The Best Swimsuits for Your Shape


It can be challenging shopping for the perfect swimsuit. With so many styles, its hard to stay on trend and flatter your figure at the same time. It’s so tempting sometimes just to stick to a classic black suit, but this summer there are so many great printed pieces and vibrant styles that just can’t be missed! Check out my guide for the swimwear that’ll look amazing on your shape:

The Triangle Bikini

Bikini- H&M, $12.80 /  Bikini- Topshop, $36 / Bikini- H&M, $26

The classic triangle bikini flatters most shapes. Particularly for you gorgeous small-chested girls, this style can work wonders for adding definition! This is because the plunge shape gives the illusion of cleavage, and hides the lack of volume at the top.

For you stunning girls with a full chest, this style might not suit as there’s less support.

If you’re bottom heavy, choose a tie-side style like this vibrant yellow H&M bikini so you can adjust the size and prevent the straps from digging in.

The Bandeau Bikini

Bandeau bikinis

Bikini- H&M, $26 / Bikini- H&M, $26 / Bikini- Old Navy, $40

The bandeau bikini offers great support for you girls with a sexy larger chest and can give a great boost to create gorgeous curves.

If you’re flat chested, choose a style with shape and structure like this stunning lavender suit from H&M, and avoid bandeaus which go straight across as these can flatten an already flat chest.

The One-Piece

One piece

Side-tie Cutout one piece- alloy.com, $28 / Swimsuit Waka C- Mango, $45 / Bqueen Black one-piece bathing suit- bqueenshoes.com, $49

If you have a boyish shape, a one-piece suit can be a great alternative to a bikini. One-pieces that feature super-fashionable cut-out patterns can be great for giving the illusion of curves and draw attention to your stunning slim figure. A halter-neck one piece, like this eye-catching Mango print suit, features a dramatic plunge neck to draw attention to your gorgeous shoulders and neck.

The Underwired Bikini

Underwired bikinis
Bikini- H&M, $26 / Coral Stripe Bikini- Topshop, $56 / Polka-dot Bikini- J.Crew, $56
If you have an hour-glass figure, underwired push-up swimsuits will look amazing on your curves. They will enhance your chest and emphasise your best feature- your cleavage, while providing the support you need!
But don’t worry if you have a smaller chest, the push-up style will definitely boost it. Details like frills, polka-dots and stripes will give you curvier girls a great 1950s-style look, so emphasise your tiny waist and cleavage with bold styles!
