Swimwear Tips For An Athletic Figure

Tips and recommendations from our swimwear specialists to help you choose swimwear to compliment an athletic figure.

We all want to look and feel confident in our swimwear whatever body shape we are. 

Women with athletic body types often have a similar width to their shoulders, waist and hips. Women with athletic body shapes tend to have broad shoulders, narrow hips and a smaller bust.

Here is some swimwear tips and advice for an athletic body shape so you can feel confident and comfortable in your swimsuittankini or bikini.

Swimwear Tips For An Athletic Figure  

For women with an athletic shaped body our swimwear specialists advise…

  • If you want to enhance your waistline then try a wrap swimsuit. This is a perfectly flattering swimsuit style for athletic body types.
  • A twist front swimsuit or a plunging neckline swimsuit will add some interest to the bust area and can visually soften broad shoulders.
  • Swimsuits with detail around the waist will also create a waistline and enhance the natural curves of an athletic body shape.
  • To enhance your hips try going for bikini bottoms with details, like rings on the hips or folded bikini briefs or bikini briefs with tie sides.
  • To enhance the bust try something with horizontal stripes across the bustline.
  • Try a lightly padded swimsuit top or bikini top to enhance the bust area.
  • Try thick straps as spaghetti style bikini tops with thin straps may draw attention to broad shoulders, whereas thicker straps will flatter the upper body.
