The cut add curves, the color that boosts
your tan – this summer’s hottest styles don’t just look good on models, they
work for real bodies, too. Go on, we dare you
Sports luxe
Sporty styles look slick while providing
confidence-boosting coverage. They key to looking more glam than gala? Choose
on-trend brights and figure-flaunting details – a zip neckline flatters every
bust size.

Neon brights
A bikini can seem scary enough – never mind
in neon! But bright colors actually make tans appear deeper, which has a
slimming effect. Enhance your assets with a classic halterneck or, if you want
a more defined shape, choose a padded bandeau.

Cutaway classics
Don’t be afraid of cut-out styles. Far from
highlighting your bad bits, they actually create the illusion of a more perfect
shape. Combine with a one-shoulder costume to elongate your body or max your
tan in a strapless number, which creates a wisp of a waist.
