Despite the fact the shops have rid their shelves of all swimwear, bar the bargain bin cast offs, many of us are still in need of our summer cossie. So with the shops having moved on to autumn already, it has left us one option…online shopping. While this is normally fine for the obligatory skinny jeans and tees, with swimwear it can be tricky. Our bodies are all different shapes and sizes underneath our clothes, and there are parts we want to flaunt and parts we most definitely want to hide! So when it comes to swimwear it isn’t as easy to find the perfect fit. So whether your pear-shape, hourglass, apple or whatever else they are categorising our bodies as these days, we have put together the ultimate online guide to choosing the styles that compliment your shapes, so you aren’t left with a pile of returns and no cossie come your holiday.
Small Chest
Finding swimwear that flatters your bust is always a challenge despite your cup size. But the best bet for a girl with a chest on the smaller side is to opt for a top with embellishments or detail. Think ruffles, ruching and padding…the extra fabric will create the illusion of a larger chest.
Busty
Busty girls listen up, bathing suit tops that come in size S, M and L are not your friend! Instead go for a style that comes in actual cup sizes. Underwire will also be a bonus as it will offer you the support in all the right places. Gone are the days when big busted women had to choose frumpy swimwear.
Little Booty
If your buns are on the flatter side, then you might wish to make your booty look a little fuller. Again frills and ruching are your friends, but another trick is opting for bottoms in bright colours that show a little cheek. Steer clear of full-coverage bottoms ladies.
Big Booty
If you’ve got ample assets, then bikini bottoms that feature string ties can often be a bit too revealing and also unsupportive. Try to look for bottoms with solid side panels to avoid the full moon situation at the beach. Couple with a printed top to help add balance to your body’s shape.
Muffin Top
If hiding a tummy is what you are worried about, then gal this is your year! 2016 is all about the one piece – everyone from Kim K to Rhianna are sporting them and let me tell you they are hot! The style of the moment is the high cut Baywatch look of the 80’s, but you wont have to look far to find a sexy swimsuit that will flatter your shape and up your confidence.
