Views
To begin with, it should be noted that all swimsuits are divided into one-piece, separate and conditionally separate models. And if from the name of the first two it immediately becomes clear what they are, then the third option can cause some difficulties for the uninitiated.

Monokini
Monokini is one of the most popular types of swimwear for the past few seasons. The model is a one-piece bathing suit, which has cutouts on the sides or on the belly. It can be considered conditionally separate because these very cutouts can be as large as possible, and it would be very problematic to call such a swimsuit one-piece. This model can successfully visually correct some problem areas of the body.

For example, if your pride is a flat tummy, but the sides are a little embarrassing, choose a monokini with a cutout on the belly. Such a swimsuit will reveal a neat navel, emphasizing the slimness of the body, and hide a small defect at the waist.

If there are no extra volumes on the sides, but still the waist is by nature not aspen, choose the model with the deepest cutouts on the sides. They visually deepen the curves of the body in the waist area, thereby making you more graceful and slim.

Separate
Such models traditionally include a bodice and swimming trunks. Their assortment allows you to make the right choice for the owner of almost any type of figure, with the exception of overweight young ladies.

One of the most common types of bikini is halter - his bodice consists of two triangles located on the chest. The tie through the neck allows the upper to fit well on the bust, preventing slipping while swimming.

The underwire halter will help girls whose breasts do not have an ideal shape, emphasizing its roundness and showing it in the most favorable angle.

For the most daring and liberated girls, an extremely open model has been created - micro-swimwear. They are sewn from a minimum amount of fabric, which allows you to cover only the most intimate parts of the body. To put on such a swimsuit, you need to be 100% sure of the impeccability of your figure, because any, even the most insignificant flaw or even 1 extra kilogram in it will be conspicuous and ruin any, even the most thoughtful summer look. Therefore, before buying such a swimsuit, you should critically examine yourself in the mirror to make sure that your forms are perfect.

Tank is another mega popular swimsuit model. As a rule, it is a classic underwire bodice with tight cups, sometimes equipped with a stunning push-up effect. Such a top will be most useful for those ladies whose bust does not differ in curvaceous forms. Due to silicone or gel inserts, which can be sewn in or removable, the breast can visually increase up to two sizes, become more lush and elastic.

The bandeau model, which is correctly matched to the figure, looks very gentle and feminine. The strapless bodice helps to showcase the fragile female shoulders in all its glory, giving the whole look lightness and airiness. Complementing such a swimsuit with a beach dress made of flying transparent fabric, you will create an unusually graceful and carefree look.

Fused
Plonge is a model created for the fatal seductresses. It would seem that one-piece models are much more restrained and more modest than separate ones, but this is definitely not about this swimsuit. In the plunge, the chest is not covered with a horizontal strip of fabric, as is customary in all other models, but with a vertical one. This exposes the bust as much as possible, covering only a small part of it. In such a swimsuit you will be the queen of the beach, all the views of the surrounding men will be directed exclusively at you.

A very interesting model is the swim dress. To understand what she is, you can already by the name - in translation from English it is called “dress for swimming”. The leotard is a one-piece cut with a skirt that barely covers the buttocks. It will be an excellent choice for those girls who have slight problems with the figure and are embarrassed to demonstrate their silhouette in all its glory.

For the pool
Sports swimwear models can be either one-piece or separate. Since their main purpose is to provide the swimmer with maximum comfort during training, in the process of creating them, the emphasis is placed on functionality, and only then on appearance.
![](https://fashion.decorexpro.com/images/article/thumb/450-0/2017/02/vidy-kupalnikov-42.jpg)
As a rule, pool models have a fairly closed neck, but open shoulders, which allows you to work with your hands in a variety of directions without hindrance. The cutout on the back of the one-piece models contributes to better streamlining, which greatly affects the athlete's speed.

Separate sports swimwear is a top without cups and bones and shorts as short as possible. Such a model is made of elastane with the addition of lycra - artificial materials perfectly tolerate chlorine, which is contained in large quantities in the pool water. Unlike natural fabrics, which after the first swim in such water will lose their color and shape, swimwear made of synthetic fibers will last a long time and help to develop the required speed in the water.

Decor
In the creation of swimsuits, various decorative elements are often used, which are designed to diversify the choice of fashionistas and correct some figure flaws.

In the recent past, swimsuits with rhinestones and trimmings with various beads, beads, shells and other lurid paraphernalia were very popular. Now this trend has begun to decline, giving way to feminine frills and airy ruffles. Such a detail perfectly corrects the shape of the bust, emphasizing its size and, if necessary, visually enlarging it slightly.

Swimwear decorated with fringe has become widespread - it can be in tune with the swimsuit or in sharp contrast with it. In addition to the aesthetic function, it can hide a problem tummy and stretch marks on it (when positioned along the bottom of the bodice) or decorate the thighs by hiding cellulite or extra centimeters underneath (when finishing panties).

A very interesting option is when panties are trimmed in a circle with fringe - such a model of a swimsuit can be called a swim dress, because it will very much resemble a skirt. You can safely choose such a beach suit with thongs instead of classic swimming trunks, because the buttocks will be covered with fringe, and only in some moments and movements will they be exposed, creating exciting moments and attracting the enthusiastic glances of the male half of humanity to you.

Colour
Delicate pastel shades - light peach, pale pink, airy heavenly shade and seductive nude beige - are becoming more relevant than ever. Complementing such swimwear with a light white pareo, the image is incredibly light and weightless.

The colors that symbolize the sea - sky blue, blue, aquamarine - will never lose their popularity. Probably, precisely because all the tones of blue are associated with urban fashionistas with a vacation on the sunny coast and the sea surf, they most often choose this particular shade of swimwear.

The marine theme remains an invariable favorite - a swimsuit-vest and prints in the form of anchors create a mood for relaxation and help to plunge into an atmosphere of carelessness and fun.

A combination of a bodice and swimming trunks of different colors will be very useful for those girls who have slight problems with their figure. As you know, light visually increases, and dark - decreases. This property of color is used to the full by cunning women of fashion, picking up black panties and a light bodice, if the hips are slightly too large, and the chest is a little less than the ideal size.

If the figure is of the “inverted triangle” type (wide shoulders and narrow hips), you can use this combination the other way around - a black or dark bodice without additional details will visually narrow the shoulders, and light panties will make the silhouette more harmonious, without focusing on narrow boyish thighs.
