Speaking of breasts, a note to all small-framed women who've got beef with their bust size: don't get irked; get Ipex. The "revolutionary bra" from Victoria's Secret has made the leap to swimwear with its' completely seamless and weightless cup that promises minimal padding. It lifts and shapes with no see-through, which means water poses no threat.

Another option is a suit with a halter-top. Not only are halter straps flattering to the shoulders, but the silhouette makes a beeline from the neck to the chest, drawing attention therein. J.Crew's super sweet polka dot halter is a trendy way to accessorize a woman's two main assets.

When it comes to slimming the thighs, the trick is one part coverage, one part cut. Theoretically, details like drawstring sides on a string bikini shouldn't ornament a less-than-perfect hip, but in reality, the ruching effect created by drawstrings on a wider bottom is fashionable and flattering.
