What's the difference between a bikini and a one-piece swimsuit?

A bikini is a two-piece swimsuit that includes a separate top and bottom. The style is generally easier to take on and off, plus it gives you the option to mix and match styles and colors. In contrast, a one-piece swimsuit is a single garment that covers both the bust and the hips together, usually having the most overall coverage.

Should you wear a bra under a bikini?

You don’t need to wear a bra under a bikini. Bikini tops are designed to provide enough support and coverage. Many styles—even skimpy bikinis—come with built-in features such as adjustable straps, supportive bands, molded cups, or padding to help shape and lift. If you’re looking for extra lift and support, choose a bikini top with underwire or thicker straps.

Q: What type of bikini is best for a big bust?

Look for bikini tops with underwire, molded cups, or thicker straps because these elements help keep you secure. Styles like full coverage bikinis are especially good because the extra coverage helps minimize movement.

Bikinis from Victoria's Secret Swim

Every woman deserves to feel confident in their swimwear. That's why the VS bikini collection has every bikini style under the sun. Whether you're lounging by the pool, strolling on the beach, or enjoying a pool party, finding the right bikini is about more than just size. It's about how it makes you feel—empowered, comfortable, and a little sexy.

Our Sexy Bikini Collection: Styles for Every Vibe

Bikinis are some of the most diverse types of swimwear with different cuts, fabrics, and embellishments that affect the overall look. From classic cuts in the VS Archives to the latest trends and colors, each piece is designed to celebrate summer.

High-Waisted Bikinis

High-waisted bikinis are a fantastic choice. These bottoms sit comfortably at your natural waist, creating a flattering silhouette that covers your tummy and elongates your legs. They provide more coverage for comfortable support and a streamlined look. This style is a popular pick for women who appreciate a touch of retro fashion while still feeling current and chic.

Underwire Bikinis

Our underwire bikini tops are designed to give you more lift and shape, just like your favorite bra. The built-in underwire makes the band stable. It's common for underwire bikinis to include padding akin to push-up bikinis. If you've ever wondered what type of bikini is best for a big bust, you'll find underwire styles provide the best support.

Tankinis

When you want the convenience of a two-piece but prefer a bit more coverage, tankinis are your best friend. A tankini top extends down to your waist or hips, like the feeling of a tank top. The beauty is you can pair the top with a mix and match bikini bottom which can be easier to take on and off, especially when you have to go to the bathroom.

Triangle Bikinis

Timeless and classic, triangle bikinis have a simple and incredibly chic design. Two triangular pieces attach to a thin band and string straps that usually tie around the neck and back. The delicate, feminine look is great for tanning and may come with removable padding for a little extra shape or discretion.

Strapless Bikinis

Say goodbye to tan lines with a strapless bikini top. Strapless styles have a clean look that shows off your neck and shoulders. For the greatest lift, look for options with underwire and lining. Bandeau bikinis are other strapless styles that are easy to take on and off. We love details like fun prints, bows, ruching, or metallic accents.

Cut-Out & Strappy Designs

Cut-out and strappy bikinis are a highlight of the VS Swim collection. These contemporary styles have sexy cut-outs and intricate strap details that add an exciting edge to your swimwear. They make a style statement and add the illusion of accessories to your look.

Cheeky Bikini Bottoms

Looking for something flirtier and sexier? Cheeky bikini bottoms offer a bit less coverage than traditional cuts, designed to subtly show your curves. They’re super popular for their fun, flirty vibe and have more coverage than a thong and less coverage than a brief or swim shorts.

Brazilian Bikini Bottoms & Thongs

Brazilian bikinis are another cheeky style—literally, a Brazilian bikini bottom has less coverage in the back compared to traditional bikini bottoms. The style highlights and flatters your natural curves. They are a popular sexy swimsuit style, perfect for tanning.

Dive into Color: Popular Bikini Colors

Just like all fashion, color plays a huge role in swimwear. The right color will enhance your skin tone and energize your mood. While every color can be fun and flattering when you wear it with confidence, here are some popular bikini colors.

Black Bikinis: Black is timeless for a reason. It's easy to mix and match a black bikini top or bottom. It's versatile, chic, and universally flattering.
White Bikinis: Crisp and fresh, a white bikini highlights a sun-kissed glow. White swimwear has a sense of luxury, and it stands out in blue water and green tropical settings.
Red Bikinis: Feeling bold and passionate? A red bikini has a sense of confidence, energy, and romance.
Brown Bikinis: Earthy and sophisticated, brown bikinis are having a major moment. From rich chocolate tones to warm, sandy hues, brown swimwear feels natural and complements a wide range of skin tones.
Prints and Patterns: Why choose just one color when you can have a pattern? Explore feminine floral bikinis to exotic animal prints, bold geometrics, and playful stripes.

Mix, Match & Make It Your Own: Bikini Sets & Separates

One of the most exciting things about shopping for bikinis at Victoria's Secret is the freedom to create your own look. While we offer stunning pre-matched bikini sets that take the guesswork out of styling, we also empower you to mix and match. Need a few new bikini bottoms for your next trip? Conveniently shop tops and bottoms as separates.

Finding Your Perfect Size: Our Sizing Guide

Both size and style play an important role in getting the right bikini fit. In general, the less coverage there is, the less support there is. Which means if you have dense breasts or a larger bust, you might find more comfort in bikinis with straps, underwire, and lining.

We recommend confirming your size with the size chart for each product which provides specific measurements for busts, waists, and hips. Many of our bikinis are sold according to your bra size.
