This Year, Find The Perfect Swimsuit For Your Body

By  | 

Women are beginning to embrace their bodies, whatever the shape or size and it’s about time for the industry to start taking notice. For one, the media has – Sports Illustrated swimsuit model Robyn Lawley noted how rarifying it is to find curvy women represented in magazines or advertisement campaigns because of how stuck the fashion industry is on one body type. While a size two is what many believe will sell, it is not typical of many women’s natural figures. Nevertheless, the average woman struggles going from department store to department store trying to find something flattering – and this becomes that much more of a problem where intimate apparel and swimwear is concerned. However, there is a solution – looking for plus size swimwear online offers a woman more options at any time of the year. What’s more is that many online retailers will offer full refunds for unsatisfactory purchases – so little to risk but much to gain.


Are you a plus size woman looking for the right swimsuit? Many are conscientious about their chests. For a bustier woman, a string bikini might not be the ideal choice. Choose one that uses an underwire to keep the bust in place. If the stomach area is your concern, consider more coverage around the mid section like high-waisted bottoms, or a blouson top. When it comes to bottoms, solid colors and full coverage will give a slimming effect while skirt style bottoms help to hide the thighs. Pairing a solid bottom with a colourful top, or one that uses intricate patterns, will provide a unique look and draw the eye further away from any trouble areas. Off the shoulder tops draw the eye to the upper body, and away from the hips as well. Oprah.com showcases some trendy looks for plus size women and features the beautiful Maggie Brown, sporting a swimsuit that shows off some cleavage while concealing her thighs using a sarong. They also help singer and actress Jolie Walsh find a retro swimsuit that makes her bust look bigger and elongate her petite frame.
