Buy Flattering Swimwear For Your Body Shape
What swimwear will suit me best? What is the best women's swimwear for small chests? Can I get away with wearing a string bikini? The answers to all these questions and more can be found in our quick guide to buying sexy women's swimwear online so you can look great on the beach or by the poolside this summer.
Looking For Swimwear For Small Breasts?
- Look for padded and gel filled tops, adjustable straps and push up features to help boost a small chest size.
- Avoid bandeaux tops as the elastic fit can squeeze and push in small breasts making them appear smaller.
- If you are shopping for a bikini then try a Brazilian bikini top as Brazilian women typically have smaller breasts and the styles are very exciting and highly fashionable.
- Horizontal stripes on a top give the illusion of a larger size.
Looking For Swimwear For Large Breasts
- Look for underwired support and swimwear with built in cups and either a halter neck or shoulder straps for support.
- Avoid anything which doesn't offer support. Bandeau tops can push up the breats making the top look loaded on tops like a buxom middle ages barmaid but offer little support.
- If you've got it, flaunt it - show off with a plunge top.
Need Swimwear To Hide Your Tummy
- One piece swimsuits with built in stomach flattening panels are an option if you need swimwear to hide your belly. Normal one piece swimwear covers the area with material but do little to hide your shape.
- A tankini offers tummy coverage without sacrificing on style and utility.
- Avoid horizontal stripes and any belts, ruffles etc. around the belly area which will only serve to draw attention to your belly area.
Big Hips and Thighs?
- Draw attention away from your lower half with darker colours on your bottom and brighter colours at the top. Ruffles and decoration on the upper portion of your swimwear also draw the attention upwards and away from the lower portion.
- A sarong or straight skirt will cover up thick thighs and help cover big hips.
- Avoid any kind of decoration around the hips area as belts, buckles and other accessories will only serve to add extra width. Also avoid skirted swimwear as this tends to stick out over the area making your hips look wider still.
Short Legs / Long Legs
- High cut briefs make your legs look longer whilst ruffled skirted swimwear and low cuts make them look shorter.
How To Lengthen A Short Torso
- Use vertical stripes to make a short body look taller.
