Not to be dramatic, but I practically wept tears of joy when high-waisted bikinis started to become stylish. Not only does the vintage style help me live out my '50s rom-com dreams, but they're so comfortable. If you, like me, never want to compromise style for comfort, you'll be just as happy as I am to know that high-waisted bikinis are trendier than ever right now—and, I'm not just talking about straight-up athletic bathing suits or that one you've been seeing all over TikTok (or Too Hot To Handle).

Whether these bikinis have been made famous by Instagram, your fave reality TV stars, or just Amazon reviews alone, the swimwear below isn't just stylish and comfortable—most of them are under $50, making them ultra affordable, too.

Peep a few of the best high-waisted bikinis, below:

What's even better about a high-waisted bikini is that if you like swimwear with a bit more coverage, you can still mix and match tops and bottoms—something you can't do with a one-piece or monokini.

See below for the best tried-and-tested high-waisted bikinis for every style and budget, per reviews.

A high-support top is priority for those of you with big boobs, and this stylish bikini provides that without sacrificing style. The wrap-around top features an adjustable tie back and straps along with pads and an underwire.

Rave Review: "This is my new favorite bikini! I am a curvy 5’6” and 185lbs. I got the XL and it fits perfectly. It looks and feels great—not see-through or thin. Definitely will get more in other colors! This is such a fun style. Get it!"

The ruching on these bottoms adds a bit more of a retro vibe to the already vintage silhouette, but it's also designed to add some more support to your waist, if you want it. The halter top provides medium support for your boobs, too.

Rave Review: "This is a really great bathing suit with very nice and thick material! I don’t feel it’s too sheer in any way. The pattern and design are beautiful. I like the tie halter top, and I like how you can tie/adjust the other straps under the main hook strap."

The knot-tie top and stripes on this bikini have all the nautical vibes you want out of a classic swim 'fit, but the bright colors add a fun vibe to it. There's even a classic polka dot one if you prefer that, too.

Rave Review: "Legit my favorite suit I've EVER owned! I'm a mom of three. I have not been comfortable in my own skin in years. Last year I bought several 'mom suits' but the high-waisted bottoms were ruched in the front and highlighted my pooch, and the butt had TOO much coverage. They all just looked diapery and unflattering. These aren't layered in the front, so it gives a slimmer appearance, and the high-cut bottoms show just enough cheek that I feel like more than just a mom...if you know what I mean. I feel womanly, and I feel GOOD. I'm 5'1, 140 lbs and bought the medium and it's perfect. Contemplating buying more colors!"

High-waisted bottoms don't always have to mean full coverage. So, if you want a more cheeky vibe, this is the bikini for you. The top even has a sexy under-boob cutout to make it super trendy.

Rave Review: "I love this set! It’s a true high-waisted, high-cut swimsuit! High-waisted for me means covering my belly button. It’s cheeky but not a thong if you’re not comfortable with that."

This one practically offers more coverage than some one pieces out there. So, if you want the mix-and-match options of a bikini with the coverage of a one-piece, you'll love this one. The scoop neckline goes higher than most bikinis, too.

Rave Review: "All I can say is wow!!! Buying bathing suits is always so hard for me and I’m just amazed that a 'cheap' bathing suit fits me better than the extremely expensive ones I’ve tried. I’m a size 12 and my bust is a 34H making finding fitting tops extremely difficult. Not only does this fit like a glove but it covers all of my boobs up and it keeps them lifted!"

Ruffles aren't just for your fave summer sun dress. With frills on the top and bottom, don't be surprised if you end up wearing the top as a cute crop top with shorts or a skirt, too. Not in to the tropical print? It comes in 12 other patterns and colors, including a classic black.

Rave Review: "Seriously, this bathing suit has been the first swimsuit I've gotten since giving birth a year ago to get me excited about getting half naked. I’m not the kind of person to post pictures of myself in a bathing suit, but here I am—20 lbs overweight, with a mom pooch, and showing off my bathing suit. I’ve told all my friends about this because it’s just so flattering. It’s high-waisted, but not too high-waisted. I couldn’t have asked for a better two piece to show off my new body."

Not all bikini tops need to be super fitted, so if you want something airy, roomy, and comfortable, this top has you covered (literally). Plus, these high-waisted bottoms go higher up than most, which is what makes this the most comfy option on this list. And, how fun is that pom pom trim?

Rave Review: "Ok. I never write reviews. But, wow! I love this comfy suit and I know I’ll feel confident at the beach and pool this summer. I’m 5’3”, 135 lbs. and have five kiddos. I wear a B cup bra size. After much debate, I ordered the small. It’s the perfect fit, it’s not snug anywhere, and yet I feel it supports my tummy. I needed this bikini! I read a reviewer who said to hand-wash it so the tassels do not get ruined. I plan to do that. Thanks for getting what I needed, Tempt Me brand! You did good."

Not ready for a full cutout? Mesh is a great way to play with the sexy trend without going full on with it. You can easily pair these striped mesh bottoms with nearly any top in your swimwear wardrobe, but how cute is this tassle-trimmed triangle top?

Rave Review: "I was nervous to buy a swimsuit online but this exceeded expectations! It is fashionable, cute, sexy, and fit my curves just right. Also, the quality of the garment is good, too. Good buy!"

You can count on Lululemon to make swimwear that's just as good for athletes as their iconic leggings are. These bottoms are quick-drying and feature a fabric that's specifically designed not to dig in to the skin while you clock in laps—catch the matching top here.

Rave Review: "Perfect high-waisted bottoms. They are comfortable, stylish and perfect for a mama. I was looking for something just like this after having two kids and they are exactly what I was looking for. They go to my belly button, do not fall down, stay put, and aren't too tight. Stylish and practical."

Made out of recycled materials, Summersalt's trendy bathing suits are all designed with the earth in mind, but this neutral color-blocked one is a true fan favorite. They offer a wider range of sizing than most swimwear brands, too.

Rave Review: "This swimsuit fits perfectly and feels like the best quality swimsuit I have ever had. I usually get swimsuits from any department store but now I will never get one from anywhere other than Summersalt, I'm sold."

Those who live in airy maxi dresses in the summertime may feel a magnetic pull to this boho chic-style bikini. The tassles, fun print, and pop of red come together for a totally carefree vibe.

Rave Review: "If you are looking to buy this bathing suit, PLEASE GET IT. I fell in love from the pictures of it and when I got it I loved it more. I haven't worn a two-piece in about four years and I do not regret this. I love it."

You can't get more classic than a blue striped bikini, and this one features a sexy under-boob cutout for a trendy twist on the traditional silhouette. (Yacht not included.)

Rave Review: "Scrunch booty, v-waistline, and under-boob action. The perfect swimsuit all around."

With a high neckline and padded cups, this high-support top is great for those of you who have bigger boobs or just prefer more coverage. It's available in 15 different color options, and you could easily wear the top as a crop top with jeans or a skirt, too.

Rave Review: "For the cost, this swimsuit was exactly what I wanted. High-waisted and good chest coverage. I'm looking at ordering another color! I wear size 14-16 and ordered XL and it fit great!"

Another great swimwear option for those with bigger boobs, this medium-support top features a halter neckline and padded cups. But, my favorite part? How adorable those buttoned '50s-style bottoms are. These are practically begging for a spot on your Instagram grid.

Rave Review: "OKAY so let me rant for a sec about this amazing suit. I was a little worried about ordering a suit on Amazon, but I thought I'd give it a shot. This thing is DROP DEAD GORGEOUS. The material isn't thin/see-through, the straps are adjustable, and it doesn't just slide down your curves. I wanted something that wouldn't leave me feeling like my whole body was on display, but I still like to feel sexy. This hit the mark. I'm definitely buying another."

Not too matchy matchy, this brightly-hued, daisy-printed bikini's great for those of you who already have a stocked swimwear drawer and want something new or different. Plus, the strapless bandeau top means no tan lines!

Rave Review: "Great fit. Top stays up without having to constantly adjust it. Bottoms aren’t too revealing. Likely going to buy in another color."

Ok, so this isn't exactly cheap, but if you really just want to invest in one pair of good quality high-waisted bottoms that you can pair with any of the tops in your swimwear drawer, this is the one for you. It's even made with recycled fabric.

Rave Review: "I bought this for a fuller coverage suit while chasing little kids around and am very happy. The gathered sizes look nice and the rise is flattering in the back. I also love the option that I could match this with either a bikini top and rash guard."

Not super high-waisted, this one will probably come right to the middle of your waist or right at the belly button. It also has a short sleeve for those of you who want a bit more arm coverage (or just like those adorable ruffles).

Rave Review: "Fits cute, very flattering and unusual style. Very glamorous. So many people asked about my suit! Feels a bit heavy when wet....swimming. Not a deal breaker...super cute!"

The tie waist on this one-shoulder top offers an adjustable fit, but it also makes it super cute. It comes in 24(!) colors and prints, too.

Rave Review: "I really like this bathing suit. It is well-made, thick, and is very soft. The bathing suit does not slip and slide but it is on the cheekier side. I would recommend this bathing suit and has been my favorite ones I’ve ordered off of Amazon. Just bought another one in black. I’m a size 12 with a 38D bra size and ordered an XL. The XL isn’t tight but not loose either. The sizing seems to be very accurate and I think the XL would work best for sizes 12-14."

Ok, so this influencer-loved bikini alone isn't high-waisted, but the straps on it will extend up to your rib cage, and the sarong it comes with can be worn high-waisted. The color-blocked pattern is just so chic, and the ties on the top, bottom, and skirt mean you can customize the fit to your level of comfort.

Rave Review: "Best bikini I own. Super comfy and the bottoms don’t create a camel toe look in the front. Doesn’t cover much in the back, so fair warning. Top fits as expected. But, I love that I can wear it so many ways."

Whether you're a frequent paddleboarder or just want something with a bit more coverage at the beach, these compression swim shorts from Good American are super versatile. They double as biker shorts you can pair with a sports bra for a workout or sweatshirt to channel your inner Princess Diana. They admittedly don't have tons of reviews, but I can personally attest to how much I love these—I wear them at least twice a week in the summer time for workouts and errands alike.

Rave Review: "Great fit. Very comfortable."

Everyone loves a supportive, comfy fit, but it's practically integral for someone who's pregnant. The little ties on these cute ruched bottoms are super cute, but they're also there to offer a customizable fit to a growing belly.

Rave Review: "These are very comfortable and perfect for pregnancy! Doesn’t make you feel overly exposed, either (less to sunscreen on that belly, as well!). So much easier to slide these down for frequent bathroom trips vs. a one piece, too! I’m fully confident these will stretch as far as my pregnancy takes me but also be a cute option I’m excited to wear at all stages, probably even postpartum!"
