you are between sizes, think about how much support you want.
