Swimwear Choices for Small Busts

Posted by EFS on March 20, 2010

If you’ve been blessed with a small bust then you should choose between triangle bikinis and halter tops. These styles would best complement your body and highlight the positives of your body shape. The flattering halter top draws the eye to your bust area and adds the illusion of width , while the plunging front highlights your cleavage, subtly enhancing it.  Halter tops generally tie around the neck thus allowing you to adjust the lift for a perfect fit.  The triangle tops, especially the sliding triangle allow for different looks. You can wear a sliding triangle gathered toward the center or further apart to create the illusion of  bust width. Many triangle bikinis come with removable pads which may come in handy when you want to visually increase the size of your bust.  There are also non-sliding triangle, or padded triangle styles that have the cups preformed. The cups of these swimsuits are made of light foam and they are already pre-shaped. You may find this style handy as it creates an illusion of bigger bust size.

If you want to enhance your bust further, you may want to choose swimsuits with horizontal stripes on the top as they make your bust look fuller, or swimsuits with attention grabbing trims or central accessories which will draw attention to your bust.

Wearing a darker color on the bottom half of your swimwear can also make your small bust seem bigger, or if you are after a real boost, go for underwire swimsuits or push-up bikini tops. The recent swimwear trends have unveiled monokinis that are lighter on the top and darker on the bottom. These trendy monokinis are a great choice for women with smaller busts who want to create the illusion of  a fuller bust. Plus the monokinis are perfect to hide the “problem” areas around your tummy.
