Best Bikini Styles for Every Body Type

Choosing the perfect swimwear is about more than just following trends—it’s about finding a style that reflects your personality and flatters your figure. 

At SuzieQ, we believe everybody deserves to feel fabulous, so our swimwear range is designed to celebrate individuality. From wardrobe classics to current trends, here are the bikini styles for different body types that will help you flaunt your confidence all summer long.

Balancing Broad Shoulders: Draw Attention Downward

If you have broad shoulders, consider swimwear that balances your proportions by drawing the focus to your lower half. Triangle tops and halter necklines create a soft, flattering look that breaks up a wide frame. Pair these with statement bikini bottoms that feature bold prints, bright colours, or fun details. High-cut styles are especially great for elongating the legs.

To take your look to the next level, add ladies’ beachwear cover ups like breezy kaftans or a chic sarong. These pieces are perfect for transitioning from beach to brunch, giving you versatility without sacrificing style.

Accentuating Curves: Celebrate Every Inch

For curvier figures, it’s all about swimwear that highlights and supports your shape. High-waisted bikini bottoms are a must-have, offering coverage and a flattering silhouette. These styles cinch the waist and emphasise your curves, creating a retro-glam vibe reminiscent of Marilyn Monroe.

Opt for vibrant tropical prints or monochromatic tones to add a touch of elegance to your look. SuzieQ’s range includes options that perfectly combine comfort and style, ensuring you feel confident while soaking up the sun.

Small Busts: Playful and Stylish

For those with a smaller bust, the key is to choose styles that add dimension and texture. Look for women's bikini tops with ruffles, ruching, or tie-front details to enhance your natural shape. Padded or push-up tops are also great options for creating volume while staying comfortable.

Pair these playful tops with string bikini bottoms for a sleek, minimalist finish. Mixing prints and solids can add a fun twist to your look while keeping the focus on your top. Don’t be afraid to experiment with bright colours or bold patterns—they’re perfect for adding personality to your summer wardrobe.

Fuller Busts: Supportive and Chic

A fuller bust calls for swimwear that provides both style and support. Structured tops like bra bikini tops with underwire, wide straps, or adjustable features are perfect for keeping everything secure while looking effortlessly chic.

High-waisted bikini bottom styles work beautifully for added coverage, while cheeky cuts can add a touch of boldness.

For a touch of glam, accessorise with gold hoops and a wide-brim hat. Finish the look with a flowing cover-up for a head-to-toe ensemble that works for any beach or poolside occasion.

Petite Frames: Sleek and Elongating

Petite figures can benefit from swimwear that elongates and enhances. Low-rise string bikini bottoms are ideal for creating the illusion of longer legs. Paired with minimalist tops, these styles keep your silhouette sleek and streamlined.

For added flair, consider bold prints or metallic fabrics that stand out. Tropical patterns are always a hit, offering vibrant energy that complements petite frames. SuzieQ’s mix-and-match pieces make it easy to find your perfect combination.

The One-Piece Comeback

One-piece swimsuits are a universal favourite, and 2024 is bringing bold updates to this classic style. Think dramatic cutouts, plunging necklines, and high-leg cuts that add an edgy twist to traditional designs.

SuzieQ’s one-piece options are designed for every body type, offering versatility and style. For a timeless vibe, go for a sleek black one-piece paired with statement jewellery and strappy sandals. If you’re feeling adventurous, try a bold pattern or a textured fabric for a unique look.

SuzieQ tip: Wear a sheer beach dress or a crochet cover-up to seamlessly transition your one-piece from the sand to a sunset party.

Mix-and-Match Freedom

Mix-and-match swimwear is all about expressing your individuality. SuzieQ’s range of women's bikini tops and bottoms lets you create endless combinations to suit your mood.

Pair a tropical-print top with solid bottoms for a balanced look, or combine contrasting patterns for a bold statement. High-waisted cuts with halter tops are great for a retro vibe, while string bikini bottoms paired with a ruched top exude minimalist elegance.

With mix-and-match options, the possibilities are endless. Keep experimenting until you find the combination that feels uniquely you.

Accessories: The Finishing Touch

No swimwear look is complete without the right accessories. Lightweight sarongs, floppy hats, and chic sandals are the perfect add-ons for a day at the beach. SuzieQ’s collection of beachwear cover-ups features versatile pieces that add style and functionality to your summer wardrobe.

Finish with oversized sunglasses and delicate jewellery to channel your inner It Girl. Whether you’re lounging by the pool or heading to a beach party, accessories can elevate any swimwear ensemble.
