Summer is fast approaching! It's the best time to choose your swimsuit! The trendiest styles this season are embellished with frills, lace and bold patterns. What other trends will dominate beach fashion? How to select the right model according to your body type?

How to choose a swimsuit for your figure?

A well-fitted swimsuit is the foundation of stylish beachwear. It will help to highlight our assets and hide imperfections. It will also make every woman feel exceptionally beautiful and confident, regardless of whether she has a problem with nudity or if it is entirely natural for her.

– A properly chosen swimsuit can work miracles with any silhouette. To achieve this, we first need to define the type of our figure. In the basic division, we distinguish between an hourglass, pear, and apple - it's worth remembering that each of them has its own rules. When choosing a swimsuit, we focus on quality - only those made of the highest quality materials will fit properly and beautifully model our figure – advises Karolina Pietrasik-Książek, an expert from the online store Vitkac.com.

Hourglass figure swimsuit

People with this type of figure have the same width of hips and shoulders and a very slim waist with a pronounced indentation. The "hourglass" will be suitable for the largest number of swimsuits, especially two-piece bikinis (which need to be matched to the size of the bust) and one-piece swimsuits with significant cuts at the waist. They will beautifully highlight and model a slim figure. There is no need to limit yourself with this type of figure, you can opt for very fashionable floral patterns, lace, sailor accents or other embellishments this season.

Swimsuit for a pear-shaped figure

This is a type of silhouette characterized by narrow shoulders, small bust, and wide hips. Swimsuits that emphasize the upper body parts and model the lower ones, i.e., patterned top and monochrome high-waisted bottoms, work great here. The top of the swimsuit can also contain embellishments and very fashionable frills this season, which will additionally emphasize the bust and divert attention from the hips.

Female figure type apple – appropriate swimsuit

The apple is one of the most common female figures. It is extremely feminine because all curvatures are located around the torso. For the apple figure type, the best will be a one-piece swimsuit, without patterns or other additions. A set in the form of a longer top and bottoms, also smooth, will also work. In this case, dark colors will be the most optimal, which will help hide any imperfections.

Trends in the upcoming season – stay up to date!

— The hits of this season are tropical and floral patterns: both non-trivial and very feminine. Such motifs ruled on last year's runways of top fashion houses, such as Versace, Zimmermann, or Stella McCartney. On frills, however, the brand Marysia bet decidedly, making it the main decoration of their swimsuits this season. One-piece suits in sporty style have also returned, which have found their place in the offer of Gucci and Dsquared2 – adds the expert.

This season, it's worth to be tempted by a swimsuit with lace elements - as well know fashion houses Zimmermann or Givenchy. If, however, you dream of a sailor-style swimsuit, be inspired by beautiful proposals from Diane von Furstenberg, EA7 Emporio Armani, and Dsquared2.
