There's a flattering one-piece swimsuit for everyone! Shop the 18 best from low-back to shape-enhancing styles
Whether you're jetting off to sunnier shores on holiday, heading to your local park or lido, or simply lying out in your back garden, your summer attire *needs* to include a swimsuit. Sure, we love a bikini as much as the next gal, but one-pieces are a huge SS25 swimwear trend – and for good reason. Not only do they offer more support and coverage (ideal for protecting against UV rays and if you're prone to forgetting to top up your SPF), a swimsuit can double up as a top when worn with denim shorts or a chic sarong beach cover-up. Meaning you can save valuable space in your carry-on to squeeze in just one more summer dress or an extra pair of shoes. Now that's sound style logic. To help you find the right one-piece swimwear for you, we've rounded up the hottest styles available to shop now in some of this season's biggest silhouette, print and colour trends. It feels like every swimwear brand has given its take on a black one-piece with white edging this summer. Boux Avenue even offers its best-selling Rivoli Swimsuit in the inverse colourway, too! All feature slightly different design details – be it New Look's underwired cups or Mint Velvet's tie shoulder straps – at varying price points, so there really is a monochrome swimsuit for everyone. Hunza G may be the OGs of seersucker crinkle swimwear, but in recent years, the high street has caught on to the fabric's appeal, offering their own take on the trend at a more purse-friendly price tag without compromising on the luxe textured finish. Comfortable, flattering, and with unique stretch and recovery properties, you can find crinkle swimwear in every shade of the rainbow. Let's get one thing straight: *every* body is beach body ready, but some people do feel a tad uncomfortable stripping down to just their swimwear. To help you feel your best and most confident so you can focus on enjoying your time in the sun, look for designs that encompass sculpting properties. Une Piece designs feature ingenious InvisiBust Support Technology that includes a full lining and panelled bodice to provide a supportive and firm fit, while M&S's 360 Tummy Control consists of an in-built power mesh. Alternatively, details like ruching are super flattering. Blame it on the boho revival, but when it comes to accessorising in 2025, more is more! That mantra has extended to our wardrobes with added embellishments adorning swimsuits in the form of sun-catching sequins, delicate beading and heavy-hitting studded hardware. Oceanus can't be beaten when it comes to embellished swim with endless designs and colourways that are perfect for hen dos or honeymoons that more than justify the triple figure price tag. We know we said swimsuits provide more coverage, but there are plenty of skimpy styles should you want something to rival your teeny tiny bikini on the sexy scale. Our favourite silhouette is a low-back design. Toco Swim's Celeste One Piece features criss-cross tie straps that can be tightened to cinch you in and offer a flattering custom fit, while adding interest to the back of your suit. For gals with big boobs who require a little extra support in the chest area, an underwired swimsuit might be more of a need than a want. Luckily, the fashion has caught up with the technology to offer plenty of styles that are as pretty as they are practical. Just look at Seafolly's picnic printed design in the pattern of the moment, gingham. Follow Alex on Instagram. Alexandria Dale is the Digital Fashion Writer at Cosmopolitan UK.

Get the hottest sold-out swimsuit of the summer, save up to £190 with these high-street alternatives
If there is one swimsuit to get your hands on this summer, it's this one. FASHION fans have been going wild for this monochrome one-piece from swimwear brand Away The Day. In fact, the swimsuit has proven so popular that it is currently back on pre-order. Retailing for £225, the Cannes one-piece in black/ivory has had shoppers going crazy. The design has a two-tone colourway with a high leg and thick straps, and a "U" indent at the front. However, if you don't want to wait for it to come back in stock, or are after a cheaper version, then take a look below, as the high street is full of similar alternatives. Here, Deputy Fashion Editor Abby McHale takes a look at the best out there, that will save you hundreds of pounds. BOUX AVENUE This swimsuit from Boux Avenue is a great alternative if you are looking for one with a bra cup size. Ranging from size 30B to 38G, being able to wear your correct size means it will be a great fit around your bust. The swimsuit also comes in the opposite colourway of mainly white with black lining. 6 For only £30.99, this swimsuit from New Look ticks all the boxes. With thick straps for support that also adjust depending on your preference, the two-tone colourway gives the impression of a high leg without showing too much skin. Made from tummy-control mesh power lining, this swimsuit will also skim over your waist. BRAVISSIMO 6 Buy now, £79 Known for its fuller bust lingerie, Bravissimo also has a great line of swimwear. Starting from a DD cup, this design is a great all-in-one for those with a fuller bust, with cup sizes up to HH. The balconette style provides support, with a high leg detailing that elongates the look of your legs, plus adjustable straps for a longer fit. RIVER ISLAND AT 6 Buy now, £40 Featuring a tie-back detail, which is slightly different from the other versions, the padded cups on this one-piece also make this a good choice for those with a smaller bust. Plus, it's £185 cheaper than the version from Away The Day! MONSOON One of Monsoon's bestselling swimsuits, this one-piece comes in at just under £50. Ranging from a size 8 to 22, it also has a U-shaped clasp at the front to add extra detailing. With the two-toned straps for extra support and the high leg detail, this is another fantastic high-street option. According to Boux Avenue the best swimwear for pear body shapes is a high-cut swimsuit to add length to your legs. For those with a straight body type, the underwear brand suggests a ruched swimwear option to create shape and emphasise your legs. For hourglass curves, the brand suggests a strappy swimwear style, or triangle bikini. For apple body shapes, an underwired bikini is best to work with your natural volume with a crinkle high-waist bikini brief. For round body shapes, supportive cups are a must and a high-cut leg will add poise to your swimwear body pose.
