Part 1



Buying swimwear online or in-store can be a hassle. You see one you love, go to try it/buy it and it just doesn’t suit your body and it can leave you feeling a tad insecure or down. Having the confidence within yourself to embrace your body is one of the first steps to self-love. VALUME is here to give you some tips on what to buy based on your body type to make your experience more pleasant and easy!



The Bigger Bust Baddie

To my fellow busty ladies, I know the struggle of trying to squeeze your boobs into a bikini and feeling like one wave crashing into you will reveal your nips to the world! Let me tell you right now string bikinis are not your friends! For women with a big bust, support is a number 1 priority to keep them girls in place. Go for a thicker strap and even one cup size up; the last thing you want is a bikini that makes your boobs bulge over the cup line, this simply isn’t a flattering look. Coverage is key to making your big bust look seductive and sexy yet supported and controlled.






The Curvaceous Charm

For the beautiful ladies with more to love, the key is to be bold and confident! Search for swimwear that compliments your curve. I recommend high waisted bottoms to snatch and conceal your hips. When buying high-waisted bottoms ensure that the brim of the garment is above your bellybutton to eliminate muffin tops. If you prefer one piece swimwear to two pieces find a piece that snatches your body. They key to this is generally finding one a size up, this stops the possibility of it digging in at the bottom of your hips or back creating unwanted bumps and lumps.





Small Busts Beauties

For the perkier ladies with a smaller bust it can be a bit of a mission to find a bikini that compliments your bust and small frame equally. It is best to go for something more out there, bold patterns, ruffles, or frills. This adds dimension and volume to your body’s assets. Flaunt what you have you’re a gorgeous masterpiece!





The Hourglass Hotties

These stunning ladies pretty much rock every bikini out… Jealous! Your aim when buying swim wear should be something you feel most comfortable in. However, to flaunt your body shape you want something that will show off your figure while supporting your assets. A low or thin cut bikini bottom with reveal your hourglass torso. Add a thick strap bikini top (underwired will give you more support) to bring the look together.
