Put the winter coats away… it’s swimsuit season! Love the warm weather, but struggle with finding the perfect swimsuit for you? We’re breaking down swimsuits by body type to help you find the best fit for your figure.
Warning: Our love of the stylish one-piece is SO real!
Check out a few of our favorite swimsuits below, grab a fun poolside floatie, and get ready to sunbathe in style!
Straight Figure
Want to add a bit more curve? Opt for padding and cup separation to create fullness. Also, deep necklines and fun cut-outs can be super chic and add a bit of oomph to your poolside look.
Tummy Control

Small Bust
Source: Society of ChicThe great thing about a small bust with swimwear is that you can seriously wear just about anything. The key here is to enhance (if you want) with embellishments, padding, or other fun details like ruffles and frills to create the illusion of fullness.
Large Bust
Source: @marianna_hewittNeed to get the “girls” in check? Think the same type of control you would with your regular bra. Thick (but still chic!) adjustable straps and underwire boning will ensure everything stays where it should. Even better? Several incredible brands are getting smart about creating bra-specific sizing for fuller cups.
Full Hips and Thighs
