Choosing A Swimsuits that Flatter You

Beautiful You

To look your best at the beach or pool, play around with styles and patterns that will maximize your assets! You can avoid the swimwear that's not going to do a thing for you -- and focus on the swimsuits that best fit your shape. Look for beachwear that is comfortable and won't fall off while you're swimming. After it also needs to serve a purpose.

Tips to Look Slimmer

Dress monochromatic and choose dark colors such as black and navy blue. Spandex adds extra stretch needed for slack and will make you appear thinner. Select from mix & match coordinated tops and bottoms to ensure you buy the proper size.

Generally, swimwear runs small, so you'll probably need to buy a size or two larger. What's important is that you find a suit that conveys your style, confidence and personality.

 

Large Bust

For large breasts, get adequate support for full-coverage. Choose a halter or molded underwire top to ensure that you won't hang out in all the wrong places. Racerback style straps and a wide band underneath the bust line provide extra security for those who are over-endowed.

Prominent Butt

If your butt is too big for your liking, there are many alternatives available. Not only are they stylish, sporty boy-cut bottoms will cover your bum while adding comfort. Skirted bikini bottoms are a sexy option to skimpy bikini briefs, and they're always hot in beach fashions. Consider selecting a top that is classy and draws the eye upwards and away from your butt. Thin, diagonal stripes are hot this season and very convenient for creating illusions. Keep in mind that horizontal stripes are not so appealing for a larger body type and vertical stripes can accentuate unwanted bulges.

  

Curvy Bodies

For an hourglass figure, consider a tankini and hipster bottoms. Wide straps ensure you're supported on top while a boyish cut covers areas you'd rather not show. Play up your finest curves with a one-piece cutout that's sure to be an eyecatcher.

Large Stomach

Minimize a bulging belly with a one-piece suit in a dark color or splashy pattern. If your heart is set on a two piece, consider finding a top that falls over your bikini bottoms. It will hide your tummy and elongate your torso. Swimsuits that gather at the waist are instant stomach slimmer’s, while adding a trendy touch to your overall look.
