If you’re on the hunt for the best plus size swim cover ups, you’ve come to the right place! Swimsuit season is here, and beyond finding the perfect plus size swimsuit, a great coverup is the finishing touch that takes your beach or pool look to the next level.
The poolside is the new runway and your coverup should be every bit as intentional as your swimsuit!
Why Plus Size Swim Cover Ups Deserve a Spot in Your Wardrobe
A great plus size swim coverup does so much more than its name suggests. Yes, it’s perfect for those moments when you want a little more coverage heading from the pool to the bar or restaurant, but modern swim coverups are so stylish, so versatile, and so well-designed for curvy bodies that you’ll find yourself reaching for them all summer long.
Whether you’re headed to a tropical resort, a backyard pool party, the lake, or a beachside brunch, a swim cover up lets you transition seamlessly from the water to wherever the day takes you. And with options ranging from flowy kaftans and crochet maxi dresses to coverup pants, rompers, and chiffon dusters, there’s truly something for every style and every occasion.
At The Curvy Fashionista, we believe plus size swim cover ups should be just as fashion-forward and size-inclusive as the swimwear itself and this roundup proves exactly that!

5 Tips for Choosing the Best Plus Size Swim Cover Ups
Whether you’re a sarong devotee, a maxi kaftan lover, or someone who lives in beach pants, finding the right plus size swim cover up comes down to a few key factors. Here are our top 5 tips to help you shop smarter this season!
And keeping it 100… we at TCF are firm believers in owning MULTIPLE plus size swim cover ups. From crochet maxi dress coverups to two-piece sets, building a summer wardrobe with options just makes sense!
- You don’t have to match! Some women love a coordinated coverup-and-swimsuit look, while others prefer to mix and match colors and prints for a bolder vibe. Both approaches are valid… wear what makes you feel amazing!
- Add some sparkle. A plus size swim cover up with sequins, shimmer thread, or embellishments catches the light in the best way. Don’t underestimate the power of a little sparkle at the pool or beach!
- Dry off first! Chlorinated water can damage fabric, that’s why swimsuits are often made from specialty materials. Be mindful about soaking your cover up, especially delicate fabrics like chiffon or crochet.
- Don’t forget to accessorize! A great plus size swim coverup pairs perfectly with statement sunglasses, a sun hat, or bold jewelry. Check out our guide to must-have poolside accessories for inspo!
- Go BOLD! If you’re not quite ready for a head-turning swimsuit, let your coverup do the talking. Life is too short for boring beachwear, embrace color, print, and personality, babe!
