You could make it your life goal to solely buy the one type of swimsuit you've gotten compliments on. Or you could try any of these six trends, which will flatter your figure no matter what shape you've got. What's more, these silhouettes are all fresh for 2019, meaning they're stocked aplenty on your favorite sites and you've likely already double-tapped them on Instagram. Whether you're a bikini babe or you love sophisticated maillots, there's a design here you can trust to highlight your best assets, hug your curves, and make you feel equal parts secure and stylish on the beach.
Look for a structured top that provides lift but still feels comfortable. While you may have to test out the underwire on these designs, there's no denying they'll make you look sculpted and stylish all at once.

Solid + Striped The Ginger ($168)
Everyone has their own favorite neon shade. Whether you prefer prints or minimal designs, think about the beach accessories you own that will complement your look, and choose a color that highlights your skin glow.
These slashes at the side — no matter how big or small — draw attention to your waist and help to perfectly define your figure. You can get the look with a one-piece or a high-rise bikini, with an animal-print suit like Salma Hayek's, or with something plain and nondistracting, in which case, it's all about the silhouette.

Flagpole Lynn Sash One Piece ($395)
Slip into a rust-colored bikini or a caramel maillot, and you're instantly ready for an atmospheric shot. Pair one of these with gold jewelry to really highlight and draw attention to the shade of your suit. Allow your skin tone to be your guide. You'll likely either prefer reds and peaches or greens and khakis.

These sets are a nod to the '50s and come in playful colors and prints. Madelaine Petsch even found a simple style with sleeves. Add quirky touches to this throwback silhouette to really master the vibe. (Think Shay Mitchell's pearl earrings or Emma Roberts's bow headband.)
