Summer is officially here, which means it's time to break out the swimsuits! However, one common problem that many women face is having their swimsuit ride up. This can be extremely frustrating and uncomfortable. In this blog post, we will discuss some tips and tricks on how to keep your swimsuit from riding up.
Tips to Prevent Your Swimsuit from Riding Up
There are many factors that can contribute to your swimsuit riding up. Some of these include the type of swimsuit you're wearing, the fit of the swimsuit, and even your body type. By taking some preventative measures, you can help to keep your swimsuit from riding up.
1) Choose the Right Swimsuit
One of the most important factors in preventing your swimsuit from riding up is to choose the right swimsuit. If you are opting for a two-piece swimsuit, make sure that the bottoms fit snugly around your hips. Avoid swimsuits with string ties or bandeaus, as these are more likely to ride up. Instead, look for swimsuits with thicker straps that will provide more support.
If you are wearing a one-piece swimsuit, make sure that it is not too loose. Again, thicker straps will provide more support and help to keep your swimsuit in place. Avoid cotton thread that will become weakened by chlorine and salt water. Instead, opt for a polyester thread. The key is to find a swimsuit that fits well and provides support.
2) Consider Your Body Type
Your body type can also play a role in how likely your swimsuit is to ride up. If you have a curvier figure, you may want to consider a one-piece swimsuit with ruching in the middle. This will help to camouflage any problem areas and prevent your swimsuit from riding up.
If you have a smaller chest, you may want to avoid wearing a bandeau top. Instead, opt for a tankini or triangle top. These styles will provide more support and help to keep your swimsuit in place.
3) Adjust the Fit

If you find that your swimsuit is riding up even after you've chosen the right style, you may need to adjust the fit. Start by tightening the straps. If you are wearing a one-piece swimsuit, make sure that the bottom is not too loose. You may also want to try a smaller size if your swimsuit is too big.
The key is to make sure that your swimsuit fits well. By taking the time to find a swimsuit that fits properly, you can help to prevent it from riding up.
4) Use Swimsuit Tape
If you are still having trouble keeping your swimsuit in place, you may want to try using swimsuit tape. This is a special type of tape that is designed to adhere to enough fabric and skin. You can use it to secure the edges of your swimsuit in place. This will help to keep it from riding up and provide extra support.
The swimsuit tape should be applied to clean, dry skin. Make sure that you test it on a small area first to make sure that you are not allergic to the adhesive. Once you've applied the double sided tape, press down firmly to secure it in place.
5) Try a Swimsuit with a Built-in Bra
If you are having trouble finding a swimsuit that fits well, you may want to try a swimsuit with a built-in bra. This can provide extra support and help to keep your damp suit in place. Look for swimsuits with wide straps and a supportive band and leg holes. This will help to keep your bust in place and prevent your swimsuit from riding up.
The key is to find a swimsuit that provides the right amount of support. By taking the time to find a well-fitting swimsuit, you can help to prevent it from riding up.
6) Use Safety Pins
If you are still having trouble keeping your swimsuit in place, you may want to try using safety pins. Simply take a safety pin and attach it to the inside of your swimsuit. This will help to keep the material in place and prevent it from riding up.
You have a few options when it comes to safety pins. You can use regular safety pins or you can purchase swimsuit clips. These are specially designed clips that are made to keep the suit's elastic in place. Pins can be found at most craft stores, while swimsuit clips can be found at some department stores or online.
7) Try One Piece Swimsuit

Another option you have is to try a one-piece swimsuit. This type of swimsuit will provide the rear covered look and can help keep your suit from riding up. One-piece bathing suits are also a great option if you are concerned about your stomach area.
You can find one-piece swimsuits in a variety of styles. Some have a high neckline while others are strapless. You can also find one-piece swimsuits stretch with built-in bras for extra support.
8) Glue your backside
If you are wearing a two-piece swimsuit, you may want to consider gluing your backside. This can help keep your bottom from riding up. You can find body glue at most beauty stores.
The glue will temporarily adhere your skin to the fabric of your swimsuit. Be sure to test the fabric glue work on bathing suits and small areas of skin before applying it to your entire backside. It is also important to remove the glue properly and check your skin tone.
9) Try High-Waisted Bottoms
Another option you have is to try high-waisted bottoms. This type of bottom can provide more coverage and can help keep your swimsuit from riding up. Shrink swimsuit bottoms are also a great option if you want to instantly feel sexier.
The downside to bikini bottoms is that they are not always the most flattering bit onto your butt. If you are self-conscious about your midsection, you may want to skip this style.
10) Choose the Right Size
One of the best ways to keep your swimsuit from riding up is to make sure you choose the right size. If your bathing suit is too big, it is more likely to ride up. Make sure you try on your swimsuit before you buy it to ensure a good fit.
The right size is important for comfort and avoiding a wardrobe malfunction. Swimsuit shopping is much easier when you can instantly pinpoint what fits and what doesn't. If you are unsure about what size to choose, ask a salesperson for help. You can also consult a size chart.
7 Sings of a Poorly Fitting Swimsuit
There are a few key signs that indicate a swimsuit is not a good fit. If you notice any of the following, it's time to find a new swimsuit:
1) The Bottoms Are Saggy
If the bottoms of your swimsuit are saggy, it is probably too big. This can cause them to ride up and become uncomfortable. A well-fitting swimsuit should hug your curves without being too tight.
The bottoms of your swimsuit should also provide adequate coverage. If they are too small, they will ride up and expose more skin than you may be comfortable with.
2) The Top Is Too Big
If the top of your swimsuit is too big, it can cause the straps to slip off your shoulders. This can be very annoying and uncomfortable. Make sure the top of your swimsuit fits snugly without being too tight.
The straps of your swimsuit should also provide adequate support. If they are too loose, they will not be able to keep the top in place.
3) The Swimsuit Pinches
If your swimsuit is pinching you in any way, it is probably too small. This can cause the fabric to ride up and become uncomfortable. Choose a swimsuit that is snug without being too tight.
The best way to determine if a swimsuit is too small is to try it on. If it feels uncomfortable in any way, it is probably not the right size.
4) You Can’t Move
If you feel like you can’t move your arms or legs properly in a swimsuit, it’s probably riding up. This is a common problem with one-piece swimsuits. The best way to avoid this is to make sure you buy a swimsuit that fits properly.
If you’re buying a one-piece, make sure it’s not too tight in the body or legs. If you’re buying a two-piece, make sure the bottoms are not too tight.
5) It’s Uncomfortable

If you’re buying a one-piece, make sure it’s not too tight in the body or legs. If you’re buying a two-piece, make sure the bottoms are not too tight.
It’s also important to choose a swimsuit that is made from breathable fabric. This will help you avoid feeling uncomfortable in the heat.
6) The Cups Squeeze Your Boobs
If the cups of your swimsuit are too small, they will squeeze your boobs and cause them to spill over the top. This can be very uncomfortable and unflattering. Make sure you choose a swimsuit with cups that fit properly.
The best way to determine if a swimsuit has the right cup size is to try it on. If the cups are too small, they will not be able to hold your breasts and they will spill out. If the cups are too big, they will not provide adequate support.
7) The Waistband Is Uncomfortable
If the waistband of your swimsuit is too tight, it will dig into your skin and be very uncomfortable. Make sure you choose a swimsuit with a waistband that is snug without being too tight.
When you’re trying on swimsuits, pay attention to how the waistband feels. If it’s uncomfortable, it’s probably not the right size.
