Best Swimsuits for Big Bottoms

We notice many people with larger backsides compromise the look and feel of bikini bottoms in order to find ones that fit their hip size. The result? Ill fitting swimwear that doesn’t lend enough coverage, fabric, or support for women with larger butts.

We offer swimwear based on your butt size. For every hip size, we have two butt sizes – 1 (smaller) and 2 (bigger). This article is dedicated to all our Kitty Size 2’s out there. Here are our best tips on finding swimsuit bottoms for big butts:

Don’t shy away from cheeky!

If a bathing suit with cheeky coverage has been on your mind, don’t shy away from it now! Because of our revolutionary sizing metric, you’ll no longer sacrifice missing out on a cheeky bikini. The look of our swimsuits are consistent across all sizes, so the cheekiness of a bikini on a small butt will be the exact same as the cheekiness of a bikini on a larger butt! And that’s on the Kitty Size, babe. 

Check out our High Hip Bottoms, Cheeky Bottoms, and String Bottoms for that perfect cheeky look.

Wear what YOU want!

Let’s take the time to unlearn phrases like, “stripes make you look fat” or “only wear dark colors because it makes you look thinner”. These outdated sayings fail to address the fact that you have the ability to wear whatever the heck you want. The joy and excitement of fashion is finding pieces that you feel comfortable, safe, and beautiful wearing. 

So, whether you’re feeling a full coverage bikini with a bold print, a cheeky bikini bottom with a dainty floral print, or a medium coverage bikini with a gingham print, this is your time to choose a fit and style that speaks to you!

Take advice from other big bootied women!

From our all-star customer testimonials to national press coverage, we’re not known for being the champion of butts for no reason! Here’s a few of our favorite feedback about our suits from big bottomed ladies, just like you:

• “GIRL I’ve been a big booty gal for as long as I can remember and swimwear has NEVER fit my bottom! Enter Kitty & Vibe who proved me wrong the moment I saw their sizing chart that not only takes into account hip size and pant size, but offers 2 different booty sizes too! So rather than simply ordering a Large 8-10 like I usually do, I selected L2 to account for my larger, curvy booty. And GIRL… SHE FITS!” - Rachel G.
• “I got the 3XL2 in these bottoms, I am typically a size 16-18 and have a very full behind. They fit nicely, come just to my belly button and have medium coverage on my butt. Very flattering, the material is so comfortable! I’d say don’t be afraid to size up if you like a bit more coverage. Kitty has quickly become my favorite swim brand, and I hope they continue to grow!” - Joy
• “I love the fit of these! I got a M2. I haven't found a pair of cheekys I like so much. They don't turn into a wedgie like I've experienced with other brands before. They have perfect amount of coverage!” - Emily G.
• “I absolutely love these bottoms!! I ordered the S2 in willow and they fit perfectly! I normally have a hard time finding bottoms that actually cover what needs to be covered but are still cute and fun and these achieve that!” - Caroline W.
• “This is the cutest bathing suit I’ve owned in years. It’s also the most expensive, but worth EVERY PENNY. I got the XL2 and it fits perfectly. For reference, my pant size is typically either a 10 or a 12 and my booty is quite large. I typically wear XL undies and this fits true to size. I live a block from the beach and can’t wait to wear this all summer.” - Jessica F.
