The one piece swimsuit has come a long way. They used to be seen as prude, and now they’re chic. I believe the greatest part about them is their versatility!
With a one piece swimsuit, know you’ll have the perfect outfit ready to go in a snap. They basically double as a bodysuit, and you don’t have to wear a bra (literally the best solution for a small-busted lady like myself). I have an extra-long torso, so one piece swimsuits have always been a challenge for me. Growing up, my family dressed very modestly and conservatively, so one pieces were my only option – and I would always complain to my mom that they were uncomfortable. They stretched oddly on my long, lanky form. As an adult, I hadn’t found any solutions to this issue, and even bodysuits were hard to come by.
However, I was pleasantly surprised to find out that Adore Me offered one piece swimsuits that actually fit and flattered my build. I have two of them now that I love tremendously. ASOS also offers long-torso options for swimwear, which is super appealing. What I’ve found in this gorgeous black one piece is a key item for the summer.
Let me show you why…

The foolproof way to shop for a versatile one piece swimsuit is by selecting a solid-colored item.
Black is as classically chic as it gets, so I was thrilled that Adore Me offered this particular style in a solid color along with the fun patterns. This piece can easily be taken from pool or beach to dinner and drinks. Just shimmy into a midi skirt, add some heels, and you’re set! In fact, I can imagine myself wearing this swimsuit as just a bodysuit, rather than for the sake of soaking up some sun.

I am LOVING that skirt paired with this outfit. What an awesome way to elevate your look when you’re out for a causal event at the pool or beach, but you want to keep it classy and sophisticated. LOVE your style <3
I feel one piece swimsuits are seen like old fashioned now for some reason and i never understood it! But this is gorgeous both ways. What a color! 🙂
It’s so true! One piece swimsuits have come a long way. I am obsessed with them and love yours and all the ways you’ve styled it! Way to maximize the wear out of it!!

Yes, I do love it as much as you do! I love that one pieces are “back” and can be worn in other ways. I love the ideas you give! Growing up I could only wear a one piece too, so I find it funny that it’s all I want to wear now haha!

I am blown away! This is such a creative way to style a swimsuit!
What a great swimsuit! I love anything with ruffles really. So excited that one pieces are popular again!! Bikinis are nice but one pieces have more versatility. It looks like a top the way you’ve styled it!
What a versatile swimsuit! I love it with the leopard skirt.

This is such a pretty swimsuit! I love the skirt you paired it with, doesn’t seem like a swimsuit at all. And the other pairings are all so nice too!
You look fabulous in that suit. I too love wearing my one piece as a bodysuit sometimes.
