01Overview

The Aerie Full Coverage High Waisted Bottom is designed for those who want their swimwear to feel as good as it looks, offering generous rear and front coverage without sacrificing style. The high-rise silhouette sits comfortably above the hips, smoothing the midsection while providing a flattering, supportive fit that flatters a range of body types. Crafted from Aerie's signature stretchy, quick-drying swim fabric, this bottom moves with you, whether you're lounging poolside, swimming laps, or playing beach volleyball with friends.

Comfort is at the heart of this piece, with a soft, chlorine-resistant material that holds its shape wash after wash without losing elasticity or fading in color. The wide waistband lies flat against the skin, avoiding any pinching or rolling, while the full seat coverage eliminates the need for constant adjusting, letting you move freely and confidently all day long. This bottom pairs seamlessly with a variety of Aerie swim tops, from bandeaus to underwire styles, making it easy to mix and match for a customized swimsuit look that suits your personal style.

Available in an array of colors and prints, from classic solids to playful patterns, the Aerie Full Coverage High Waisted Bottom caters to those who want both versatility and dependable coverage in their beachwear. It's a go-to choice for women seeking a swimsuit bottom that balances modesty with modern design, ideal for vacations, beach days, or everyday sun-soaking. With its thoughtful construction and inclusive sizing options, this piece embodies Aerie's commitment to body positivity and comfort, ensuring every wearer feels confident and supported in the water or on the sand.
