However, with the various types of swimwear available today, it can get confusing when choosing the right one for your body, so we have listed four essential tips to help you choose the perfect swimsuit.

45% of people are victims of not finding the right swimwear fit for their bodies. Sometimes what looks good on a hanger might look awkward on the body. Before buying any swimwear, make sure you try it on your body.
Measure your bust, waist and hips to find a swimwear that fits perfectly and, most importantly, complements your body type.
