The Most Flattering Bikinis For Every Body Type

Play with proportions when it comes to a pear shape frame. Consider a bottom with a little more coverage, while keeping your top on the skimpier side of the spectrum. We love styles that are reminiscent of the '40s and '50s for a fun and flirty retro nod.
