Best Flattering Swimwear
Flattering swimwear comes in so many different forms, such as tummy control swimsuits. These swimsuits can feature discrete tummy control lining or panels and clever design features which help shape and flatter your body and particularly the tummy area. If you feel conscious of your tummy area then please read our swimwear tips to help hide the tummy.
Best Flattering Swimsuits
Shaping swimsuits are some of the most flattering swimwear and can help to smooth the silhouette and flatten the tummy area with features such as a comfortable lining and powernet panels. Plus design features such as twist front and ruching that help to flatter your figure.
Classic black and specially placed patterns can also give a flattering appearance. Take a look at a selection of our top flattering and best slimming swimsuits we have picked out for you.
FLATTERING TUMMY CONTROL SWIMSUITS
A tummy control swimsuit is perfect for those looking for flattering swimsuits that will help shape the tummy and smooth your silhouette. These swimsuits usually have a number of features to help ‘flatten’ or ‘smooth’ the tummy area. A lining to the front can help flatten the tummy and a twist front / ruching design gives a slimming look.
A one-piece suit with tummy control will help slim your silhouette and we have a good selection to choose from.
Ulla Dessous St. Tropez Underwired Swimsuit - 9112.
Available in B to K cup sizes up to bra back size 52. In classic black to slim the silhouette. This swimsuit comes with very strong lining at the tummy section and we recommend going up in the back and cup sizing. This one piece is perfect for your summer holiday and features adjustable side ties so that you can customise the fit.
Double Lined Flattering Swimsuits
Try a shaping swimsuit with a double lined front as this lining will hold your curves in place, flatter the tummy area and enhance your comfort. We have lots of swimsuits with a lining, one of our best selling swimsuits is the Ottawa Twist Front Adjustable Leg Swimsuit. The flattering fit of this swimsuit features stunning gold design details that compliment the straps and a high cut leg eith adjustable side ties.
TWIST FRONT SWIMSUITS
A twist front swimsuit is a flattering choice as the light gathering to the front helps to give a smooth tummy area. The twist front gathering can accentuate the bust area giving the appearance of a flat tummy as the eye is drawn upwards away from the stomach. We love the Langkawi Underwired Adjustable Leg Twist Front Swimsuit - FS501731

A new black swimsuit which we think will be a firm favourite is the Elomi Bazaruto soft cup swimsuit.

We love the Fantasie Hope Bay Underwired Adjustable Leg Swimsuit with a colourful animal print design to the the costume.
Best Flattering Tankini Tops
Tankini tops are great if you are looking for tummy coverage but you want to mix and match with bikini bottoms. Like swimsuits, tankini tops can help to smooth the silhouette and flatten the tummy area with features such as lining and powernet panels and design features such as twist front and ruching.
