Best Swimsuits for an Inverted triangle Body Shape
Swimsuits can add a little more to the lower half and soften the bust line.
This guide is for the inverted triangle body shape: bust at least 5% bigger than the hips, with a waist under 85% of the bust.
Look for
- Halter and V-neck tops with wide straps and good support
- Bottoms with ruffles, ties, prints or boy-short cuts
- One-pieces with a plunging V and a printed or ruched bottom half
- Dark tops paired with bright or patterned bottoms
Skip or adjust
- Bandeau tops and off-the-shoulder styles that widen the shoulders
- Thin string straps if you need support
- Plain, tiny bottoms with a heavily detailed top
