Swimsuits for Curvy Women

Psychologists have found that for some women, even thinking about trying on a swimsuit can put them in a bad mood.  Sara Bartlett, from Bombshell Beauty, can cheer you up with suits for women sized 16 - 22!

Brandy - Colorblock Swim Tank with Plunge Bra ($59.95) + Solid Black Swim Hipster ($44.95); Striped Floppy Hat ($24.95) + Silver Bangle Bracelets ($19.95) + Silver Cuff ($24.95) from Lane Bryant

Color blocking is not only a current trend right now, but it’s a great way to break out of the all-black suit comfort zone.  By placing color up near your face, the attention is drawn there.  Colorblocking is also an effective way to create the illusion of a curvy waist.

Hillary - Fern Print Swim Tank with Plunge Bra ($59.95) + Ultra High Waist Swim Brief ($49.95); Beach Tote ($49.95) + Silver Stretch Ring ($19.95) from Lane Bryant

This suit features a built-in plunge bra, which is a great solution for all women – small and large busted alike.  The suits are sized not by clothing size, but by bra size – which makes a terrific fit throughout the bust.

Jenn - Monif C Dominica Leopard Mesh Suit ($158) from Bombshell Boutique; Lace Print Sunglasses ($16.95) + Cuff Bracelet ($24.95) + Filigree Earrings ($14.95)

The one piece suit can be super flattering in a glamourous print like leopard.  It camouflages the tummy area and the mesh detail breaks up the print to bring attention up to the bustline and face.  Monif C. is the darling of the fashion world right now thanks to her sexy swimwear.
