Most of my clients wear one piece suits and tankinis. Our
go-to places to shop for them are Nordstrom, Lands End and Bare Necessities.
Here’s a roundup of one piece suits from Nordstrom that have been winners this
season.
Seafolly Harlow
Boyleg One Piece Swimsuit: I am in love with this br
and of swimwear, which I
believe is from Australia. If I needed a new one piece, this would be it. It
has excellent coverage and support. It works well on a small and regular size
bust line.
Bleu Rod Beattie
Zip It One Piece Swimsuit: So fabulously ’80s! Glam and sporty. It has good
support, but not stellar support. And you have to be at peace with “uni-boob”.
A flattering shape, and one I would consider myself if I was not smitten with
the retro vibe of the above suit.
Trina Turk Summer
of Love One Piece Swimsuit: This one offers great support for the small busted
gal. Happy, alluring, and comfortable.
Miraclesuit
Sanibel One Piece Swimsuit: This suit continues to be fabulous on those who
want LOTS of support on the bust and midsection. It does not work well on small
busted ladies. You have to be able to fill out this suit to make it work.
Profile by Gottex
Tutti Frutti Skirted One Piece Swim Dress: This has been the best suit of the
year on my regular and small busted clients. It has a strap, but they did not
show it in the photo. I am impressed with the “Profile” collection from Gottex
and look forward to seeing more amazingly cut swimwear from this Israeli brand.
Miraclesuit Rialto
One Piece: It’s very flattering. Girdled, streamlined and comfortable. I wish
we had more colour options though.
La Blanca
Sweetheart One Piece: This style continues to be a winner. It looks best on
ladies who can fill out the bust and hips. It has worked on a smaller bust with
a very broad shoulder line, but generally, I would not recommend this style to
a small busted gal. Halter style suits are better for a small chest.
Remember that you must size up at least one size in
swimwear. I have clients who have sized up two sizes on Miraclesuits for extra
length, and because they are very formfitting. Furthermore, you can have
swimwear altered to fit. So if the straps are a little long, or you need to
have extra support sewn into the cups, it’s a worthwhile investment for a
quality suit.
