The Best Swimsuit Cover-Ups for Women Over 50: Flattering, Comfortable, and Chic
Alright, let’s talk about one of the unsung heroes of summer style: swimsuit cover-ups for women over 50! Whether you’re chillin’ poolside, strolling the boardwalk, or headed straight from the beach to the smoothie bar, you need a cover-up that offers just enough coverage while keeping you cool and stylish. These options are perfect for tossing over your favorite swimsuit (one-piece or bikini, you do you!), and they’ll have you feeling confident from the sand to snacks.
The Best Swimsuit Cover-Ups for Women Over 50
Pink Maxi Cover-Up – CUPSHE Kimono Swimsuit Coverup
This cover-up is everything you want for sunny days and beach getaways. It’s lightweight, breathable, and the color is a total mood booster, bright pink that feels fun and feminine. The V-neckline and high-low hem give it a breezy silhouette, while the soft, flowy fabric keeps you cool
Hot Pink Cover-Up – Ekouaer Women’s Beach Cover-Up Shirt Dress
This hot pink number is bright, bold, and ready for vacation! It has a breezy, shirt-dress vibe that works great over any type of swimwear. With a flattering V-neck (also on the back!) and side slits to keep you cool, it’s the perfect throw-on piece. Pair it with sandals and oversized sunglasses for a full beach look.
Long Sheer Cover-Up – Bsubseach Boho Maxi
I love a long cover-up, and this one is giving major resort energy! It’s a long, sheer tunic with flowy sleeves, like something you’d wear while sipping lemonade on a lounge chair. This is perfect for days when you want a little drama and a lot of airflow. It moves beautifully with the breeze and works especially well over a one-piece swimsuit or high-waisted bikini.
Lightweight Printed Kimono Cover-Up – Long Flowy Layer
This elegant kimono-style cover-up is the perfect mix of coverage and charm. With its long, flowing silhouette and chic printed pattern, it adds instant polish to your beach look. The material is soft and lightweight, making it perfect for hot, sunny days, while the open front and 3/4 sleeves give it a relaxed, airy feel. Whether you’re lounging by the pool or heading to lunch with friends, this piece layers beautifully over any swimsuit, and even works over a tank and shorts when you want a little extra flair.
Cover-Up Dress with Drawstring Waist – Bsubseach
Looking for a cover-up that can go straight to dinner? This spaghetti strap dress is great for when you need to run into a restaurant but don’t want to look like you should still be sitting poolside. It has POCKETS, and comes in a ton of different colors. You could honestly just wear it as a sundress, no one would know!
Talbots Aqua Club Gauze Shirt Cover-Up – Côte D’Azur
Gurl, this one is giving nautical but make it fabulous vibes. The cotton gauze fabric is breathable, and the shirt-style design is classic, with pops of color that just scream “I’m on vacation!” You can wear it open like a duster or buttoned as a tunic. Throw it over your favorite swimsuit with sandals and a straw hat, and you’ve got yourself a Pinterest-worthy poolside outfit.
Ekouaer V-Neck Cover-Up Dress – Short Sleeve
This cover-up is simple, lightweight, and very flattering. It’s got a V-neck, a little flutter in the short sleeves, and just the right amount of room through the waist and hips. I’d call this my “grab and go” cover-up, perfect when you’re headed out the door with your beach bag, towel, and the grandkids yelling “Wait for me!” lol.
Lands’ End Lace Mini Cover-Up Dress
Oo – la -la! This lacy beauty is all about feminine flair while still offering real coverage. The long sleeves are great for a little sun protection, and the lace adds a resort-chic touch that makes it feel a little more dressed up. The fit is relaxed and comfy, but still stylish enough for lunch on the patio. Bonus: it’s lined, so it’s not see-through. Win-win.
Elan Wrap Maxi Cover-Up Dress – Nordstrom
Fancy! This wrap cover-up is sleek and sophisticated! It ties at the waist to highlight your shape, and the slit adds some sass (without sacrificing coverage). Great for date night after the beach or walking around the resort. Just add a floppy hat and a margarita, and you’re set.
Eicolorte Sarong Pareo with Tassels
This little sarong wrap is a summer MVP. It’s sheer, flirty, and easy to tie around your hips like a skirt, ideal when you just need something quick to cover your bottom. Lightweight and dries in a flash, which makes it perfect to toss in your cart for your next beach trip. Gurls, don’t underestimate a good sarong, it brings that effortless vibe and works with every swimsuit. Available in several different colors, some with tassels and without, and different lengths!
Kimono Style Beach Cover-Up – Swimsuit Cardigan
Last but not least, the kimono-style cover-up is your versatile queen. It’s flowy, dramatic, and pairs perfectly with both swimwear and real clothes, I even wore mine over a tank and shorts to dinner once! Lightweight fabrics, vibrant prints, and an open front make this ideal for layering. Add sandals and big earrings, and you’ve got an easy vacation-ready outfit in seconds.
There you go, your go-to guide for the best swimsuit cover-ups for women over 50. Whether you love a classic tunic, a flirty sarong, or a long wrap dress, there’s a flattering option here to suit your style.
