The Top 3 Most Flattering Swimsuit Styles

Swimsuit shopping can all too often be a test of endurance. Between the styles, the cut, and the fit, finding the suit that meets everything on your checklist can feel more like dating in the dark. So to help make the process a bit more seamless (and to get you in that beachy mindset), we're turning to some of the most stylish celebs to see which swimsuit styles they wear on repeat. Even better, we decided to enlist our friends at Cami and Jax to lend their expertise and explain how each style works to flatter the figure. Keep reading to see what they had to say!
"One-pieces are like our second skin. We consider them our power suits at Cami and Jax. With the correct fit, any and all body types can cut a striking silhouette in a one-piece. Classic, sexy, modern, sophisticated—think less about concealing the negatives and more about highlighting your best features. The one-piece isn't something to hide behind, but instead something to be empowered by. It projects poise, self-assurance, and leaves just enough to the imagination."
On Beyoncé: Stella McCartney bathing suit.
On Bella Hadid: Bruna Malucelli Bay My Name Swimsuit ($220).
"High-rise bikinis are incredibly flattering on most women, as they draw the eye to the natural waistline. They create the illusion of an hourglass shape on smaller women, and on curvier girls, they nip the waist in and hug all the right contours. This style screams retro glamour but is still very youthful. It will bring out the pinup girl in just about anyone!"
On Gigi Hadid: Solid Striped bikini top and bottoms.
On Solange Knowles: Minnow Bathers bikini top and bottoms.
On Taylor Swift: ASOS bikini top and bottom.

"The triangle top is our go-to bikini style. It's simple, it's athletic, and it's super sexy. This style works well to enhance a smaller bust, but is also great for well-endowed women. When the triangle top fits well, it can be very secure and give lift and definition, no scaffolding required."
On Rihanna: Charlie Grecian Coin Bikini ($75).
H&M+ Triangle Bikini Top ($25) and H&M+ Bikini Bottoms ($18)
For Love Lemons Alicante Lace Triangle Top ($97) and Ruffle Bottoms ($97).
