Swimsuit Fit Guide for Girls

No doubt your swimsuit shopping experience will be adventurous this season. Today's designers cater to all preferences -- everything from studs and strings to cut-outs and cute details. The easy part is picking one to match your taste, but finding the perfect allover fit is much more tricky. The key to successful shopping is to know which body parts to accentuate or downplay, to understand the colors that work well for you, and to recall past styles that made you feel confident. With these factors in mind, swimming in a sea of swimsuits can be a fun experience.

Be Aware of the Bust

Decide if you want to boost your bust or downplay it. For a boost, look for molded cups, a deep V-neck and removable push-up padding. Fringe, gathered details and ruffles help camouflage a small bust. For coverage and concealment, look for a suit that features boning, adjustable straps, elastic banding under the bust, or a bustier style. Stay away from bright colors and added details such as bows, ruching, studs and fringe, which all draw attention to your upper half.

Buffering a Behind

Another consideration is of course the bottom. A high-cut one piece or a two piece with full-cut bottoms in solid colors are best for larger figures. Draw attention away from the hips and butt with a well-fit top that features details such as lace inlays, pattern, texture, and stylish hardware. For example, pair a patterned top with a solid bottom. For added coverage, select a long tankini and flirty skirt.

Stomach Considerations

Make the eye wander elsewhere to hide a tummy bulge. Wear a monokini cut with side ruching or hipster bottoms to draw attention to the legs instead. Horizontal and diagonal stripes can also help hide an unflattering stomach. The key is to find a style that fits right. If it is too small it will cut into your skin and accentuate trouble spots. If you want to lengthen your waist and hips, look for a low-rise bikini cut or princess seaming. For toned tummies and boyish figures, try a high-cut bikini in playful patterns and prints with embellishments to give your body definition.

Lengthen Those Legs

High-cut swimsuits on shorter frames lengthen the legs. Also, scoop-front bottoms or bottoms with thinner sides give the appearance of a longer leg. In addition, try a one piece with an hourglass fit, meaning the sides of the suit are solid and the middle is a print. (http://www.ehow.com/info_12335889_swimsuit-fit-guide-girls.html)
