The
long, hot, sunny days are back, so it's time to
turn up the WOW! Factor with this season's hottest
swimsuits styles, ranging from wild tropical African
prints to sexy slashes, sporty stripes to classic
modern blacks and whites!
Looking one's best on the beach is not always the most ego-boosting experience
if the suit is wrong. Most designers, it seems, forget that 90 percent
of the world's females aren't itsy bitsy. But worry not, for this season's
swimwear collection caters to all heavenly bodies. In fact, this season
sees the launch of the largest-ever swimwear collection for each body
type. Designers have gone so far as to create suits that not only hide
tummies, but create curves and elongate legs and hide butts.
Slim Tummy: A well cut one-piece in a very bold
print helps camouflage bulges, whittling the middle to create
a smoother, more lean line. Or, if that's too much print, why
not try vertical stripes which elongate--a girl can't ever be
too tall!
Creating Curves: Feeling
like a surfboard? Fear not, playing
with patterns is the best way to
create the perfect illusion of
a more feminine curvy silhouette.
Why not try mixing horizontal stripes
that elongate with diagonal stripes
that widen. Cut outs, especially
on the back, are also great to
fill out one's figure and make
it appear less boyish. A scoop
neck and larger stripes on the
top of a halter style creates cleavage
while a demi-cup makes breasts
appear fuller!
Looking leaner: This
season's halter styles and plunging
neck lines are the perfect way
to not only elongate your torso
but also clinch it in. Subtle ruching
and pin-tuck details around the
tummy and breast are great camouflage
tools, too--especially on a backless
or strap suit, as this helps flaunt
your bony bits.
Hide Butt: With
sporty bottoms, flirty skirts and
wraps, today's full cover suits
are far from nun-like. An A-lined
swimsuit mini is a very chic way
to achieve this season's look.
For a more sassy type, why not
try the boy short bottoms with
a ban due top. And if its more
butt that you want, then try suits
with cargo-pocket details on the
rear--great shape creators!
