Usually (standard) summer is usually associated with the sea, the sea with the beach, the beach, of course, with a bikini (bathing suit). Probably, no one will argue that the main element of a summer ladies' wardrobe is a swimsuit.

Each new season, you are headlong looking for those very few features that are characteristic of the fashion of the coming summer. It should be noted that the fashion for swimwear has not changed much over the past 40 years, because already in the 60s, separate swimwear led to the emergence of bikinis. After that, the bikini boom shook almost the entire civilized world. Despite the sanctimonious exclamations like: "Now only stripes are left from striped beach suits", the female part of the population (oh the great passion of ladies for innovations!) Took over this with great enthusiasm. Surely, even with more than the women of Central Asia when parting with a burqa.

Nowadays, bikini models have joined the ranks of swimwear with the addition of "tonga", ie. bikinis that allow you to almost completely bare the buttocks and cover only the corporate label. The trend towards an increase in the number of nudist beaches has led to a fashion for topless swimwear (bottom half of a bikini), but it is unlikely that we will take off the last triangle already this summer.

A good swimsuit should fit like a tan. To achieve an impeccable effect (after all, only this is acceptable), you need to critically examine your merits in the mirror (without being embarrassed by any shortcomings) and go in search of a suitable swimsuit model.

It is clear that bikinis are the luxury of perfect figures. And if your complexion is minimally close to the "standard", then a maximum of common sense and professional advice will help to solve most of the problems. First, you can consider the main types of swimwear and understand what swimsuit will fit for you.

The main types of swimwear:

more suitable for outdoor activities on the beach (playing volleyball) or for the pool. These models are also popular because closed swimsuits are the recommendation of doctors (it is better to leave the chest and abdomen area covered, since the bronze tan of the places where the vital organs for a woman are disintegrated is dangerous). Models of this type of swimwear can be purely sporty, that is, closed deep, for example, in the chest, upper back, neck, with a minimum of trim. Elegant, when simple in shape, a swimsuit, moderately revealing the neckline and thighs, is decorated with a completely unsportsmanlike flower or other romantic pattern. Or mixed - sporty and elegant, in the form of a moderately open model with ornaments characteristic of a sporty style - wide colored edging, geometric inserts, zippers. In addition to the usual polyamide, they often use "Supplex" and, of course, elastane, since a good fit is important for swimming. Colors in sports options are bright, saturated, edging and inserts are contrasting, often phosphorescent. Elegant models are often solid or with large, exquisite patterns, such as a delicate flower. Diversity is not welcome.

In general, they have become relevant again, tk. the open sexuality of the bikini is too frank, and the opposite sex likes to "finish painting" pictures known only in sketches. If it is possible to preserve at least some mystery (even if this is hardly applicable to a swimsuit), ladies try to disguise what at first glance deprives them of their secrets.

Corrective swimwear

Designed just for those who keep the secrets of their bodies with special vigilance. Such swimsuit will fit almost everyone. This type tightens, sometimes "taking away" 2 sizes; lifts if necessary; fixes. To put it more clearly, these models are ideal for ladies suffering from a complex "full" figure.

General recommendations when choosing such a swimsuit can be boiled down to a few standard tips:

Bikini is contraindicated if there is no desire to attract excessive attention.

Dark color.

The fabric is matte.

Moderate cut-outs at the thighs.

The cups are underwire.

Widely spaced straps.

Low cut.

It has already been written about above. These cute triangles are most often found in cheerful colors. Classic open models are offered by lingerie manufacturers. Such options are characterized by corsetted cups on bras, elegant deep cutouts on the thighs of the panties, visually lengthening the legs. However, this year, instead of the latter, deep shorts are often offered. Straps may or may not be available depending on the model.

It remains to add that there is a special type of models in which attention is paid to sophistication and originality. These swimsuits are designed for graceful young ladies, sometimes of a shocking character. They can be trimmed with rhinestones, drapery, precious stones and embroidery: in general, represent a whole work of art. Of course, not everyone can wear a leather swimsuit with a transparent mesh bottom from Gianfranco Ferre, but sometimes ladies still want something to stand out in the beach crowd.

Recently appeared, which, according to the creators, remain always fresh …

This year, all the same models are relevant as in recent years, only with some additions and innovations.

The top is in fashion in the form of a wide ribbon that wraps around the chest. Colors - cheerful "in a flower" (large and small). The white and black range is also characteristic. Sometimes you can take liberties and seem original by buying two swimsuits (separate) in a matching range this season and wearing the top of one and the bottom of the other.

Choosing a swimsuit

Be sure to try it on, try to do the maximum movements with the breaststroke - crawl - butterfly, if nothing fell out, strapped in place - you can buy, and you are not afraid of anything. Whatever material the swimsuit is made of, at least 18% of lycra will extend its life. In addition, do not be ashamed of your shortcomings, of which everyone has a lot, choose

- and, as a rule, a fragile figure looks very good in a one-piece swimsuit, with a small pattern or with vertical stripes, which visually lengthen the figure.

- The retro models fit perfectly with shorts, it is clear that the tone is dark (black, sea).

-can be "covered" with playful basque skirts or short pareos.

- in a bra with a "push-up" effect, looks no worse than more curvaceous rivals. A good move is a white stripe along the chest line on a dark one-piece swimsuit, in addition, shuttlecocks, ruffles and other volume-increasing details.

- Young ladies suffering from their body profile, if it is worth suffering at all, can safely buy a swimsuit with a V-neck, with underwire.

- for a high-calorie winter, it will not stand out if you attract attention on horseback, or a pareo will come to the rescue here.

- For ladies, we recommend one-piece swimwear with underwire cups to lift the breasts as high as possible. Any vertical - longitudinal pattern and seams, a row of buttons - will also lengthen the torso. A leotard made of combined horizontal multicolored stripes will also fit well - you will have a thin waist in it, if the inserts on the sides gently "bend" inward.

- swimsuit will fit with distinct vertical lines, such as a longitudinal pattern. High cut swimsuit

thighs with panties will make the legs longer. Moderately cut panties are ideal, especially when paired with sandals with medium and wide heels.

- Girls should stop their choice on a bikini with wide straps, a strapless bra and shorts or wrap.

How to extend the life of a swimsuit

- Bathing suits should be washed by hand with soap. Never use powder.

- Do not dry your swimsuit in the sun.

- After swimming in the pool or in the sea, be sure to rinse it in plain water.

- Do not leave a wet swimsuit in a plastic bag for a long time. Basically, beach suits are composed of polyamide and elastane, and there are always chemicals in the water, with which the polyamide reacts and melts.

- Be especially careful with orange and toxic green swimsuits - they fade faster than anyone else.

Enjoy your voyage.
