Hourglass
If you are curvy overall, have hips and shoulders with similar widths, a full rear and thigh, and slim and shapely lower legs, you should look for swimsuits that will keep the eye busy or accentuate the waist. Look for allover prints, halters, & V-necks. Side details can highlight your curves.
Oval
If your bust, waist, and hips are of a similar size and you can consider your hips as square shaped, your bust as small, and your arms and legs as slim, stick to swimsuits with halters and detailed necklines to draw the eye upwards and look for tummy control lining. One pieces or swimdresses with princess seams and empire waistlines can help slim you down.
Triangle
If you have more prominent hips, thighs, and rear, and less prominent shoulders and bust with average to large legs, look for swimsuits with a print or light color top and solid, dark bottom. Swimdresses and tankinis with skirts work really well with this body type.
Inverted Triangle
If you have a full bust, waist, and upper back with less full hips, a flat rear, pronounced tummy and midriff, and slim arms and legs, swimsuits with an underwire bra or skirted bottoms will really help keep you balanced. A wide, square neck can narrow your shoulders.
Square
If you have more prominent hips, thighs, and rear, and less prominent shoulders and bust with average to large legs, look for swimsuits with a print or light color top and solid, dark bottom. Swimdresses and tankinis with skirts work really well with this body type.
