The fact is if you need less support, you can opt for skimpier styles that those with larger boobs may not find comfortable to wear. And with triangle, string and cut-out styles being key swimwear trends this season, these are plenty to try out. If, however, you prefer to still have support with underwired or padded styles, I’ve put these in my edit, too. Want to boost your assets? There are so many tricks such as textures, ruffle details and ruching that can help with this. So keep scrolling to shop the best bikinis for smaller busts. But be quick, as we all know swimwear sells out fast this time of year.  You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Online. So we reimagined what a dating should be.

It’s finally happened. Summer is in full swing and whether that means you’ll be jetting off somewhere poolside very soon, or you’re sticking around to enjoy the great British summer, it’s likely you’ll be needing a swimsuit at some point. From garden sunbathing to lido visits and beach days— the humble one-piece is an essential part of our summer rotation. But shopping for one can, for a number of reasons, often induce anxiety and stress. That awful changing room lighting never helps, and even if you decide to try at home, finding one that’s practical, fits perfectly on the boobs and bum and makes you feel great, is a challenge most of us women go through every few years.  It’s also (sadly) true that we probably all have our body hang-ups of some sort, which never makes the process ea...

Like strapless tops and dresses this season, strapless bikinis are literally everywhere. And contrary to popular belief, they can work for all cup sizes. It’s all about finding the right style: if you have a smaller chest, you can go for un-wired styles but may want some padding, if you’ve got a larger cup, then there are underwired, unpadded styles that also come with straps so you can choose to have the extra support when you’re not on the beach. To save you the search for the best ones, here are 17 bandeau bikinis I predict will sell out, fast.  You Deserve to Make Money Even When you are looking for Dates Online.

Whether you need protection from sweltering rays, a transitional beach-to-dinner piece, or a free-flowing frock, you’ll be pleased with the extensive cover-up offerings this year. Swimsuit cover-ups come in a host of designs and fabrications. This summer, aside from the crochet knit, the most predominant style is a silk sarong, which can work as a halterneck dress, a bandeau or, of course, a traditional wrap-around skirt. Cotton-gauze dresses are my favourite type of cover-up, and I tend to squeeze the most wear out of them. They’re suitable for hot temperatures and loose-flowing for maximum comfort. Caravana is an expert at this dress style. It produces organic-looking relaxed pieces crafted with an ancient Mayan technique. Alexandra Miro is another brand to watch. It uses vis...

The second the first warm day comes along, my attention shifts to all things swimwear, partly because of my job as a fashion editor and partly because I prefer to spend 99% of my time in the summer in a bikini or one-piece. So because of the sunny days peaking through over the last few weeks, I’ve already spent quite a few hours scouring the swimwear offerings this year. My biggest takeaway? Zara, H&M, and Mango have seriously stepped up their games in the department. From upside-down bikinis to elegant maillots decorated with floral appliqués, the swimwear designers at Zara, H&M, and Mango went hard this summer. And since their prices don’t come close to ones at many swimwear brands, where a separate bikini top could cost yo...

If you’ve got a holiday on the cards, chances are you’re in full swing searching for the best swimsuits. With so many trends to get to grips with⁠, from triangle string bikini tops to belted swimsuits and cut-outs, it can be a lot to get your head around. And then you have to find the swimwear brands that actually fit and flatter your shape. One thing’s for sure, though: No matter which style you go for, it’s all about bright, bold and joyful colours this year. Think every colour of the rainbow in block colours or prints, and you’ve nailed it. Some colours are of course proving to be more popular than others. But with influencer Emili Sindlev backing ocean blue, Karina Marriott going for soft lilac and stylist Nana Acheampong opting for a sartorial hit of vitamin D...

Just when you think you’ve got to grips with spring/summer’s many trends, it’s time to start thinking about swimwear. And like jean shopping, we know this may not be the most enjoyable task seeing as it’s not always easy to find ‘the one’. Of course the high street is ticking off one-pieces, celeb-loved string bikinis and co-ordinating hats, sarongs and beach cover-ups. But when it comes to swimwear that’ll go the distance, we back designer brands. Worth the extra spend, the right swimwear can take your confidence up a few notches with minimal effort—if it’s the perfect fit, that is. And this is why we’ve taken it upon ourselves to highlight 6 swim labels we’re backing for 2022.  Hunza G with its flattering stretchy designs are of course on the list, then there’s sustainable bran...

Jennifer Lopez certainly loves to experiment with fashion trends, but if you look closely, her style has actually stayed remarkably consistent over the years. I just wrote a story on the trends J.Lo has been bringing back every summer since the ’90s, and you might be surprised to see how she still relies on the same wardrobe classics decade after decade. This also rings true when it comes to her swimwear, as she just shared an Instagram post wearing the most timeless swimsuit trend out there: a black triangle string bikini. Just think of it as the LBD of swimwear: you simply can’t go wrong with it. Lopez’s post has already racked up nearly four million likes and 44,000 comments—significantly more than her other recent posts. Scroll down to shop Jennifer Lop...
