Plus Size Swimwear Patterns

Every body is a summer body and every summer body needs swimwear!

This year I took my family on a road trip up the east coast of Australia to stay on the Gold Coast. All of a sudden I needed swimmers! I decided to take on the challange of making my own swimsuit because I wanted to feel truely comfortable while wearing them. I did lots of research on plus size swimwear patterns and that research turned into this list! I hope that you can find some beautiful swimwear options for yourself and that this list will be helpful for every body.

Plus size swimwear can be hard to find, in ready made swimwear and in patterns. When designers do put in the effort, it's time to celebrate!
