The Most Flattering Swimsuits For Every Body Type

Pear shape: You're curvy at the hips and thighs and smaller on top, like Beyoncé, Jennifer Lopez, and Bebe Rexha.

What to look for: The key to the perfect swimsuit is balancing your proportions and getting the coverage you need for your bottom half.

Tips and tricks:

• For a traditional fix, look for a clean-skirted bottom that falls just below the largest part of the upper leg.
• Avoid reaching for a boy short or thick-banded bottom. The extra fabric will only call attention to the area you're trying to mask.
• A plunging neckline or eye-catching top draws the eye upward, minimizing the bottom.
