Body Type: Pear Shape
If you have a small chest and ample derriere (pear shape) find a suit that draws the eyes up. A plunging neckline should do the trick—especially when paired with a delicate body chain.
Body Type: Hourglass
If you have curves, accentuate your waistline to play up your feminine figure. Suits with a peplum or ruched detailing are both surprisingly flattering, hugging your curves in all the right places.
Body Type: Big Bust
If you're well endowed, underwire is your best friend when it comes to swimwear. Find a style that also has adjustable shoulder straps so you have the necessary support to avoid a poolside wardrobe malfunction.
Body Type: Small Bust
A halter style allows you to control the fit of the top, which is the primary dilemma if you have a flat chest. Simply pull the ties until the fabric is taut and secure with a tight bow.
Body Type: Athletic
If you've got it, flaunt it! Monokinis and one-pieces with strategic cutouts are an excellent way to show off your toned abs while catching some rays.
