Listen. We *just* wrapped our deep dive into all things plus size swim last week… and right on cue, Megan Thee Stallion said, “Let me go ahead and raise the stakes.”

Okay, Megan did not just raise the bar… she expanded the whole pool deck.

Just in time for summer, Meg Thee Stallion x Walmart Collection is back with their second Hot Girl Summer swimwear collection, and this drop is doing what so many brands say they will do but rarely deliver on: true expansion, real inclusivity, and a little extra fun for everybody involved.

And yes, we said everybody.

Because this time? The size range goes all the way up to 5XL for women AND MEN!

Let’s get into why this collection is a moment, and if you were waiting? This might be your sign to move.

The Size Range: XS to 5XL (And Actually Available)

Let’s start with what matters.

The Meg Thee Stallion x Walmart Collection runs from XS to 5XL (5XL on Meg’s site, 3X on Walmart), and that extension is not just for show. It is already resonating, with early demand proving exactly what we already know: when you *actually* include people, they show up.

And quickly.

For a swim category that has historically left plus size shoppers with limited (and often lackluster) options, this feels like a shift worth noting.

Big & Tall Representation? Yes, That Too.

Now here is a detail we love to see.

The extended sizing up to 5XL also includes men’s Big & Tall options, which means this is not just a win for plus size women, but for the Big & Tall men who are often left out of fashion conversations entirely.

And let’s be honest, Big & Tall swim options that are actually stylish, on-trend, and part of a larger fashion moment? Still rare.

This inclusion does a few key things:

Expands who gets to participate in “Hot Girl Summer” energy
Brings more visibility to underserved menswear shoppers
Makes this collection feel truly community-driven, not siloed

Because inclusivity does not stop at one category, and Megan clearly understood the assignment.

Megan’s Vision: A Hot Girl Universe for Everybody

Megan is very clear about what she is building, and it goes beyond swim.

 “I really wanted to expand my reach with this year’s collection and bring everyone into my Hot Girl Universe. Our brand is all about inclusivity, so it was important for me to design pieces for everyone to kick off the summer in style. It’s going to be so much fun seeing the Hotties and their pets wearing their matching looks.”

And honestly? That vision is coming through loud and clear.

Because this is not just a drop. It is a lifestyle expansion.

From Swim to Lifestyle: Walmart Weighs In

And Walmart is just as aligned on the bigger picture.

As Ryan Waymire, Senior Vice President of Women’s Fashion at Walmart U.S., shared:

“After the incredible response to Megan Thee Stallion’s debut swim collection last year, we’re excited to build on that momentum by expanding Hot Girl Summer into a true lifestyle brand. From women’s and men’s swim to pet apparel, this collection brings Megan’s signature confidence, inclusivity and bold style to more customers than ever, at the great value they expect from Walmart.”

Translation: this is not a one-off moment. This is a growing fashion force.

Yes, There Are Looks for Your Boo… and Your Dog

Because Megan understood the assignment and then added extra credit.

This collection now includes:

• Women’s swim
• Men’s swim (Including Big & Tall options up to a size 5XL on Megan’s site and 3X on Walmart’s site)
• Pet apparel

Which means your Hot Girl Summer (now, Hot Girl Universe) can now be coordinated across your entire household.

And honestly? That is the kind of playful, community-centered fashion energy we can get behind.

Designed by Megan (And It Shows)

Let’s be clear, this is not a celebrity stamp situation.

The Meg thee Stallion x Walmart collection is entirely designed by Megan Thee Stallion, and you can feel that in every piece.

Expect:

• Curve-celebrating cuts
• Bold colors and statement prints
• One-pieces that serve both support and drama
• Bikinis that are unapologetically confident

It is giving main character energy. Across sizes.

Why This Moment Matters (Especially Right Now)

After spending last week spotlighting the current landscape of plus size swim, this drop feels especially timely.

Because it checks the boxes we keep asking for:

• Extended sizing up to 5XL
• Fashion-forward, not watered-down designs
• Accessible pricing and distribution
• A brand voice that centers confidence and inclusion

This is what happens when inclusivity is not treated like an afterthought, but as a foundation.

So, Which Hot Girl Universe Pieces are going into your cart?

Megan Thee Stallion is not just delivering swimwear. She is building a world, expanding access, and making sure more people get to show up fully and confidently this summer.

From XS to 5XL. From poolside to pet looks. From pre-order carts to sold-out alerts.

Hot Girl Summer is not waiting.

And neither should you.
