If you have recently been shopping for swimwear you will know that there are so many different styles, colours and brands on the market. Up until the late 1990’s there were pretty much two options a bikini or a bathing suit, now there are other options like the tankini. So, what do you choose, well we are here to help you decide.
What is a Tankini?
A
tankini is a two-piece bathing suit that has a tank style top, meaning the bathing top extends below the breast area. A tankini is considered by many to be closer to a one-piece bathing suit as it offers more coverage than a
bikini. It is ideal for women who prefer the modesty of a one-piece bathing suit but like the convenience of a bikini.
Long gone are the days when there were only a few styles, cuts and colours in swimwear, nowadays the sky’s the limit when it comes to styles, patterns, colours. There are open backs, loose fits, tight fits, bold prints, halter neck, bandeau, plus a tankini is a great option if you need more support as there are underwired and padded options for extra support and uplift. The tankini is also a good option if you are worried about sun exposure as it covers more skin.
Remember when selecting swimwear, it isn’t about choosing swimwear that suits your body shape it’s about choosing styles that feel comfortable to wear and make you shine!
