This Is The Best High-Waisted Bikini, Says Math

Out of all of the clothes you buy, swimwear is one category that has the most criteria to fulfill. Yes, fit, quality, and comfort are always a priority. But, a subpar swimsuit can't hide under your clothes — as opposed to "laundry day" underwear — you're going to need to feel confident wearing it in public. And, in return, it's going to need to hold up, in or out of the water. So, for this week's Rank & Style search, we went after the best high-waisted bikini available.

The high-rise style has a fairly universal appeal. For ladies with long torsos, it helps balance proportions, while those who are short waisted can reap the benefits of a cut that emphasizes their already longer legs. Plus, it hugs and supports the tummy, which is beneficial whether you're slim, rounder in the middle, or just love to indulge at lunch. Topping Rank & Style's list is Clover Canyon's Tobacco Fields Bikini, earning high marks based on popularity and editor reviews.

Hitting right at the belly button, the kooky-patterned bottoms lend themselves for plenty of swimwear-clashing possibilities — both with or without its intended coordinating top. With this high-waisted bottom running low on the the web, we've tracked down as many versions of these Clover Canyon bottoms as we could find (and in additional patterns, too) ahead.
