Your body shape: This is considered the perfect body shape. Hips and shoulders are balanced with a defined waistline.

What to wear: You can wear any style of swimsuit! Try something that will show off your feminine curves. Having an hourglass shape also gives you the ability to try all sorts of cuttings and prints, so be bold and go wild! Our recommendation is also the bandeau style top, an extremely flattering piece best suited to the hourglass body type.

Your body shape: This body type has a wider waistline than shoulders, with wonderfully rounded hips and bottom. Women with this shape should try to draw people's attention away from the problematic areas like the upper thighs.

What to wear: One-piece boatneck, racerback and tummy-control swimsuits visibly create the illusion of broader shoulders for a more balanced figure. Wear a swimsuit that has graphics on the top and is plain on the bottom. Or try mini-skirted two piece suits that cover the problematic thigh area.

Chokers look great on this body type. You could also try on some short sarongs that hide your thighs and look sexy too.

Your body shape: This body shape has a fuller bust and a less-defined waistline, along with narrow shoulders and thighs.

What to wear: Choose a swimsuit that draws attention away from the midriff and tummy area. Halter tops or molded under wire cups are great for you as it is both sexy and comfortable. Try on bikini bottoms that have lots of colour and print. Suits with draping are great bust-minimizing choices. Dark solids also work wonders. Layered slim chains will give you an exotic feel but stay away from chokers and chains that are overly long and they add weight around places that don't need it.
