14 High-Cut One-Piece Swimsuits That'll Turn Heads This Summer
They have my attention.


Over the past few seasons, the high-cut one-piece swimsuit has reemerged both poolside and on Instagram, giving the bikini a run for its money. (When I was younger, I wouldn't be caught dead at the local community pool in a one-piece, but today—now that I'm older and wiser—I find the high-cut one-piece sexier and more feminine than our old friend the bikini.) From cheeky backsides to plunging fronts, and every possible cut-out imagined to minimize tan lines, there is no reason not to give one a try. Especially, when this high-cut leg and curve-hugging swimsuit silhouette can be found in every color, print, and texture. I have searched the depths of the Internet for the most flattering options available now. #Triggerwarning: If you haven't already daydreamed about a summer vacation, you will be by the time you've scrolled to the bottom of this page.
Myra Swim Not Your Mother's One-Piece
This sexy, high-cut swimsuit hugs you in all the right areas and comes with a padded top for that extra boost in support.

Latex catsuit or swimsuit? This shiny-finish one-piece speaks to both styles and would definitely be Halle Berry-approved.

This floral print was all over the Fendi runway for spring/summer 2020. You can bet on this swimsuit having a moment on rooftops (and balconies) in the concrete jungle this summer.
Dodo Bar Or A Sunday Drive Swimsuit
This retro floral print swimsuit with its plunging neckline, high-cut legs, and flattering center twist detail is perfect for summer. Round out your look with this pink convertible car float and you're ready for that summer drive-in.

Dos Gardenias Bae-Watch
Hubba hubba! All I see when looking at this high-cut, v-neck swimsuit is a slow motion Baywatch scene. Take it easy in this number, the lifeguards might be asking for mouth to mouth.

There's nothing better than having a solid white swimsuit highlight your sun-kissed skin. Try this sexy, high-cut one-piece with sneaky side cut-outs.
