In this blog post we show you which bikini bottoms flatter your body and why high waist bikini bottoms are still so popular.

First of all, we would like to stress that in our opinion there are no "problem areas". Every woman should wear what she enjoys and what she feels comfortable in.

Every figure is a bikini figure!

Often we are too hard on ourselves and want to feel comfortable in our swimwear and conceal any areas that we find particularly problematic. That's why we've put together a few tips for you on what to look out for when buying bikini bottoms or a swimsuit.

These bikini bottoms make a beautiful butt

Generally, it is assumed that the more the bikini bottoms cover the bottom, the better the shape of the bottom. However, this is not true. Tight bikini bottoms accentuate the bottom in exactly the right places.

Our bikini bottoms Blush , Keira , Alice and our backless swimsuit Divine are absolute figure boosters! The cheeky fabric triangle lifts the bottom optically in the crucial places and makes it look firmer. If this triangle is gathered like the Blush Bottom, the effect is even more pronounced.

These bikini bottoms conjure up slim legs

Bikini bottoms and swimsuits with high leg cuts are particularly advantageous for people with strong thighs. The high leg cut visually lengthens the legs and makes them look slimmer. Avoid bright colors and eye-catching patterns for the bikini bottoms. Instead, set accents on the top with strong colors and patterns. Our bikini bottoms with high leg cuts are the Ember , Alice and the Gem .

High waist bikini bottoms – as popular as ever!

High waist bikini bottoms have been very popular for a few years now and we think rightly so! They offer a flattering fit, extra comfort and fashionable retro style, making them a popular choice for many women.

The growing movement towards body positivity and self-acceptance has led to women choosing swimwear that embraces and enhances their bodies rather than hiding them.

Here are some advantages of high waist bikini bottoms for women

Tummy control and coverage: High waist bikini bottoms offer more coverage in the tummy area, which gives many women a sense of security and comfort. They can flatten the tummy and create a slimmer silhouette

Emphasis on the waist: The higher cut accentuates the waist, creating a feminine and flattering hourglass shape. This cut can make the waist appear optically narrower and accentuate the curves.

Retro and vintage style: The high waist style is reminiscent of 1950s fashion and has a charming, retro-inspired look.

Comfort and Support: High waist bikini bottoms provide more support and are comfortable to wear. They stay in place, especially during activities such as surfing, swimming or beach games.

Versatility: High-waist bikini bottoms can be combined well with different bikini tops, allowing for a variety of looks. They can be styled both sporty and elegant, depending on the design and material

Confidence: Many women feel more confident in a high-waisted bikini because they can conceal problem areas. The additional piece of fabric in the stomach area can make you feel more confident, which contributes to more relaxation and fun at the beach or pool.
