Shopping for bathing suits used to be far simpler, but perhaps not so exciting. Once upon a time, you needed to choose between a two piece and a one piece swimsuit. Two piece suits came in bikini style, with a halter or a bandeau top, and you could choose a traditional one piece suit or one with a racing style back. This has changed as the market comes alive each season with brand new trends in designer swimwear.
Variations In Two Piece Bathing Suits
Of course, traditional bikinis are still popular on the beach and at the pool. However, designers have learned over the years that not all women are comfortable in tiny revealing bathing suits. They have, as a result, come up with some options. The tankini, for example, allows any woman to take advantage of the fun and convenience of a two-piece suit but without revealing her mid-section. The tank top style top reaches all the way to the top of the bottoms.
Women who are seeking ways to distract eyes away from their hips or thighs can wear a two piece swim suit and feel great about it. There are designer swimwear options that include bottoms that are actually board shorts. They still cling like a traditional bathing suit, but they come up higher on the belly and extend to mid thigh like a pair of shorts. This creates a balance for women with pear-shaped figures.
One Piece Bathing Suits With Character And Style
If you can only envision a maillot that looks like a single boxy piece, you have not been shopping lately. One-piece bathing suits come in a variety of styles, including some very sexy new trends with cut outs on the sides, in the back, or in the center. These are exotic looking suits that rival any bikini for sexiness and sensuality.
If, on the other hand, you are seeking a one-piece suit that covers the middle but provides added support for the bust, you will want to consider a suit that incorporates a bandeau top. This top will provide support where it is needed and separate your torso from your breasts to break up the look. You can get a similar effect when you choose to wear bathing suits that are belted. You may prefer a belt that matches the suit or one in a contrasting color for a more eye-popping look.
