Flattering Swimwear for all Body Types

September 18, 2020

Jetting off on holiday this summer? Or maybe you’re planning to chill out in the garden on a staycation? Whatever your plans, chances are a swimsuit or three will factor into your summer! And we’ve got just the pieces to make you feel relaxed and confident this season.

 

Let’s be honest; summer 2020 has been a bit disappointing where plans are concerned. Weddings, festivals, and holidays have all been cancelled. But now the world is starting to get back on its feet; chances are you’re looking forward to your next week spent relaxing on a sun lounger (even if it is in your back garden). To celebrate the August heatwave, here’s some of our favourite plus size swimwear from our summer collection. Enjoy!

 

The tankini

Looking for something super-flattering, but not too revealing? A tankini could be the answer to your prayers. We love tankinis as they’re great for covering up areas you might be self-conscious, about, but show off your killer legs and cleavage! Team yours with a pair of flip flops and a slouchy bag for effortless vaycay vibes.

 

The mesh one

 

Bring some serious glamour to the beach with this mesh panelled swimsuit. Why do we love this one? It’s got an underwired bra and lined cups for extra support, so you know you’ll feel your best self when you have it on! Oh, and it’s mesh detailing is super-sexy too. Wear with a pair of Birkenstocks and hoop earrings for chilled-out beachy glam this season.

 

The stripey one

Swimwear and stripes go together like sun, sea, and sangria! We’ve fallen in love with the little stripey number. Its super-flattering high-waist briefs and lightly padded top are perfect for giving the support whilst still looking fabulous by the pool. Match with leather sandals for a cute vaycay look that will never go out of style.

 

The cover-ups

 

Here at Curvissa, we’re firm believers in the ‘if you’ve got it, flaunt it’ mantra, but sometimes you just want to cover up a bit! It could be getting chilly, or that beach cafe might have a ‘no swimwear’ rule. Whatever your reasons for covering up, we’ve got the pieces you need to still feel oh-so-fabulous.

 

The Swim Dresses

Cute? Check. Flattering? Check. Versatile? Check! Swim dresses are fabulous if you want to feel relaxed and confident at the beach or by the pool. So why do we love swim dresses? They’re an excellent go-to if you don’t fancy showing off the tops of your thighs, but don’t want to cover up too much with a sarong. They’re super retro also, so you’ll look like a 50s pin-up girl! And that’s not all, a right swim dress can be worn in the pool for sure, but it’s also versatile enough to get away with wearing for drinks at a beach side bar too.
