Zwaggle5 Tips for Choosing the Perfect Swimsuit
When you’re looking forward to the summer months or a trip to the tropics, part of the fun is shopping for some new swimsuits. Perhaps more than any other type of clothing, you need to be sure that they’re flattering. Here are 5 tips to help you choose the perfect swimsuit this year.
1. View all angles
Fit is particularly important for a swimsuit, so you should look at the fit from all angles. If the store has a three-way mirror make sure it not only looks great from the front but also from the side and behind.
2. Get a perfect fit
A great fit is essential for your swimsuit to look flattering, and it’s also important for comfort. Finding the perfect fit can be a challenge because you’re only trying on swimsuits when they’re dry even though they’re designed to be worn in the water. Especially for large-busted women, it’s important to have adjustable straps when the top gets wet in order to prevent sagging or other wardrobe malfunctions.
3. Style elements
Even with small two-piece swimsuits, details and form can make a difference in how people perceive your body proportion. If you want to flatter a smaller bust, you could choose a top that has ruffles or other style details to create a sense of volume. If you want to create a narrower look in the waist, a one-piece with detailing on the sides can create a more tapered waist. For women who want some coverage for their hips and thighs, there are skirted suits that hide imperfections in those areas.
4. Think about versatility
You’re likely to do more in your swimsuit than lying out on the sand. You might have some adventures, especially if you’re vacationing in a place you’ve never been. Make sure the suit not only looks great when wet or dry, but it also stays on securely when you’re playing volleyball or going water skiing.
5. Color and cut
There are a variety of theories about how certain types of skin tones look good with certain colors. The only way to be sure is to try a lot of colors to see which flatters you best. A basic black might be more flattering than a bright yellow or hot pink. The cut of a suit makes a big difference for your overall figure. To make your legs look longer, a high-cut bottom can do wonders. If you have a small butt, a Brazilian-style bottom will enhance its shape.
When you pick the right swimsuit, you’ll know. It should seem like it was made just for you. When you leave the store with the perfect suit, you’ll have even more to be excited about for the upcoming warm weather and fun in the sun.
