Four Swimwear Myths Busted
Never wear white before Easter or after labor day? Even swimwear has a set of myths that can be busted.
Myth: Buy the same size swimwear that you wear in clothing.
Fact: Swimsuits are typically sized smaller than clothing because they're meant to fit snug and tight. As with clothing, swimwear sizes can vary with the manufacturer. A size 2 or medium swimsuit made by Ujena, may not be the same size 2 or medium sold by Victoria's Secret. Hint: If you buy a junior size, you may consider going up one or two sizes, especially with brands that specifically target juniors like Roxy or Juicy Couture.
Myth: Never wear a white bathing suit because it will become transparent and see-through.
Fact: While this is a possibility, simply make sure there's a good inner lining to block any transparent effects.
Myth: The more your swimsuit covers of your body, the better.
Fact: Extra fabric, especially if it's bunched up or puckered, can emphasize that very feature you intended to cover up. Instead of covering up, find a swimsuit that fits correctly. An overly tight swimsuit can cause "muffin" waist and have the same "muffin" effect around your breasts, thighs and butt. Try a string adjustable swimsuit that can be adjusted to lay flat.
Myth: Wearing a black swimsuit can make you look thinner.
Fact: Any dark color can do the same thing: Navy, maroon, brown and dark green. If you have parts that you prefer to camouflage, avoid horizontal strips at all costs. Instead go for vertical and diagonal stripes or even prints can hide quite a bit and make the body look leaner.
