    You can wear a bikini for as long as you feel comfortable wearing one.

    Just as long as it fits, and you're comfortable, the size and age of the wearer do not matter!

    And one can argue that even the fit of the swimsuit is irrelevant, but I think people just feel better and are more comfortable when they choose articles that fit (i.e. not falling off or, conversely, cutting into the person).

    My mom rocked a bikini until she was in her early 50's!!

    I might once I get to goal but would definitely go with the higher waisted vintage/retro look. My stomach wil never recover from the years of being obese and yo-yo dieting enough for me to show in a regular bikini but I could see myself wearing one of those. I've been thinking about something like that since Sara Rue did her Jenny Craig bikini commercials, actually:

    As long as you have a body to rock it sure , age makes no difference there are some 40 yrs olds who have great bikini bodies and some 20 yr olds who should not be wearing bikinis.

    ^^ This

    No, not this at all.

    People can wear what they want, regardless of their age, and guess what? Regardless of how YOU think they look in it. Very uncool posts.

    I'm in big trouble if there is a socially acceptable cut off date. I still wear bikinis. And I have no plans of stopping any time soon.

    I think it depends on the person and how they feel about themselves. I have NEVER been a bikini person and NEVER will be no matter if I'm fat or skinny!!!

    I have stretch marks from my crotch to my rib cage. And you know what? I'm tired of hiding them. What right does anyone have to look with disdain on what motherhood did to my body?! I'm wearing the damn bikini. :smokin:
    I read this on a Facebook post. "You are a tiger who earned her stripes." Your post is an inspiration to me? Thanks
    I wear a two piece every year, I have had stretch marks due to child birth since the age of 19 after baby #2 in January they aren't any better. I will still wear a two piece. I am hot to me, who gives a flunk what some 18 year old (or lucky 40 year old with genetics that didn't give her stretch marks) thinks. And to all you men? You don't like me don't look at me.


    I will be this way the rest of my life.

    You're never too old to wear a bikini. Doesn't matter how old you are, or what you look like. Big, small, hairy, scarred, the only opinion that counts is your own. If you're comfortable in it, wear it, rock it! Go naked if you like (and local laws allow). We're all gonna get a little wrinkled some day and trying to hide from that fact isn't doing anyone any favours.

    Age nor body type should matter. How to tell if you have a bikini body: do you have a body? Yes? Do you want to wear a bikini? Yes? You have a bikini body!

    It's nobody else's place to EVER dictate what someone should wear. If you don't like it, don't wear it yourself.

    Have to agree with this... Don't think I have ever worn one in my life and I doubt I ever will. It's just not for me.

    Should women stop wearing bikinis at a certain age?

    No, if you feel good about yourself show off your figure!After all, who has the right to tell us women how to look and what to wear?

    Why should it matter? After all, you wear the bikini (or less) to be comfortable in the heat and get sun on your skin - which is vital to build resistance and vitamin D stores for the winter to come.

    Around here you'll see all sizes and ages of women with or without bikinis. Actually you'll be more likely to see topless women 50 and up than 30 and down, and the nude beaches (which basically means any beach where you don't lie right next to everybody else) show naked bodies of all types, genders, ages and modifications. And the ladies 70+ in the neighbourhood will happily sport their bikinis in the block's common back garden too, sunning, chatting and having drinks with their friends, on sunny warm days.

    You won't see them doing that on the street of the city though. There they will be elegant, fashionable and cool - also no matter size and age.

    Its all about confidence - personally even when I was 'curvier' for want of a better word I still looked better in a bikini that a one piece - personal choice really :)
    I'm still not overly slim but I WILL rock that bikini this summer for sure :-D
