Blog Article

Swimwear's "slimming effect" relies 90% on silhouette-body alignment. AICI studies prove: Visual proportion correction outweighs mere coverage.

► 5 Body-Type Solutions
1. Pear (Hips>Shoulders 5cm+)
- Must: Deep-V one-piece (elongates torso) + high-waist briefs (tames hips)
- Avoid: Low-rise ties (emphasizes width)
- Pro Tip: Cotton-spandex blends drape better than polyester

2. Apple (Waist≈Hips)
- Must: Laser-cut racing backs (redirects eyes) + swim skirts (covers thighs)
- Tech: Italian seamless construction + mesh panels slim waist by 23%

3. Hourglass (Shoulders=Hips)
- Square-neck bikinis showcase curves, 2cm+ straps prevent slippage
- Data: Wider straps increase support by 40%

4. Rectangle (H-shape)
- Ruffle tops + cheeky bottoms create illusions
- Vertical ribbed fabrics narrow the frame

5. Petite (<5'2")
- Monochromatic crop tops + ultra-high cuts (legs +15cm)
- Avoid: Horizontal colorblocks (shortens stature)

► Fabric Masterclass
- Slimming MVP: Dark polyester (chlorine-resistant, density>180g/㎡)
- Shape-Keeper: 18% Lycra® (50% better rebound)
- Fail-Alert: Light cotton turns sheer; unlined lace highlights bulges
