Many plus-size women dread the summer season because they lack confidence in their bodies or have difficulty finding swimwear that fits well and flatters their curves. That is no reason not to enjoy the sunny days, though!
Embracing Your Body Shape and Finding the Perfect Plus-Size Swimwear
Well-fitting and fashionable swimsuits are now more readily available than ever, and every lady, no matter her size, can enjoy the beach or pool with confidence. A lovely swimsuit that will enhance your curves does not have to cost you a lot.
Don't Be a Square: Find Your Silhouette
Do not feel self-conscious about wearing swimwear; summer is about having fun and unwinding, so why waste time feeling miserable? Whether you're spending your summer on a Thai beach or in a small town in Canada, you can find swimwear that fits your body type and makes you feel amazing for a reasonable price. Here are some basic guidelines to help you choose the best swimsuit:
- For pear-shaped ladies, who carry most of their weight in hips and thighs, swimsuits featuring frills or draping around the bust area can help balance proportions. Emphasize the upper part of your body to create a more symmetrical look.
- Choosing bikinis and tankinis is a great idea if you're more of a rectangle. A front-tied swimsuit will give the appearance of a larger bust and frills or ties on the sides of the bottom part will create the illusion of wider hips. High-cut bottoms will elongate your legs and make you appear tall and sleek.
- The apple type, characterized by a rounder midsection, can benefit from choosing high-waisted swim attire. Low necklines and big, wide straps also aid in balancing out the silhouette. Halter-top bikinis are also a good choice, as they draw more attention to the shoulder area.
- If you're a natural hourglass with a well-defined waist, you can accentuate your curves by opting for swimsuits with cut-outs or wrap-around styles. Designs with ruching, frills, or gathering on the sides will also flatter your natural shape.
Every body is unique, and no two women are identical. Fortunately, swimsuit brands offer hundreds of designs, patterns, and colours to buy and satisfy the needs of even the pickiest customers. Whatever your shape or size, you can be sure you will find something perfect for your summer wardrobe. Living in an area with no shop selling plus-size swimsuits? Go online; the Internet is full of retailers offering beautiful, carefully designed styles you can order anytime.
Should a Plus-Size Woman Wear a Two-Piece Swimsuit?
There is only one type of woman who should wear a two-piece swimsuit, and that is every woman who wants to wear one. There are no limits: summer fun is for everyone, regardless of their weight, height, age, or any other factor. Don't let anyone tell you that you can't wear a two-piece because of your size.
Fuss-free style comes in all shapes, and whether it's a one-piece or a bikini is only a matter of personal preference. The variety of styles available means you can choose what you want to accentuate or hide based on your comfort and confidence.
The most critical factor in selecting swimwear is whether you feel comfortable. Be it a monokini, tankini or a two-piece set - you can say no to restrictions and find the perfect style for your body. Get ready to own the beach!
