A Brief History of Swimwear

Swimsuits were first made in the mid 1800s – before this, people would either strip down to their underwear or bathe in the buff. The latter half of the 19th century saw women swim in loose, full-sleeved dresses or gowns with belts and pants made from flannel. This was so that women could safeguard their modesty and conceal most part of their bodies. At the beginning of the 20th century, realisation dawned that these heavy swimsuits were not very utilitarian, especially for swimming contests, both big (the Olympics) and small.

It was not until 1946 that Louis Reard, a French designer, designed the world’s first two-piece bikini and hired Micheline Bernardini, a showgirl from Paris, to model it. He had named the bikini after the Bikini Atoll, a headline-grabbing atomic test by the US. The bikini, due to its controversially minimalist design, was not very popular with the general public at first. However, big Hollywood stars like Ursula Andres, Brigitte Bardot, and others, took to it in a big way and were spotted in them often, thereby helping change this attitude. Today, there are many design variations of this beloved women’s swimwear, including the monokini, tankini, microkini, etc.

Bikini for Every Body Type

Everyone can look good in a bikini no matter what their body type – all you have to do is to pick the right design for yourself so you feel confident in your own skin. The following are a few tips to help look your best in a bikini:

1. Pear shape

Women with heavier hips must accentuate their bust with frilly, fringe bikini tops or halter necks. Two-tone sets with a brighter top would also work wonders for your figure. It is best to avoid wearing bottom wear in the style of boy shorts. If you feel the need for tummy-tucker bottoms, it is best to go ahead and opt for a pair.

2. Apple shape

If you are heavier around the shoulders or bust area, you have an apple-shaped body. Bikini tops with thick straps and underwired, non-padded cups will contour your shoulders, highlight décolletage and support your bust. Printed bottom wear will accentuate your slender legs and smaller hips. Avoid wearing swimwear with horizontal stripes or halter neck tops.

3. Hourglass shape

If you have an envious hourglass figure, then you are blessed as you can mix and match with different swimwear pieces. Flaunt your curves in supportive halter necks while steering clear of string tops.

4. Rectangle shape

If you crave volume both around the bust and hips, your body has a straight up and down silhouette with minimal curves, thereby making it resemble a rectangle. Floral prints, vibrant colours, bikini tops with lightly padded cups and bottom wear with ruching at the back will help draw attention to and play up the contours of your body.
