What is the best style swimsuit for my body shape?
Large shoulders
Choose swimwear with large straps instead of halter tops. They will give great support and narrow your upper-body. Draw attention to your waist line and your hips with nice and delicate bottoms with buckles, embellishments or fun prints.
Breast enhancer
Push up bras, halter tops and one-pieces, and tops with underwires or inserts will enhance the breast area. You can also choose a swimsuit with prints on the top.
Tummy tamer
High waist bottoms, tankinis, one-pieces with side shirring, one-pieces with princess seams, two-pieces asymetrical tankinis, one-piece camisole, one-piece tanks with draping, tummy control panels, colorblocks, diagonal inserts, etc…
Waist minimizer
Choose a swimsuit that crosses over or that drapes in a way that flatters the waist. Or, choose a shape-flattering princess style. You can also draw attention away from your waist with a great print or bright colors on the top.
Hip minimizer
Swimdresses, sarongs, skirts, camisole sarongs, trikinis, swimkinis, skirtkinis, skirts, crinkle pareos, joggers, and asymmetrical tankinis will narrow your hips. You can also choose from a large selection of coverage 3 swimsuits for full coverage. Darker colors will maximize the impact; you can also go for a bright colour above and a darker one below to draw attention away from your hips
Thigh minimizer
To draw attention away from your thighs, wear a swimsuit with bright colors or prints on the top and darker colors on the bottom. You can also choose from a great selection of skirtkinis, camisole sarongs, swimdresses and pareos.
If you have a large bust (C,D,DD)
Look for larger straps, racing backs or swim bras for more support
Post-mastectomy
One-piece high-necks, one-piece sarongs, two-piece tankinis or one-pieces with princess seams, available in sizes 8-16 or 10-18 . You should look for pockets for prostheses, hard cups, and more coverage at the arm-hole as well as higher necklines. Some styles are also offered in D-Cup sizes
If you have a long torso
If you are tall or have a long torso, we propose a great selection of styles adapted to your needs, like small-cut tankinis and one-piece suits. You can also choose to wear swimwear one size larger than usual.
