Swim Top Buying Guide: How to Choose the Right Fit

Quick answer

The best swim top for you depends on your bust size and preferred coverage. For C cup and larger, look for underwire and double lining. For smaller busts, a triangle or bandeau style often works well.

How to choose your swim top

• Check your bust size: Measure your bust and compare to the brand's size chart. If you're C cup or larger, look for underwire and double lining. If you're smaller, a triangle or bandeau style may work.
• Look for adjustability: Adjustable straps, ties, and cups let you fine-tune the fit. Tie backs are common and allow you to tighten or loosen the top as needed.
• Consider coverage and style: Decide how much coverage you want. A triangle top offers minimal coverage, while a bandeau can be worn as a flat bandeau or with a cowl neck for more coverage. Check the product photos and model info to see how the top fits on different body types.
