Choosing a Swimsuit and Bikini for Your Body Type

The right swimsuit doesn't change your body — it highlights what is already beautiful. In this guide, we explain which cuts work well for each body type and why; the final decision is still yours.

Hourglass

If your waist-to-hip ratio is well defined, all you need to do is keep the balance. Underwired bikinis and belted swimsuits emphasise the waistline. Our underwired shell bikinis carry this silhouette especially well.

Pear (Fuller Lower Body)

Styles that draw the eye upwards work best: strapless and bandeau tops, shoulder details, and a printed top with a plain bottom. Adjustable tie-side bottoms give a perfect fit on the hips.

Apple (Fuller Midsection)

Ruched swimsuits and deep V-neck cuts lengthen the torso and have a smoothing effect on the tummy area. For those who want more coverage, zip-front and bustier swimsuits offer both confidence and elegance.

Athletic / Straight

To create the impression of curves, flounce, ruffle and ring hardware details are ideal. Triangle bikinis and bralette styles with an under-bust cut draw a soft silhouette.

Tall / Petite

For taller figures, high-waisted bottoms and maxi pareos balance proportions; for petite figures, a high-cut leg and V-neck make the legs look longer. For cover-ups, take a look at the kimono collection.

The Golden Rule

How you feel comes before any trend. Choose the styles that feel most like you, and check each product's fit notes before you order. If you're unsure about sizing, our size guide will point you in the right direction.
