1. Swim Dress

Swim dresses look very pretty and chic; the dress-like style looks totally adorable when worn with the right accessories. If you are heavy on the hips and feel conscious about it, then a skirted swimwear is what you need. It gives you coverage in all the right places.

Tip & Tricks

• Choose ruffled or skater skirt portion to conceal heavy thighs.
• We suggest you style it with a pair of trendy flip-flops and stylish shades.

2. V-Cut Swimsuit

If you have a curvy body type with a full bust, hips, thighs and butt then a V-cut swimsuit is your beach buddy. If you are not very comfortable with showing off too much skin then steer clear of the ones that have cut-outs or stringy sides. Instead, you can try ones with a sexy low back or could opt for solid shades.

Tip & Tricks

• Diagonal stripes can give a slimming illusion whereas vertical stripes can make you look taller
• Draw attention to your torso by picking a plunging neckline or a scoop back

3. Tankini

If you have heavy legs and prefer more leg coverage then you could opt for a tankini. This usually comes in a set of 2 – a tank top and a pair of well-fitted shorts. This gives a very sporty & chic look while making you look athletic and fit.

Tip & Tricks

• Pick a length of shorts that is neither too short that rides up nor too long running all the way to your knees. The perfect length can make your legs look leaner and taller.
• Draw attention away from your problem areas with a stylish floppy hat or over sized sunglasses. This will attract the focus to your pretty face and away from your heavy thighs.
