Dive In: Best Swimsuits for Small Busts
Table of Contents
The style of bikini top or one-piece you choose will depend on what it is you want from your swimwear. Are you looking to add some oomph up top, or do you want to keep it sleek and chic? Whatever your preference, we’ve got you covered with the best swimsuits for small busts—literally.
Swimsuits to Enhance a Small Bust
First things first, let’s break free from the idea that padding is the only way to flatter a smaller chest—groundbreaking, we know! While both underwire and padding can provide great lift, fun details can give you a boost too. If you’re looking to balance or distract from a smaller bust, these are some of the best features to look for to add that va-va-voom you’re after:
- Molded cups give you more volume
- Underwire tops lift and support
- Feminine frills or ruffles add volume and visual interest
- Plunging necklines create the illusion of cleavage
- Bandeau tops put your décolletage on display
Push-up Bikini Tops for Small Busts
VENUS is the Originator of Swim Separates, so trust us when we say we’ve got the right tops for smaller breasts. When shopping for a push-up bikini top for a small bust, look for features like ruching, flirty ruffles, or bold prints that add even more visual interest and volume.
The Marilyn Top is a best seller for a reason. It has a touch of old Hollywood glamour (hence the name) with its structured cups, wider halter straps and deep plunging neckline. And guess what? To make sizing easy, it’s available in bra sizes starting at 32A.
The Ruched Goddess Enhancer:
The Goddess Enhancer works magic with its ruched design, giving small chests the illusion of extra volume. Molded triangle cups and a supportive under-bust band instantly flatter your beach bod. This bra sized push-up bikini is also available starting at size 32A.
Triangle Tops for Small Busts
Small chests can’t go wrong with the classic triangle bikini top. This iconic swim style is available in tons of colors and prints and with or without structured cups.
The Enhancer Push-Up Triangle Top:
If you want a triangle top that gives you a little extra oomph, we suggest the Enhancer Push-up Triangle Top. It has removable cups and an elastic band beneath the bust for customizable push-up support, making it an ideal swimsuit for small busts. Get it in sizes starting at 32A.
Plunging Triangle Bikini Top:
This sexy top is proof that you can sport a plunging neckline with any chest size! The deep V silhouette elongates your torso and highlights cleavage, while the leopard print trim creates the appearance of a fuller bust. The Plunging Triangle Top has removable padding and a flattering dart in each cup that accentuates curves. Sizing starts at 32A.
Bandeau Tops for Small Busts
Remember what we said earlier about there being no swim style you can’t pull off? The bandeau is certainly one of them, since light-to-moderate support isn’t a deal-breaker for small-busted women.
The Hanky Hem Swim Top:
Speaking of, the Hanky Hem Top has a shelf bra with removable cups and adjustable straps, so you choose the support level you want. Then there’s the sassy handkerchief hem that gives a trendy nod to the 90s while adding an overall fuller look to your bust area. Sizing available in XS-XL.
The Ring Front Bandeau:
This pretty Ring Front Bandeau swim top is just too fun to pass up! The sweetheart neckline creates the illusion of a curvier bust, while the bold print and flirty details add welcome volume. We also love that it has supportive cups to give some extra oomph, plus the strapless look draws attention to your sun kissed shoulders too! Available in sizes 2 to 16.
