The Best Swimsuits For Small-Chested People
Trust me, I know!
Small-busted? Me too, and Iโve been searching high and low for the best bathing suits that suit us.
I donโt mean to boast, but in just a few weeks Iโm flying to Thailand to get some winter sun. Iโm not a big fan of winter, so I prefer booking a holiday around this time of year to escape the cold and rain.

Iโve got a few weeks to prepare, and the first thing Iโm looking for is a decent swimsuit. Sure, bikinis may help you get a better tan, but I need to be able to swim in the sea without panicking that my swimwear is about to fly off.
Bathing suits are my preferred swimwear of choice because I like to feel supported (despite my small boobs), so Iโve been doing a little bit of research into which styles look best on us flat chested people.

Which bathing suits look best on flat chests?
Iโll start by saying that most swimsuits will look good on you if you have a flat chest.
While people with big boobs have to look out for good support in their swimwear, we donโt have to worry about that quite so much.
My goal isnโt necessarily to make my boobs look bigger; Iโm pear-shaped, itโs more to make my body look balanced. Added details like frills and ruffles can do both, creating volume around the chest. Finding swimsuits with padding is also a no-brainer.
Weโre also fortunate to be able to wear styles like cut-out, deep v-neck and one-shoulder swimsuits without fearing any mishaps.

Which necklines are flattering for flat chests?
Whether you prefer deep v-necks, off-the-shoulder or square necklines, most necklines look good on flat chests. It really depends the look youโre trying to achieve, or how practical you really want the swimsuit to be.
You can wear off-the-shoulder, one-shoulder or bandeau swimsuits, although how comfortable youโll feel will depend on what youโre doing in the swimsuit.
Deep V-necks give a streamlined silhouette, while gathered and wrap necklines also give the illusion of volume. I also love high-necks, as I personally find these really flattering.
Do swimsuits get bigger or smaller when wet?
When swimsuits get wet, they may appear to shrink a little as they cling onto your body but this isnโt actually the case.
They tend to stretch with the weight of the water, and this stretching increases over time the more you wear the swimsuit and wash it.
So if youโre wondering whether the swimsuit is a little tight, but the next size up is a little loose, I recommend going with the tighter option.
