Are you ready to conquer beach and pool days with confidence and style? Finding a swimsuit that loves your curves as much as you do shouldn’t put a dent in your pool day (or your tummy and hips).
More and more swimsuits are available in inclusive sizing, but the suits that flatter your core are the ones we’re diving into. With slimming panels, ruching and draping that create the illusion of a smaller middle, VENUS makes it easy to find the best swimsuits for tummy control
What to Look for in a Swimsuit that Tames Your Tummy
We love our curves, but sometimes finding a swimsuit that tames the tummy can feel like a challenge. Here’s what you should look for if you’re trying to enhance your core without the core workout:
-
Ruching or draping that flatters and conceals the midsection
-
Cinched waist designs that draw the eye inward and create an hourglass shape
-
Unique prints or color blocking that give the illusion of a trimmer tummy
-
Contouring and shaping material that holds you in
