Swimsuit Sizing: How to Find the Perfect Fit
Measuring for One-Piece Swimsuits
To determine your one-piece swimsuit size, use the following measurement chart:
- Bust: Measure around the fullest part of your bust, keeping the tape measure parallel to the floor.
- Waist: Measure around your natural waistline, where your body bends at the sides.
- Hips: Measure around the fullest part of your hips.
- Torso: Measure from the top of your shoulder, over your bust, and down to the bottom of your rib cage.
Measuring for Women's Separates (Board Shorts, Tankinis)
Use the following measurement chart to find your size for women's separates such as board shorts and tankinis:
- Waist: Measure around your natural waistline.
- Hips: Measure around the fullest part of your hips.
- Tops: Refer to the manufacturer's size chart for specific measurements.
- Bottoms: Measure your waist and hips, and order the size that corresponds to your waist measurement if you are on the borderline between two sizes.
Tips for Measuring
- Take your measurements standing up and wearing minimal clothing.
- Use a soft tape measure that doesn't stretch or shrink.
- Keep the tape measure parallel to the floor and snug, but not too tight.
- If you are between sizes, order the smaller size for a snug fit or the larger size for a looser fit.
By following these instructions, you can ensure that you find the perfect swimsuit that fits comfortably and flatters your figure.
