One Piece Swimwear vs. Bikinis: Which Should You Buy?
Shopping for a swimsuit can be slightly overwhelming, especially as each one has its unique appeal, different styles, levels of coverage, and comfort. Deciding on which is best suited for a day at the beach, engaging in water activities, or simply lounging by the pool is a decision based on which type of swimwear makes you feel confident. The fashion enthusiasts at Lu-May Exclusive Wear will break down the basic differences between one piece swimwear and a bikini, so that when you are ready to take the plunge, you know that you have found a swimsuit that is practical and flattering.
One Piece Swimwear Flatters Every Figure
With fashion trends seeing a resurgence of classic one piece swimwear paying tribute to natural curves and embracing eye-catching colours and patterns, here are a few reasons why you might opt for one:
- More Coverage and Support
If you prefer extra coverage and support, a one-piece is the better option. They give you a streamlined look while offering support, making them an excellent choice if you want a costume that feels comfortably secure on your body, like our Mykonos V Shape One Piece Swimsuit.
- Perfect for Water Activities
The last thing you need while partaking in a game of pool volleyball or water skiing is to have your bathing suit shift, exposing more than it should. Full costumes stay in place and allow for unrestricted movement. There’s no need to worry about swimsuit malfunctions when diving into the water or running along the shore.
- Versatile and Elegant
A one-piece can double as a bodysuit, making it incredibly versatile. Pair it with shorts, a skirt, or flowy pants, and you have an instant beach-to-dinner outfit. Our swimsuit collection features chic cutouts such as our Kiss on the Lips Cutout One Piece, flattering necklines, and high leg cuts, to name a few, proving that they can be just as stylish as bikinis.
- Flattering for All Body Types
It doesn’t matter if your body is pear- or apple-shaped; a well-fitted full costume can enhance your curves and emphasise your flattering features. Our vast selection incorporates tummy control features, ruched fabric, and sculpting panels, giving any silhouette confidence. Our Little Italy Ruched Bust One Piece Green Swimsuit is a perfect example of how one piece swimwear can enhance your figure while still looking elegant.
One piece swimwear is a timeless classic for a reason: it looks amazing on everyone while incorporating all the glamorous, elegant, and funky trends.
The Case for Bikinis
The slightly flirtatious and cheeky bikini is still as popular as when it was first manufactured in the late 1940s. Available in countless designs, they allow for more personalisation and creativity. Here is why a bikini might be the better choice for you:
- Mix and Match Possibilities
Possibly considered the biggest advantage of bikinis is the ability to mix and match tops and bottoms. You can create different looks by pairing different colours, patterns, and styles to express your personality.
- More Skin, More Sun
If you prefer spending summer days soaking up the sun, then a bikini is just for you. Classic triangle cuts like our Madrid Push Up Bikini Coral and halter-neck-styled tops with high-leg bikini bottoms give you fewer tan lines and an even sun-kissed glow.
- Enhancing Curves and Confidence
The age-old idiom, “If you’ve got it, flaunt it”, is ideal for those with mounds of body confidence, as nothing flaunts your beautiful curves more than a stylish bikini. Look for shape-enhancing features such as underwire support; make sure that the top of your bikini balances out your hips and that the top fits perfectly.
