Guide to choosing swimwear

If you have a large bust, the most important thing is to get proper support. Avoid flimsy materials like cotton and look for suits made out of the more forgiving Lycra. Many bathing suits come equipped with underwire bras and molded cups for a better, more supportive fit. If you want to minimize your large bust try using color-blocking to your advantage by finding a top that's darker than the bottom. Wearing dark, solid colors and sticking with suits that have higher armholes provide more coverage and won't let you "spill out" of your suit. Also, try on bathing suits meant for long torsos. Your bustline can use the extra fabric meant for a longer midriff.
