Dial‑in Your Suit to Your Body Type

No two swimmers hit the lane with the same physique, but every body deserves pro‑level comfort and confidence. Start by spotting the profile that’s closest to yours—Hourglass, Pear, Diamond, or Athletic—then lean on our SwimExpert tips to lock in the suit that feels like it was cut just for you.

⏳Hourglass

Signature look: balanced bust and hips with a defined, narrow waist.
SwimExpert tip‑off: Your proportions are the crowd‑pleaser of body geometry, so showcase them! Reach for halter‑neck or under‑wired tops that keep the girls secure when you’re sprinting for the wall. Don’t shy away from bright hues or statement prints—your symmetry can handle it.

Pro podium picks: retro‑inspired one‑pieces, adjustable‑strap bikinis, and any cut that lets you cinch the waist for extra hourglass pop.

🍐 Pear

Signature look: fuller through hips and thighs, slimmer up top.
SwimExpert tip‑off: Flip the visual script by spotlighting shoulders and décolletage. A plunge‑neck tankini or print‑packed top paired with a darker, high‑cut bottom lengthens legs and evens out proportions. Side‑panel colour‑blocking is our secret weapon for streamlining the silhouette.

Pro podium picks: plunging V‑necks, ruffle or lace‑up fronts, colour‑block one‑pieces with contour stripes.

💎 Diamond

Signature look: strong shoulders and/or fuller bust tapering to narrower hips.
SwimExpert tip‑off: Support first—look for halter styles with adjustable ties, mid‑band anchoring, and molded or shelf bras. Keep necklines moderate (sweetheart, scoop, square) to avoid the dreaded “uni‑boob,” and let the party happen below the waist: side ties, belts, or contrast‑colour briefs build visual balance.

Pro podium picks: sport‑back one‑pieces, mix‑and‑match sets with solid supportive tops and animated bottoms, wide‑strap tanks.

🏃♀️ Athletic

Signature look: straighter lines, toned shoulders, minimal waist definition.
SwimExpert tip‑off: Craft curves with smart seaming. One‑pieces featuring waist belts or hourglass paneling carve definition, while high‑leg cuts elongate. Don’t be afraid to splash on feminine prints, mesh inserts, or ruching to soften the power‑athlete vibe.

Pro podium picks: belted maillots, cut‑out suits that nip the mid‑section, bold geometric or floral patterns.

Quick Check‑Out

• Test the turn: Stretch, streamline, and simulate a flip turn in the fitting room—security and coverage should stay rock solid.

• Fabric matters: Chlorine‑resistant blends like PBT/poly keep color pop and compression season after season.

• Train vs. lounge: Racing practice? Prioritize hydrodynamics and support. Pool‑deck chilling? Feel free to dial up the frills.
