You’ve soaked up the sun, dipped into the waves, and now it’s time for après swim—that stylish moment after the beach or pool where you transition from water mode to drinks, dinner, or a casual coastal stroll.
But if you’re tall, finding beach fashion that actually fits and looks elevated can be a challenge.
Luckily, American Tall has cracked the code on post-swim style, with pieces designed specifically for long torsos, lengthy legs, and anyone who wants to stay cool and chic around the shore or on the pool deck.
Here are some of the top beach styles we love for tall men and women that blend comfort, coverage, and modern beach fashion.
Beach Style For Tall Women: From Swimsuit to Sunset
1. Swim + Slip Dress = Instant Resort Chic
Start with our Waffled Ruched One-Piece Swimsuit in Dark Seagrass—a flattering texture and full-length fit designed for longer torsos. Step out of the water and layer on the breezy Jersey Tank Maxi Dress in Desert Rose with pockets, because you’re practical and fashionable.
Style Tip: Add espadrilles and oversized sunnies to turn this look into a beachside dinner winner.

2. Bold + Breezy in Red and Denim
Rock the Low Cut One-Piece Swimsuit in Radiant Red under a classic pair of High Rise Denim Shorts for a vibrant, casual combo that gives cool-girl confidence.
Add On: Toss on a linen button-down or oversized sun hat for that easy, effortless vibe.

3. Match Set Energy: Knitwear for After the Sun
Want to look like you belong on a yacht? The Openwork Loose Knit Top and Matching Knit Pants are your tall beach fashion answer to breezy après swim elegance.
Best For: Lounging at the cabana, coastal cafes, or impromptu golden-hour photoshoots.
4. Sleek and Covered Up
For more sun protection or post-swim coverage, layer the Gauze Cover-Up Pants or Wide Leg Linen Pants over the Long Sleeve UPF 50 One-Piece Swimsuit in Black.
Why It Works: You’ll stay cool and protected with flowy layers that don’t cling—and are actually long enough.

Beach Fashion Tips for Tall People
- Lightweight layers are key: Think linen, gauze, and breathable knits.
- Always consider length: Standard cover-ups fall short (literally) on tall frames. Go tall-specific.
- Keep it functional: Pockets, UPF protection, and moisture-wicking fabrics make a difference.
- Embrace the magic of monochrome: Going tone-on-tone keeps your look intentional, not thrown-together.
