Our goal is to help women feel comfortable in their swimwear. You won't have to scramble for a cover-up when you wear a Bathing Boomers suit. The upper arms and a good part of the legs are covered, and the design minimizes the look of the midsection. Our suit camouflages the primary ‘problem areas’ of the senior woman’s body. Our Bathing Boomers suits are here to fit your many different lifestyle needs. You can kayak, hike, wash the dog, wash the car, go for long walks, swim far distances (our co-founder infamously swam across Lake Como in her BB suit, got out of the water, and sat down for lunch at the patio of the elegant Villa d'Este), or lounge by the pool, beach, or dock. Customers write to us asking if the suit works for women who've had breast cancer. Our co-founder, Velvet, had a bi-mastectomy 24 years ago, at the age of 42. Velvet and Rachel designed the suit with breast cups for extreme comfort to those who have experienced single-, double- or partial mastectomy.
