Best Swimsuit Styles for Hourglass Shapes

1. Underwired Bikinis: Support Meets Style

A fuller bust deserves the right lift.
Underwired bikini tops offer structured support that highlights the hourglass shape while keeping everything secure and sculpted.

Our tip: Go for adjustable straps and back clasps to customize your comfort and fit.

2. High-Waisted Bottoms: Hello, Waistline!

Highlight your natural waist with high-waisted bikini bottoms that draw the eye to your center. This classic style not only defines your hourglass shape but also gives retro-glam vibes that never go out of style.

3. Wrap-Style One Pieces: Cinched to Perfection

Want a suit that literally hugs your curves?
Opt for wrap swimsuits or styles with side ties and belted waists. These accentuate your hourglass shape while providing comfort and chic contouring.

4. Plunge Necklines: Embrace the Hourglass Elegance

A subtle plunge neckline helps elongate the torso and frames your bust beautifully, especially on an hourglass shape. It's all about balance and confidence—without ever feeling too revealing.This is where classy meets sultry. Pair with a sheer sarong and you're good to glow.

5. Ruched Detailing: Soft Sculpting That Flatters

Ruching adds texture and movement—plus it works like a charm for curvy bodies. Suits with ruching over the midsection or sides flatter your hourglass shape by enhancing those natural contours.
