HOW DOES MY SWIMSUIT BECOME PART OF MY OUTFIT?
And which swimsuit suits my figure best?
Now that the sun is really eager to shine, we can't wait for the sunny weekends and holidays that are coming up. From sand between your toes to a delicious cocktail on the terrace of your favorite beach bar; on days like these, you don't have to worry about anything, and sometimes we just love that. Well, not worry about anything? Almost nothing then... Because you might not have much, but what you wear has to look good while creating that tan. And since there's a good chance that after a day of chilling on the beach, you'll move to a beach bar for dinner or maybe even better: go to the beach and only leave in the late hours dancing after a successful beach party, I'll tell you which swimsuit you can best enjoy this season and how this swimsuit can become part of your perfect beach look.
On the Miami catwalk, we spot three major trends for the upcoming season: low cuts, all-over prints, and bare hips. Aside from responding to trends, it's especially important to consider your figure when it comes to swimsuits.
Are you an hourglass? Then an asymmetrical model is perfect for you. It emphasizes your shoulders, creating the perfect proportion.

Do you have little waist, broad shoulders, hips, and a small belly? Then you are an inverted triangle. It's important to give your body more shape, especially at your waist. You can do this with the help of a shaping swimsuit or a waist belt.

Do you have a straight figure? Then it's good to create some extra volume. You can do this by playing with prints or choosing a swimsuit with playful cut-outs.
