Gone is the barely there monokini and bathing
suits that leave little to the imagination! We've all seen the suits on
television and in magazines that make us want to run and hide in a t-shirt and
shorts. But swimsuits have become more of a less terrifying trend this year
especially for women with trouble areas. Whether it's small busts or the tummy
that won't shrink, this seasons fads are fabulous for one and all!
The modern interpretation of the 50's inspired
swimsuit to the stars is red hot and screams Hollywood. Think Marilyn Monroe or
Betty Grable – high-waisted bottoms and halter tops. A great suit for most body
types, especially if you are lacking curves.

Color blocking is another must-have stye of suit
this season. Swimsuits in purples, blues and yellow hues are taking over the
runways and beaches around the world. The new trend of unmatched colored tops
and bottoms are eye catching and offer a larger variety of styles to choose
from.
The Bandeau bathing suit is at the top of the
most popular list. A flashback from the seventies, the bandeau is the new
string bikini and is set to stick around for a long time! For those blessed
with a little less up top, the bandeau tends to enhance the chest without
padding or bulky liners.

Last, but not least, the one piece (believe it or
not!) is one of the "it" suits for summer. Modest, yet modern, the
one piece is rockin' metallics and vibrant colors. Great news for ALL body
types! Rouching (or gathered fabric) in “trouble” areas, either tummy or chest,
is hot when it comes to the one piece this year, making it safe for everyone to
swim once again!
