Plus size swimwear ireland

Irish shoppers have more options than ever for finding plus size swimwear that actually fits their body and their style. Several retailers now ship to Ireland, including dedicated Irish sites and UK brands that serve the island with local delivery.

Yours Clothing options

Yours Clothing (yoursclothing.ie) runs regular sales on curve flattering styles spanning UK sizes 14-24, covering swimsuits, swimdresses, and bikinis (Yours Clothing). Their collection includes bright prints, maternity-friendly cuts, underwire bras, and tummy control in swim dresses. Tankinis and bikini sets round out the range for those wanting mix-and-match flexibility.

Next.ie curve swimwear

Next.ie offers express delivery on curve swimwear through their Irish domain, making it a strong option for shoppers who need their summer pieces quickly. Their selection features vibrant prints and classic solids, with sizing that overlaps well with UK-based retailers.

Oxendales delivery

Oxendales delivers plus size swimwear directly to Irish doors, including the Miraclesuit brand known for its shaping technology. Their customer service line is 01 8300 600 for order support (Oxendales). Oxendales targets Ireland specifically with EU pricing in euros.

Plus size swimwear with built in bra

Built-in support eliminates the frustration of finding a separate bra that works under a swimsuit. Several retailers now feature plus size swimwear with built-in bras as standard, not a premium add-on.

Supportive styles

Evans stocks plus size swimwear in UK sizes 14-40 with sculpting tummy control, supportive straps, and built-in cups (Evans). The combination of power mesh panels and adjustable straps addresses two common fit problems: ride-up and lack of support. Debenhams also offers built-in bras across their plus size range, including retro-inspired one-pieces.

High-waisted bikinis

boohoo IE promotes “snatched” looks with their plus size swimwear, including high-waisted bikinis that offer tummy coverage without sacrificing style (boohoo IE). High-waisted cuts have become one of the most requested styles for plus size swimmers, combining modesty with a figure-enhancing silhouette.

One-piece options

Simply Be Ireland has a wide selection of shapewear-integrated swimsuits in sizes 14-32, with MAGISCULPT technology that includes built-in control panels (Simply Be). Wardrobe Plus similarly emphasizes supportive fits with vibrant colours across their plus size bikinis and one-piece swimsuits.

Plus size swimwear sale clearance

Sale season is the smartest time to stock up on swimwear, and right now multiple retailers are running active discounts on plus size lines. The savings add up fast when you know where to look.

Current deals

Simply Be’s MAGISCULPT Medium Control Cherry Print swimsuit dropped from €70.00 to €57.50 — a saving of €12.50 (Simply Be). Yours Clothing’s sale section covers poolside, beach, and sun-soaking needs with styles already reduced. Evans also has sale swimwear running alongside their regular collection.

Clearance brands

Zalando IE hosts a plus size swimwear sale featuring glamorous flattering designs from multiple brands (Zalando IE). Watery.ie stocks plus size swimsuits from Mirou, Arena, Speedo, and Watery with free exchange on over 50 models (Watery.ie). EMP Shop focuses on plus size bikini sets at low prices.

Buy now pay later

Several Irish retailers offer Klarna or similar buy now pay later options, making it easier to spread the cost of summer wardrobes. Check individual retailer pages for installment availability.

Flattering plus size swimwear

Flattering is personal, but certain design features consistently earn that label from plus size shoppers. The retailers driving this category have clearly studied what works.

Trending prints

Leopard, tropical palm, aztecs, and florals dominate the trending prints across Irish retailers. Wardrobe Plus leads with vibrant supportive designs, while boohoo emphasizes the “snatched” look in bold patterns. Florals range from oversized tropical blooms to smaller delicate prints for those preferring subtlety.

Vibrant solids

Classic solids remain popular, particularly black and navy for their slimming effect. However, retailers like Wardrobe Plus have proven that bright colourways — cobalt blue, coral, emerald — sell just as well when the cut is flattering. Zalando emphasizes finding a fit that flatters your body type as the foundation of great style.

Curve flattering fits

Features like tummy control, power mesh panels, adjustable straps, and built-in cups define curve flattering fits. Evans leads with sculpting tummy control across their range. Yours Clothing includes tummy control in swim dresses specifically. Simply Be’s MAGISCULPT technology uses medium control panels for all-day comfort.

Plus size swimwear with Shorts

Coverage options matter for different reasons — sun protection, modesty preferences, or simply liking the look. Plus size swimwear with shorts and sleeve options has expanded significantly.

Shorts styles

Swim shorts attached to swimwear offer thigh coverage without the hassle of separate pieces. Swimdresses combine a skirted bottom with a fitted top, giving coverage that’s also feminine. Tankinis with attached shorts or skorts bridge the gap between one-piece and separates.

Sleeves coverage

Rash guard style swimwear with sleeves has grown in popularity for both sun protection and preference. Some retailers now offer plus size swimdresses with matching sleeve options. Boohoo IE and Debenhams feature swimdresses that provide poolside coverage while maintaining a streamlined silhouette.

Poolside coverage

For poolside lounging, cover-ups paired with swimwear solve coverage needs without overheating. Many retailers sell matching cover-up pieces designed to work with specific swimsuits. The key is choosing a swimsuit base that already includes the coverage level you want before adding layers.
