thanks Fab , I have a small bust and always had problems with picking my swimsuit

The bandeau terrifies me. Things like that have a tendency to slip off my small bust. Which, granted, DOES draw attention to the area, but...

What about bathing suits for women who would like to shrink their huge bum?

Yeah, I am definately looking fore a suit that will lift my chest-push up! Thanks

ahhh i love summer. Girl in swimsuits...hhehehehe. On serious note. That bandeau swimsuit is hot.

Last summer, or it might have been the summer before that one.. I was sooooo close to buying the same Shoshanna bikini Carmen's wearing. I so wish I got it now...it looks really good on her. I didn't get it because, the model on the website was kind of flat chested so, I couldn't tell if this suit would worked for me. Now, I see it would have. I should have bought it. I bet they don't even have it in stock anymore because, it's either one or two years old. Sorry, for my mini rant & it's more sadness..than a rant.

I also have a small bust, and this was helpful!!
There are some halter tops that are actually cute for ppl w/small busts. You just have to pick out the right pattern

what if i have small bust ... but hips and booty...

ohh i have the same problem as you, Any. I essentially have no bust but hips and bum i do have..sigh

cute pics!

thanks so much. will def. keep this in mind when shopping for my suit.

xoxo chelsduhh

I always wince to see something that says "flatters **every** shape and size" when all the photos show celebrities who are certainly not every size, and are not even close the size 12 of the "average" American woman.

It's a message to the rest of us who aren't celebrity skinny that our sizes are unacceptable. I don't buy it of course, but it still makes me angry to see it.

Yep, I"m a bandeau girl

Does anyone have a recommendation for a skinny girl with a big bust that isn't of the super-revealing variety? Buying swimsuits is such a nightmare!

does a string bikini with ruffles at the neck line help accentuate a small bust?

HistoryGeek913, actually the average size of the American woman is 14. and if some of these celebrities would stop starving themselves they would have a bust to speak of. I think a more well thought out article would have included a section on booty coverage instead of 2 sections on how to make their breasts bigger or more pronounced.

i find the article helpful, i have a small bust and i NEVER find a bikini that i like. im deffinetly trying bandeau

yeah i like that now people have what different bodys would wear and that helps people everywhere. yeah im glad u have something 2 hold up yourt chest. but do u have something 4 if u have jiggle thighs. i dont like comparing myself 2 others and with the size thing just
look and feel healthy and active in your life.

I hear ya about the small breasts. I have struggled for years to find the perfect bikini. With my small bust it was impossible to find the fit I liked. I saw this crochet bikini on a petite girl walking the beach last summer. I just loved the fit and then it dawned on me, learn to crochet. Now I collect patterns and make my own. I am able to make many variations and the colors are endless. It's a little trial and error, but I have found several that I really love. I turned a vision into a hobby I really love and can use. Now I lay out at the beach and model my creations.
