Big on top –tankinis are great for balancing the body. Underwired one pieces or bikinis will also give you support and a great shape.
Create curves – a patterned bikini will create the illusion of curves or a halter neck will enhance the bustline.
Full figure – the one-piece bandeau suit will slim and elongate a full figure and because it doesn't have straps it gives you that added glamour
Disguise tummies -fool the eyes with textured or patterned fabric.
Large hips – draw attention away from the hips upwards with styles that have pretty bust details or vertical stripes and dark colours slim your figure.
