What Women Want
- Comfortable bust support
- Flattering fabric with tummy control
- Just the right amount of sexiness
- Modest coverage
- Fun colors and prints
Bust Support
If you’ve got it, flaunt it—and you most certainly do! Show it off in swimsuits that provide adequate bust support and structure: think styles featuring underwire, padding and built-in cups. Depending on the level of coverage and oomph you want, choose a swimsuit with features that lift and support your style (and chest).
Smaller Busts
For small busts, a push-up top can give the extra oomph you desire. If you love two-piece suits, bra-style bikini tops are the way to go. VENUS has so many to choose from starting at size 32A!
If a one-piece is more your speed, try a one-piece with a bra top. Our Textured Cut-out One-Piece has molded cups and an underwire that give your girls a boost. Plus, the chic ring detail at the bust draws the eye up and puts attention on your cleavage.
Prefer something a little more modest? Our Ruched Bra One-Piece offers extra coverage up top, while draped fabric at the bust adds welcome volume to your chest. Another sneaky upside to this suit: shape-smoothing power mesh!
Larger Busts
- The Underwire Halter Bikini Top strikes a perfect balance between coverage and cleavage.
- The Bandeau Bling One-Piece offers a strapless lift.
Tummy Control
- The belted Slimming Swim Dress creates the illusion of an hourglass figure.
- The Peek-a-Boo Halter One-Piece shapes your middle while showing off a flirty peek of skin.
Sexy Swimsuits
Believe it or not, skimpy does not necessarily equal sexy. It’s all about balance. Even if you’re rocking a one-piece, a few striking details are all it takes to turn heads. Choose a swimsuit that offers the coverage you want and incorporates the hottest swim trends, like long-sleeves, cut-outs and plunging necklines.
Coverage
For a little extra coverage around the middle, consider blouson tankini tops that are oh-so-forgiving, but also stylish. For more bum coverage, pull on a flirty skirted one-piece swim dress. And don’t forget about après swim layers! Chic beach cover-ups, like effortless kimonos, are perfect for adding coverage and adding to your look at the same time.
Flattering Prints
Creating a flattering silhouette is a breeze with the right print. Diagonal lines or color blocking, for example, can work magic by drawing the eye inward and diverting attention away from areas you’d rather not highlight. Our Crisscross One-Piece is the perfect example with its inverted “V” pattern that lengthens your figure.
