No swimsuit is complete with a matching cover-up. And now there are hundreds of styles for plus size women to choose from to match any style, any occasion, or to wear by themselves as a stand alone fashion.

Here's a look at the various styles and materials available in today's cover-ups:

Cover-Up/Sun Dresses
Gauze Tube Dress These light weight sun dresses go effortlessly from beach to BBQ. With gentle elastic gathering covering the bust, the tube style holds you in with comfort and style. A tie at the bustline can we worn as a pretty bow, or around the neck in a halter style for added lift. The fabric falls gently from the gathered bust for great coverage of the waist and hip areas. Plus, you'll find these styles: # 11418X and 1172X, in a variety of sizes and colors: black, white, green and brown in sizes 1X-3X.

A variation on the tube dress is the smocked bandeau style #13338W in a dressier, jersey material. This style offers a flattering bi-level hem that moves with you. Ruffled trim at the top of the bust mirrors scalloped edging along the hem. This style also offers a tie front that can be bowed or worn as a halter. Available in black, brown or coral in sizes 1X-3X.

Similar to the style of the tube dress is a dress/skirt combination style #11189X. Wear it around the bust as a knee skimming tube dress or bring it down to your hips and wear it as a long gypsy skirt. This versatile style makes the most of its three ruffled tiers to provide two looks in one cover-up. Great for weekend travel when you want to pack lightly... but have a different look each day. Available in black, white and turquoise in sizes 1X-3X.

Consider the more sultry smocked baby doll sundress/cover-up that can be worn with a cap sleeve, or off the shoulder for a sexier look.
