Look Great on the Beach
How to Pick a Perfect Swimsuit
Looking Fantastic
Unless you have a perfect body and look good in anything, a little thought has to go into picking a perfect swimsuit. Its fairly simple though, the basic theory is to choose a swimsuit that draws the eye away from any problem areas while drawing the eye to your sexy assets. Comfort is the other major consideration.

If you want to conceal excess weight at the waist
The tankini is a two piece swimsuit with a long body often featuring loose draping material perfect for concealing any bulges in the belly area. The tankini tends to have close fitting brief style bottoms allowing you to show off your bum and thighs. A number of styles are available for the upper torso to either conceal or reveal your assets there.
An alternative to simply hiding the belly with loose draping material is to select a swimsuit with tighter material which will pull in the waist and hide bulges. Some swimsuits have a tummy control mesh lining that circles the midriff area for a slimmer appearance.
A swimsuit with a shirring or gathers at one side will really draw attention away from any weight around your waist as well as give you a fantastic air of glamour.Combine it all together with a swimsuit with control fabric and a shirring/gathers and you really have an attractive swimsuit that will slim your body both by pulling in the waist, controlling bulges and by de-emphasising the area.

De-emphasise waist, bottom and thighs
The skirtini is similar to the tankini but has a skirted bottom with briefs underneath. Very flattering if you want to conceal a bit of weight in the waist, bottom and thigh areas.
The shortini has the same benefits as the skirtini but is becoming very popular recently because many of us find it more comfortable with a looser fitting short style bottom, but still retains a very stylish and fashionable look. Truly a swimsuit that flatters the figure, is great to look at and is comfortable!
-
Fuller figure all over
The shortini is again a good choice, or a full piece swimsuit low cut at the hips with a skirt.
-
Pear figures
The most flattering swimsuit for a pear figure will be low cut at the bottom with a flounce skirt. The choice of top is not as important and could be a bikini top or a longer top.
-
Big up top, little on the bottom
Choose a full piece or a tankini that is high cut in the hips allowing you to show off your great bottom, thighs and legs.
Comfort - Its all important
- Looking amazing is all very well and good but if you can only bear wearing the thing for five minutes its not really worthwhile. Fortunately a swimsuit that looks great normally is also one that fits really well. Here are some general tips to follow.
- You may well require a different size in swimsuits and bikinis from your normal dress size. You may need to go up one, two or even three sizes depending on the design and cut of the swim wear. It is best to seek advise from the vendor or the manufacturer.
- If ordering online you might want to order in more than one size and send the others back. The best online swim wear. stores offer free returns of unwanted items.
- If you are big busted some swimsuits are sized specially to fit you based on cup sizes. Many swimsuits have features such as under wiring in the bust area. A wider neck strap such as a halter-neck style will offer more support.
Accessorise!
