INVERTED TRIANGLE

For ladies with a bigger bust

• Definitely go for the integrated

bra top, making sure the bust is well

supported, giving you shape and

confidence around the pool

• Fit is important - make sure the cups

fit properly, avoiding the four boob

effect, therefore go for a balconett

not plunge style top

• Halter neck styles are good, as long

as straps are wide enough to support

the bust weight comfortably

• A solid block colour on the top

diverts attention, but patterns are fine

if it fits well

• String bikini bottoms can be

flattering, but keep strings below the

waistline

DON’T

• Go for ruffles, frills, stringy styles or

big patterns on your top.

TRIANGLE

For narrow shouldered figures

• A two piece bikini is likely to work

better for you than a one piece

swimsuit

• Look for bikini tops that are padded

or enhance cleavage to balance out

your shape

• Lighter patterned tops with darker

or block coloured bottoms will shift

attention from your bottom

• Tops with wide set straps will help

disguise narrow shoulders

• Draw side bottoms will enable you

to modify the shape and size of the

garment to suit your shape

DON’T

• Wear vertical stripes on your

bottom half

• Wear short or super high cut leg

style bikini bottoms.

RECTANGLE

The straight up and down body

• For upper portion, choose halter

tops in lighter shades or with fun

ruffles.

• To curve your waist, contrast the top

piece with the bottom.

• Look for prints, ruffles and other

cute details that add curves.

• If choosing a one piece, look for lots

of pattern or detail around the waist

area

DON’T

• Choose a one piece swimsuit in a

block colour
