Small Bust / Bottom Heavy
- Bikini tops with prints or embellishments and darker bottoms downplay the hips and rear.
- Padded halters or push-up underwire styles give a boost to your bust.
- One-piece boatnecks and racerbacks create the illusion of broader shoulders.
- A high-cut bottom lengthens legs and has a slimming effect.
- Strapless styles create a horizontal line and balance the figure.
- Avoid bottoms with prints or ruffles that draw unwanted attention to the hip area.
- Halter styles with underwire or midriff-band offer lift and support to the bust area.
- A suit with wide straps provides more support and is more comfortable.
- A dark, solid bikini top and a lighter or printed bottom draws attention away from the upper torso.
- Embellishments below the chest (e.g. ruffles, shirring) help deemphasize the bust area.
- Avoid strapless bandeaus and triangle bikini tops, which don't offer the support you need.
- One-piece suits with cut-out designs add sexy curves.
- Push-up bikini tops that come with pads or underwire make the most of a petite cleavage.
- Tiny string bikinis look great on small-chested bodies, but make sure they're tied securely and don't gape.
- Bikini tops with embellishments (smocking, ruffles) and horizontal stripes along the neckline visually add width on top.
- A belted bottom produces curves and creates the look of a defined waist.
- Avoid vertical stripes, which will only make your figure look straighter.
- Tankinis and one-pieces with a high Lycra content offer more tummy control -- one with 10 to 15 percent Lycra is a good bet.
- High-waist bottoms are more forgiving on a less-than-toned midsection.
- One-piece suits with ruches or gathers along the waist work wonders at disguising tummy bulges.
- Diagonal lines or designs and chevron patterns visually slim the waist.
- Avoid horizontal stripes that add width to the waistline and too-tight bottoms, which produce the dreaded muffin top.
- One-piece suits with a plunging neckline create a continual long silhouette and have a torso-lengthening effect.
- Vertical stripes and patterns visually lengthen the body.
- Bikinis with bottoms that sit low on the hips add length to a short torso.
- Embellished or printed tops with solid bottoms draw the eye up and create a longer look.
- Avoid suits with horizontal-stripe designs on the waist area and high-cut bikini bottoms.
- Tankinis with high-cut bottoms create the illusion of a shorter torso and longer legs.
- Suits with horizontal stripes and patterns across the waist makes a long torso looks more proportionate.
- Cutout designs visually break up the torso area.
- Avoid high-neckline one-pieces that make the torso look longer and styles with vertical stripes.
