FigLeaves Tall One Piece Swimming Suits

This post has been a long time in the works, and we’re sorry for the delay! With COVID, this has been one wacky/rough year. I think we’re all in agreement about that. A long time ago now, we had some requests for where to find tall/long swimsuits. So better late than never, we hope? Swimsuit shopping is hard enough for most women, and then you add the stress of not having a fraction of the options that mainline retailers offer. 

Enter Fig Leaves! No more do we have to wonder where we can find well-fitting swimsuits. They have an incredible selection of suits in longer length. Both of us can verify, the length works well and will even work for taller than 6’4 because I didn’t even have to adjust the length like I normally would!

 Not to mention, we don’t have to worry about the suit doing the dreaded pull that ill-fitting one pieces do when you’re trying to stretch them long enough. You know the one, where your boobs are pancaked flat and there is no delineation or curve. It’s an easy tell for women who are just doing their best with what they can find. Well we’re here to relieve you of that issue. 

Check out how well these suits hug our curves! The natural waist is *gasp* in the actual spot where my natural waist is. For Caitlin, she doesn’t have to size up to ensure her boobs are adequately covered/not falling out. Shop her suit, here. All of this sounds like silly regular stuff, but believe us, they have been sticking points in our search for one piece suits over the years. 

In fact, it has completely deterred us from wearing one piece swimming suits. We’ve been pretty much bikini girls since we hit puberty and left the tankinis behind. While we will never transition fully to one or the other, I can tell you with complete sincerity that I’ve never felt as good wearing a one piece suit as I did when I put this polka dot beauty on from Figleaves! Shop my suit, here.

The other part we’ve historically struggled with (on any swimsuit) is the butt coverage. If you do too little, it leaves us feeling rather European and exposed. If you overdo it, all of a sudden we’re feeling matronly. We are both like Goldilocks, wanting just the right amount of butt cheek to be shared.  Again, Figleaves manages to check the box. Walking around in these suits, they don’t ride up and need to be constantly adjusted. 

The price ranges from $40-$135, so there’s sure to be a suit that will fit your budget. They are high quality suits so if you spend a bit more than you typically might, feel confident in your purchase! Their styles are all timeless and classic, yet current! We have a wide range of followers searching for suits and we honestly feel like there is something for everyone. 

Lastly, I know one of the most underrepresented groups are tall plus sized women. We’re super happy to share that they go up to size 22 Long! We’re both wearing size 12 L and feel like their sizing is spot on. 

So if you haven’t heard of Figleaves before today, go shopping! Summer is running out and you need a suit that you can feel confident in ASAP. We’ve seen this repeated many times now, but it bears repeating. If you’re trying to figure out how to get your beach body ready; step 1 go put on a swimming suit you love. Step 2, go enjoy yourself because there is no such thing as needing to have a “beach body!”
