When going swimwear shopping, it is important to understand the type of body shape you have in order pick the right swim wear.
The one chance you get to be half naked has to be done tastefully, RIGHT? The swimwear for a full hourglass Kim Kardashian type of body cannot be ideal for a rectangular Taylor Swift body type.
In order not to leave you confused, I am not going to be using the different body shapes as a guide to getting the right swimwear. Instead, I would be using normal body features used every day like small/full bust and broad shoulders. The types of body shape for every woman has been discussed HERE
Whether, you are fat or skinny, trying to conceal a fuller bust or create illusion of curves to a smaller body, with this article, you are going to learn what works best for you.
Got a Small butt?
Never opt for plain black bottoms because black naturally gives a slimming effect which would make your butt look smaller. Instead, opt for bottoms with bright colors and loud prints.
How about a Flat chest lol Small bust?
Obviously, the goal here is to create the illusion of a fuller bust. If you have to wear a bikini, make sure you purchase one with extra padding (plenty foam, LOL). Also, go for tops with plenty ruffles, fringe detail or embellishments.

Belly fat?
To conceal belly fat, opt for a one piece swimsuit or a bikini with high waisted bottoms in black.

Ooh, or a Huge bust?
If you are extremely top heavy, avoid bikinis smaller than your cup size and bikinis without under wire which would not give the right support you need. Instead, purchase swimwear with thick straps.
Gotta Straight or rectangular bodyshape?
Purchase swim wears which create an illusion of curves. Choose loud prints/ bright colors over plain ones and high waisted pants and tops with extra padding in different colors.
Large Butt?
Depending on the fullness of your behind, string bikinis may not always be your best friend. They may be too revealing. You need bikinis with enough fabric so you are not constantly tugging for more coverage.
Broad shoulders?
Swim wears that pull the eyes away from your shoulders are what you should go for. A solid colored suit with printed panels along the side creates the impression of an hour glass figure thus evening out a boxy upper body.
Medium hourglass shape?
If you have a medium hourglass figure i.e moderate boobs and butt with hourglass shape. You should consider yourself lucky because you really have nothing to bothered about. Almost every swim wear type works in your favour.
With the right swim wear, you can conceal or create illusions on your body. Did you find this helpful? Are there any body features I left out which you may want to know about? Let me know in the comment section below.x
