IF YOU'RE ATHLETIC...
Resist the urge to gravitate toward boxy, sporty cuts. Instead, take a cue from Lupita Nyong'o and add touches of femininity with scalloped edges or ruffles. I like the bold impact of fuchsia, but if the color is a little much, look for less saturated shades.
IF YOU'RE SMALL-BUSTED...
Give your ladies a little boost (without an actual push up) by drawing attention to the area. Copy Kate Hudson and look for a bandeau bikini that boasts prints and strappy cut-out detailing. Cleavage, made.
IF YOU HAVE A LONG TORSO...
The goal is to shorten, so avoid statement-making patterns at all costs, like chunky stripes that run up and down your torso. Take Jaime King's lead and look for a suit similar to her Babajaan one-piece that's speckled in pretty ditsy prints.
IF YOU'RE PREGNANT...
Flaunt your growing baby bump, like Rachel Bilson! Make your shoreside maternity style stand out with a moodier print and a cool accent-a V-plunge, zippers or otherwise.
IF YOU'RE CURVY...
Look to underwire tops and high-waisted bottoms for extra support and ample coverage. I love Beyonce's take on the pairing, but hot pink and red can be a tad tricky to pull off. go with black and white (the directional stripes create a slimming illusion), instead.
IF YOU'RE PETITE...
Offset a short torso by lengthening your legs. Your best bet? A high-cut string bikini bottom, like Bella Thorne's.
IF YOU'RE BIGGER ON BOTTOM...
Look to Kim Kardashian who always knows how to flatter her best assets. She went with high-waisted bottoms that she paired with a triangle halter.
IF YOU'RE BOY-SHAPED...
Find any opportunity to carve out curves. In Naomi Watt's case, she went with a plunging halter one-piece washed in a fierce leopard print.
