Swimwear for the Inverted Triangle Shaped Woman
Ladies, if you have a large chest, wide shoulders, and a smaller bottom, chances are that you have an inverted triangle shape. When bikini shopping for this shape, avoid bandeau tops; this top won’t provide enough bust support. Instead go for a halter-top that has a strong underwire and thick straps in order to keep everything in place. When it comes to bottoms, buy one that has ruffles to add curves on bottom. This will balance out your shape. And like the pear-shaped woman, go for bikinis that are sold separately; you’ll need a smaller bottom and a bigger top.

Swimwear for Round Shaped Women
Round shaped women have narrow shoulders, thin legs, and carry most of their weight on their stomach. One piece swimwear is gaining popularity, yet it’s a classic, and it’s a great way to feel comfortable in a swimsuit if you struggle with your tummy. Some people allege that classic-cut one pieces, like the one pictured below, is flattering on all body types. When choosing colors, black is slimming and thus your best friend.

Swimsuit for the Rectangle-Shaped Woman
Women with a straight figure have the challenge of creating a curvier look. Go for swimsuits that have a padded top to create the appearance of having a bustier top section. And look for bold patterns! Patterns such as floral or zebra print will force the eyes to curve as they follow the pattern, adding curves to your body. Having a striped bathing suit (with horizontal stripes) will add the appearance of curves, as well. And overall, if you have a rectangular shape, you really can’t go wrong with a bathing that has ruffles. The ruffles will add volume to your top and bottom area, and voila! Instant curves.

Swimwear for Hourglass Shaped Woman
Women with an hourglass shape are said to have the perfect womanly form. Your upper half and lower half are in proportion to each other and you have a small waist. However, many hourglass shaped women fear that they may be too curvy. So to draw attention away from your assets, keep the focus on your legs by wearing a swimsuit bottom that is cut high on the sides. This will make your legs look longer and leaner. And like all women who are busty on top, it is crucial that you find a top that has a lot of support.
