It’s Not Just Swimwear, It’s Your New Favorite Bra-Sized Swimwear

We take fit personally at Bare Necessities.

It starts with bras, and it extends into everything else. It’s why we bring together the best quality, best-fitting swimwear with benefits you’ll find. Sure, you can pick up a bathing suit next to the cat food and paper towels in any big box store, but if it’s confidence and support you’re after, why would you? We owe it to ourselves to rock something that fits and flatters our figures beyond what happens to be left hanging on some rack. After all, there aren’t that many times in life we’re out in public dressed in so little (and if you are, we want to hear more about your life!)—may as well make them count.

That’s the thinking behind this season’s expanded assortment. While we’re continuing with all the lines you know and love from the top bra-makers, as well as swim with shapewear and bras built in; there’s even more to explore. Whatever your most pressing fit need or style want, we have a functional, fashionable swim solution.

Let us help you find yours and make this your best swim season yet….

One-Piece Wonder: How I Stopped Chasing a Bikini Body and Finally Felt Great in One-Piece Swimsuits


I remember the last time I looked good in a bikini. It was a tiny string number—pink with multicolored polka dots—and all eyes were on me.

I was 3 years old.

Since then, I’ve had a tumultuous relationship with swimwear. (I did wear a bikini twice on spring break my junior year of college: My Puerto Rican besties are the most beautiful and body positive girls on the island and, if only for a week, I drank their Kool-Aid while we frolicked in the Caribbean surf.)

Truthfully, no part of swimsuit season has ever been easy for me.
