Most ladies go through one excruciating process as the summer months approach or at the onset of the season searching for that perfect bathing suit.
Fashion periodicals may even complicate rather than help the process by featuring women with impressive body shapes, who would still look good, even in last year’s swimsuit. Although you may still have to try on all types of bikinis to find that absolutely perfect one, you may follow one simple rule to shorten your stay inside annoying changing rooms: Hide your faults and exhibit your assets. If you succeed in doing this, get ready to turn some heads at the pool.
Broad shoulders – Avoid tube tops as this will only emphasize your wide shoulders. Instead go for a swimsuit that has thick straps, wider necklines and are of darker shades. You can also wear a bottom which has a louder color and pattern to draw attention to that area.
Under sized busts – Try push-up, padded tops if you want to make your bust look bigger and your cleavage more enhanced. You’re also lucky to be able to wear tiny triangle tops that can provide the necessary lift and support to small busts. Not to mention that it’s really sexy. Also go for halter tops as these draw attention towards the arms and shoulders rather than the bust area. As for prints, horizontal stripes make the bust fuller.
Long body – Vertical stripes give the impression of a long torso so steer clear of this. Go instead for horizontal stripes and hoops with strong bright colors. Boy shorts are perfect, especially if you have a flat tummy and you’re concealing cellulite and stretch marks on upper thighs. You may also opt for skirt-style bathing suits so as to cover a greater part of your legs. High legs and low necklines give the impression of a shorter body length.
Little legs – Legs appear much longer with a swimsuit that is cut high on the thigh. You attain the same effect with scoop briefs. Boy shorts are a no-no as they will be unflattering to you by highlighting your short legs. You can also draw attention away from your lower torso by putting emphasis to your top. This can be done by wearing a printed top with a plain bottom.
Skinny – Horizontal stripes can give you a fuller body shape. Also go for bright (yet light) colors.
