A simple guide to choose the swimwear, swimsuit and the bikini that best siuts to your body

To appear sexy and beautiful in a bikini is not impossible: all you need is the right style. First identify your body type and pick styles that are best suited to your silhouette, highlighting your strengths and hiding your weaknesses.



PEAR-shape: if this is your body, you carry more weight in the hips, thighs and legs. Draw attention above the waist. Look for a swimsuit with a lower neckline. Bright colors on the top of the swimsuit will do the trick.

APPLE-shape: you have a larger upper-body and fuller breasts. Go for halter-top style swimsuit. Feel free to combine printed tops with solid bottoms. Also make sure the swimsuit provides added breast support.

Carrot shape: are you slim and not as curvy? Choose a style that enhances your hips and chest. The ideal is a swimsuit with ruches, laces and accessories that add movement and volume to your piece.

HOURGLASS-shape: you have a curvy upper and lower body. Look for swimsuits with adjustable straps and halters. One-piece bathing suits work well also.
