Bathing Boomers is a swimwear company made by older women, for older women – and it’s taking 2022’s summer style by storm with flattering, full-coverage swimwear designs.
Bathing Boomers has developed into a movement and a community that empowers mature women to embrace the warm weather unapologetically and without apprehension or self-consciousness. Bathing Boomers are a relief for women in their fifties, sixties, seventies, and beyond who want to wear flattering swim dresses in public!
The dynamic founders, 67-year-old Velvet Haney, and 74-year-old Rachel Manley originally crafted the swimwear, not for the public, but for themselves, to embrace the summer sun in its entirety.
The idea was sparked by the desire to reignite that adolescent delight for
warm summer days, packaged appropriately for the mature woman. Through firsthand experience, doubled by frustrations shared by friends, Velvet and Rachel jumped to fill the market gap for comfortable, functional bathing suits.
"So happy I found you! Feel comfortable and happy in my Bathing Boomers. Great for canoeing. Full cover from the sun while paddling and ready to swim. Great for the beach too! Even got compliments from my "fashionista" daughter on how nice it looks!" - Barbara K., Verified Customer
“My youngest son said to me, ‘that’s your happy suit – when you’re in it, you’re happy.’ And in my mind, I always think of it as my happy suit.” - Co-Founder, Rachel Manley
It was only a boozy dream that we've made real for you!
Watch our interview below with former Miss Universe, Michelle McLean
"The quality is unparalleled, the material so whisper soft and comfortable, not to mention adequately sized and proportioned for – yes! – camouflage and mind-ease of motion. What an all-inclusive big treat – it feels like winning the lottery (I can only imagine), and I will wear your fashions with much enjoyment. And BB-promotion every chance I get! 😊"

"What I love about Bathing Boomers is that you can confidently go swimming or hang out on the dock or at the pool without your arms or tummy being on display. I am also pleasantly surprised as to how comfortable the suit is! Thank you for creating a suit that helps us accept ourselves and still feel comfortable."

"Love this idea! Just to be able to walk in and out of the water without feeling self conscious would be wonderful! I hate showing my upper arms and my curves are now too ample (in my opinion) to look good in a normal swimsuit!"
