How to Choose the Right Bikini for Your Body Type: A Summer Honey Guide

Shopping for a bikini should be exciting—not overwhelming. At Summer Honey Swim, we believe every body is a bikini body, and the key to finding your perfect suit is knowing what makes you feel confident, supported, and beautiful. Whether you’re looking for a flattering high-waisted bikini, a supportive underwire top, or a cheeky bikini bottom that shows off your curves, we’ve got you covered.

Here’s how to choose the best bikini for your body type, with style recommendations straight from our collection.

1. Hourglass Shape

Traits: Balanced bust and hips with a defined waist.

Your Perfect Match:
✔️ Kitty Underwire Top – Enhances your natural curves with structured support.
✔️ Luna High Rise Bottoms – Accentuate your waist while providing a vintage-inspired, flattering fit.

Try It In: Lurex Teal or Classic Black for a glam, curve-hugging look.

2. Pear Shape

Traits: Hips are wider than the bust; defined lower body.

Your Perfect Match:
✔️ Honey Bandeau Top – Draws attention upward and evens out your proportions.
✔️ Summer Mid Rise Bottoms – Offers balanced coverage without cutting into your hips.

Try It In: Lurex Hot Pink or Neon Orange to highlight the top half.

3. Athletic/Rectangle Shape

Traits: Straight silhouette, fewer curves, often with a more athletic build.

Your Perfect Match:
✔️ Lolo Triangle Top – Creates dimension and enhances the bust.
✔️ Bonnie Cheeky Bottoms – Adds playful curves and highlights your shape.

Try It In: Light Pink and White Zebra print or Peach Lurex to add movement and softness.

4. Apple Shape

Traits: Broader upper body and waist, with slimmer legs and hips.

Your Perfect Match:
✔️ Kitty Underwire Top – Provides lift and definition to the bust.
✔️ Luna High Rise Bottoms – Offers tummy support and creates a defined waistline.

Try It In: Blue & Pink Rose Print or Classic Black for elegance and balance.

5. Petite Frame

Traits: Smaller stature and shorter torso or legs.

Your Perfect Match:
✔️ Lolo Triangle Top – Enhances curves and elongates the torso.
✔️ Bonnie Cheeky Bottoms – Makes legs look longer and keeps the silhouette sleek.

Try It In: Fuchsia or Peach Lurex for a bright, leg-lengthening look.

6. Curvy or Full Bust

Traits: Fuller bust, may need more support on top.

Your Perfect Match:
✔️ Kitty Underwire Top – A must-have for support, lift, and comfort.
✔️ Summer Mid Rise Bottoms – Balances the silhouette without too much coverage.

Try It In: Neon Orange or Zebra Print for bold confidence.
