- Black;
- White;
- Plain bright other colors;
- Having a print.

A little black dress suits any woman, regardless of her age or weight. You can create a beach look based on a little black dress. Black has few disadvantages:
- Rarely, but there are women for whom black does not suit;
- If the accessories are chosen poorly, the impression of a mournful image is created;
- Black attracts the sun's rays, and it is quite hot to be in such an outfit.
White is the least popular color. On a barely tanned body, it creates a good contrast, creating the impression of a deep and strong tan. The downside of white is its ability to visually add extra pounds. This outfit is suitable for girls with a thin waist who do not have cellulite on their hips. If the volume of the chest and hips is large, with an elegant silhouette, adding volume in these areas will not spoil the appearance of a woman, regardless of her kilograms.
Bright dresses in other colors are great summer options. The color is chosen depending on:
- Color type;
- Personal preferences;
- Beach accessories colors;
- Eye colors;
- Hair colors.
The most popular are purple, turquoise, red. It is appropriate to use summer options - lemon, light green, orange and the like. When choosing a swimsuit of this color, you should take care of the compatibility of the color scheme with accessories:
- With a hat;
- Bag;
- With slates.
Dresses with prints attract attention to the pattern and print, and not to the presence of extra pounds and folds on the body. It is recommended to choose small or medium, as well as abstract patterns - too large ones draw attention to curvy shapes. Abstract or geometric patterns are also popular. The color scheme of such an outfit is selected depending on the color type, personal preferences and the color of the patterns.
Selection rules
The choice of outfit should depend on the type of figure, the location of the most problematic areas. The swimsuit should have a shape and color that draws attention to the most slender and beautiful parts of the body and distracts attention from problem areas. To do this, before choosing a style, color, the greatest disadvantages of the figure are determined.
If the problem area is full hips, it is recommended to choose a dress with a dark skirt and a light-colored bodice. A single-color model is chosen if the pattern on it changes from light to dark. The upper part of the swimsuit should not have guipure, ruffles, frills, or decor (they visually increase the volume, then the figure looks fuller).
If the most problematic areas are the stomach and waist (typical for women with an oval or apple body type), models with a non-tight stomach are chosen. Rare dresses have corrective inserts that pull in the stomach. It is preferable to choose a skirt with a flare starting from the bust line.
Women who want to draw attention to their breasts are advised to choose a dress with a large number of decorative frills and ruffles on the bodice. The option of draping or decorating the bodice with stones is suitable. Drawing attention to the breasts will help hide problem areas on the hips.
If a wide waist is a problem, a dress with dark inserts on the sides or black at the waist is needed. A vertical pattern visually reduces volume. At the same time, the bodice can be made in a different color, which will visually add volume and distract attention from the waistline.
Bathing dresses for women are a good solution for bold owners of curvy shapes. Posture and gait in this dress are important. Slouching and hunching visually add extra volume to the abdomen and waist. In order for a lady to look beautiful, she should feel confident. To do this, it is necessary to choose the right model, color, style of the swimsuit. If necessary, it is complemented by a pareo. Ladies with curvy shapes are suitable for using a white pareo with fringe and decorated with inserts. A skillfully selected image will help a lady feel comfortable on the beach during her vacation.
