If you've ever tugged at a swimsuit that rides up, digs into the shoulders or just doesn't sit right through the midsection, you know how frustrating it can be to find a suit that fits a longer frame. At Lands' End, our plus size long torso swimsuits are created specifically for women whose proportions fall outside the standard fit model. With extra length through the bodice and carefully placed seams, these suits sit where they should without pulling or bunching. Available in sizes 16W to 26W, the collection spans one pieces, tankinis and more, so you can find the style that feels right for your body.
The difference comes down to proportion. A standard swimsuit is cut to fit an average torso length, which means women with longer midsections often experience straps that pull, leg openings that sit too high and a bodice that constantly shifts upward.
Our long torso swimsuits add length between the bust and the hip, keeping everything in place without stretching the fabric to its limits. The result is a fit that feels natural and stays put, whether you're swimming laps, chasing kids through the surf or lounging with a book.
This collection gives you options. If you love the streamlined look of a one piece, our women's long torso one-piece swimsuits offer full coverage with the added length you need. A plus size long torso one piece swimsuit with a scoop neck or V-neck is a beautiful choice for everything from lap swimming to beach vacations.
Prefer the flexibility of swim separates? Our plus size long torso tankini tops pair seamlessly with limitless combinations of swim bottoms, giving you the coverage of a one piece with the convenience of a two piece.
The beauty of plus size tall swimsuits is that they already do the hard work of fitting properly, so styling is easier and even more fun. A bold printed tankini top over a solid high-waisted bottom creates a polished look with a lengthening effect.
For days when you want to go from the water to a seaside lunch, layer a plus size cover up over your suit for an easy transition. And because every piece in this collection features the same chlorine-resistant, UPF 50 fabric, your suit will look as vibrant in August as it did in May.
When shopping for plus size tall swimsuits, pay close attention to the torso measurement in our size chart rather than relying on your standard size alone. The torso measurement runs from your shoulder, through the crotch and back up and it's the single best indicator of how a long torso suit will fit.
If you're between sizes, consider what matters most to you: a closer fit for more support, or a little extra room for relaxed comfort. Browse the full long torso collection to see every available style with detailed measurements for each.
If standard swimsuits tend to pull at the shoulders, ride up through the body or feel too short between the bust and the hip, a long torso fit is likely right for you. Measuring your torso length and comparing it to our size chart is the most reliable way to confirm.
At Lands' End, our long torso swimsuits are specifically cut with extra length through the midsection. "Tall" is sometimes used interchangeably in the industry, but our focus is on the torso measurement rather than overall height. A woman of average height can have a longer torso and benefit from this fit just as much as someone who is tall.
Yes. Because the extra length is in the top, you can pair a long torso tankini with any of our standard bottoms. The top will provide the added coverage through the midsection, while the bottom fits as it normally would.
You've spent enough time pulling at straps and adjusting suits that weren't cut for your frame.
