If your curves have been stopping you from hitting the stores to buy a brand-new swimsuit to show off this Summer, it's time to get out of your head! Your womanly and sexy body [1] is meant to be embraced, and there's no better time than the hot season to do just that.
Straight ahead, you'll find shopping suggestions for swimsuits (one-pieces and bikinis) featuring ruching around the waist and hips — the most flattering style for your body proportions [2] — to guarantee you look banging making your way down the sandy beach [3] or lounging poolside with a great book [4]. Happy shopping, and happy Summer!
