Ladies, whether you want to show off the hard work you put in at the gym, or cover up last week’s ice cream binge, we have the best bathing suits for every body type. We will share some tips for finding the perfect suit so you can look your best from spring break to August.
If you’re short…
- Avoid bottoms that cut your leg line off at a weird point like boy-shorts often do. Instead, opt for a high cut or shredded style that makes your legs look like they start higher up on your body.
- One pieces in a solid color create a single line for the eye to follow, which can make your look taller.
Our Pick: H&M
If you are petite on top…
- Choose tops with lots of visual interest such as fringe, ruffles, or gathers. Prints and patterns can also create the illusion of a bigger chest.
- If you are feeling confident about this area of your body, choose a bandeau style! Not many women get to indulge in this look, so take pride in the fact that it works on you.
Our Pick: Target $14.99-19.99
If you are plus size…
- Look for ruching on the sides to show off your waist and streamline your look.
- Black can minimize problem areas, while brights and lights will highlight.
Our Pick: Becca Etc. $88
If you are straight up and down…
- Bottoms with side ties add volume to your hips, while ruffles, zippers, and other added details can widen you at the bust.
- Cutouts can be hard for other shapes to pull off, but you can rock it!
Our Pick:
Venus Top $36
Venus Bottoms $29
If you are busty…
- Invest in tops with underwire and support so you can feel confident that you aren’t overflowing.
- Halter tops tend to be more supportive than spaghetti straps and are less likely to break.
Our Pick: Elite $124
If you are pear shaped…
- Bottoms that tie at the sides allow you to adjust them to accommodate your hips and thighs.
- Tops with thicker straps and visual interest balance your bottom half out.
Our Pick: Target $14.99-19.99
We all want to look our best at the beach or by the pool, but always remember to own your shape no matter what it looks like, and the best thing you can wear is a smile!
