Remember Y2K bandage dresses à la Kim Kardashian circa 2008? This is the bikini version — and it provides the best of both worlds.

Not a bikini person? Luckily, this two-piece swimsuit exists if you still want to tan your tummy. The top has thick straps, removable padded cups, and a V-neck that might reveal a peek of cleavage.

If you prefer a bottom that doesn't expose too much booty, then you'll be thrilled with this set's high-waisted number. “This swimsuit is one of my favorites. Great coverage and even cuter in person,” one customer praised in the reviews — and shoppers echoed it was one of those pieces that really looked as good as the photos.

This W YOU DI AN one-piece halter suit is heaven-sent for larger cup sizes.
