Stripes and Beyond
Stripes have been a fashion forerunner for ages. SwimSpot offers a mixed selection of stripes for you to choose from. We invite you to shop our site to see the many options we offer. From tankinis to Brazilian bikinis, we have something for every physique.
There are a myriad of perks to wearing the right kinds of stripes. If you are unsure of what swimsuit would be the most complementary to your body shape, we invite you to consult with our
Fit Specialists. We make them available to you to ensure you buy the perfect suit to flatter and fit your figure while staying on trend for 2012.
By implementing stripes into your swim ensemble, you can create the illusion of a slimmer figure, added curves or a longer physique. All stripes and patterns will look different on each body type, so we encourage you to step out of your comfort zone and select a new fresh look for the season. SwimSpot wants to make sure you purchase swimwear that provides the most flattering fit.
Diagonal stripes are said to be the most universally flattering as they draw attention to the center of the body, and then downward, creating the allusion of hourglass figure. The
Guess Naughtical Underwire Bikini Top & Bikini Brief feature bold red and white stripes for a little nautical twist on a classic silhouette!
Vertical stripes naturally lengthen one's body; these lines create a long and lean look. The
Athena Moonstruck Slimming Halter One-Piece is a more conservative bathing suit that is ultra-flattering. This one-piece swimsuit elongates the torso and gives the illusion of a trim figure while the Slim-Power Lining flatters and conceals.
With the
Splendid Malibu Stripe Asymmetrical Bandeau Bikini Top & Retro Bikini Bottom, tasteful horizontal stripes are illustrated beautifully. Horizontal stripes draw attention from the eyes to create a leaner look. As a general rule of thumb: the wider the stripe, the smaller you will appear.
So get in line girls and spring into this seasons stripey side with sexy swimwear shapes!
