The Top 7 Swimsuits That Eliminate a Muffin Top

One of the worst (and most prevalent) swimsuit issues is a too-tight one- or two-piece that spotlights bulges or creates muffin tops. The goal is to seek out a flattering suit that 1) fits, and 2) smooths and skims. You’ll find it in a high-waist two-piece in which the bottoms hit at or above the navel. This gives the hip area some coverage and lets you sidestep the problem all together. But if you prefer a one-piece, look for a style that strategically gathers around areas you’d like to gloss over with ruching, draping, or a tie belt. 

We did all the work for you and found the best of the best in the swimwear market, from sculpted two-pieces (check out Gigi Hadid on the beach) to sleek maillots. Now you can hit the shore comfortably and confidently in one of these seven suits that will camouflage muffin tops and bulges.
