Some Swimwear Statistics
• Over 38% of women claimed that finding a
suitable swimsuit was their biggest pre-
holiday stress. The survey by
Weightwatchers found that women were
worried more about this than travel
arrangements, finances, and last minute
work issues! (*1)
• 89% of women felt at their most exposed in
public when wearing a swimsuit (*2) –
making choosing the right one incredibly
important for you to feel at your most
confident.

Choosing The Wrong Swimwear
Choosing a swimsuit that does not suit
your body shape can be unflattering.
What’s more, it can also be uncomfortable
if you choose the wrong size.
Wearing a bikini that is too big is prone to
slipping and mishaps can happen that will
leave you red faced!
But by wearing swimwear which is too
small, it can cause soreness and chaffing to
your skin.

Choosing The Right Swimwear
It is amazing how confident you can feel if
you are wearing the right swimsuit – one
that flatters you in all the right places.
The best swimwear will emphasise your
favourite body parts, and minimise those
parts you are less keen to flaunt.

Choosing The Right Swimwear
The first decision to make is which style of swimsuit you would like to purchase. It’s all about choosing one you will feel most comfortable in.
Bikini
Perfect for maximum sun exposure to top up your tan
Great for swimming laps and covering your tummy
Tankini Swimsuit
Ideal for fuller coverage and complimenting your curves

How To Define Your Body Shape
The female body is a beautiful thing, and there is a flattering style available for all body shapes and personal preferences. But first of all, how do you know what body shape you are?
![Page 7: The Simply Beach Guide To Choosing Flattering Swimwear](https://reader034.vdocument.in/reader034/viewer/2022042613/554c8eb4b4c905df3c8b5a8e/html5/thumbnails/7.jpg)
The Four Main Body Types
There are many different body shape names out there that it can get confusing, but it all comes down to the four main types which are all defined by proportion. So grab a tape measure, and check your measurements.
Straight – your bust and hips are basically the same size and the waist is smaller. Pear – The hips are larger than the bust, and the waist slopes outwards to the hips. Apple – The bust is large, and the hips are narrow. The waist is not very defined. Hourglass – The bust and hips are the same size and the waist is well defined. Let’s take a look at the best styles for your shape.

Straight
In order to give the illusion of a fuller bust, choose a bikini with ruffles, ties or padding.
Thinking of choosing a swimsuit? Opt for a style with cut outs to instantly add curves or a panelled design to add dimension to your waist.

Pear
String bikini bottoms have less fabric around the hips and make your legs look longer, steering attention away from your hips.
Tankinis can offer more coverage without clinging to your shape. Opt for a solid colour or vertical lines to create the illusion of a thinner silhouette.

Apple
To get the appearance of a smaller bust and to maximise coverage, opt for an underwire bandeau bikini top.
Add more definition to your waist with a flared tankini top.

Hourglass
Enhance your curves and support your bust with a thick strapped swim suit that has detailing to compliment your shape.
Show off your balanced proportions with a matching solid colour or pattern suit.

Tips For All Body Shapes
• Plus size swimsuits with ruched detailing can conceal and flatter a fuller figure
• High waisted briefs flatten your bottom and
waist whilst also providing tummy control
• Horizontal pleats and floral patterns will instantly add curves
• High hipped styles will make legs look
longer

Keeping Your Swimwear In Good Condition
• Wash as soon as possible after wear, otherwise bacteria such as oils and lotions can damage the material
• Always hand wash using a mild soap, as washing machines can damage the detailing as well as cause stretching
• Do not wring out or hang as it can damage the fibres which creates stretching and sagging. Instead, lay out on a towel and dry.
• Avoid letting it dry in direct sunlight, as this can cause colour fading
