A Guide to Navigating Lands' End Swimsuit Sizes
We are smack-dab in the middle of summer, so it's time to get out those swimsuits and hit the beach—pronto! If you're like most people, you've probably been running through multiple swimsuit sizes for the past few years. This can make it harder to find a swimsuit that fits perfectly. Worry not if this sounds like your predicament; Lands' End is here to help! This guide on navigating swimsuit sizes will help you find a perfect swimsuit size for ultimate summer fun.
Measure Your Swimsuit Size
Lands' End boasts a wide array of swimsuits for all body types and sizes. When shopping for one, find the right size that fits you perfectly. But just how can you tell your swimsuit size? Use a measuring tape to measure around the fullest part of your bust to get your bra size. Next, measure around the slimmest part of your torso to get your waist size. And finally, measure around the fullest part of your hips to know your hip size. When measuring your hip size, be careful not to measure your thighs. They are not part of your hips. Write down all your measurements in a notebook or on your phone. This saves you the hassle of taking measurements whenever you need a new swimsuit.
Understand Your Body Shape
Understanding your body shape helps you get the perfect swimwear. Take a look at some of the most common body shapes so you can figure out where you fit. People with an hourglass body shape have a well-defined waist with balanced shoulders, while those with a triangle shape have narrow shoulders, a less defined bust, and full hips. If you have an inverted triangle body shape, your shoulders are broad, your hips are narrow, and your bust is well-defined. People with a diamond figure have a wide waist, balanced hips, and shoulders. And lastly, anyone with a rectangle body shape has broad shoulders with an equally wide waist.
Get Familiar With Swimsuit Sizes to Help Find Your Size
Land's End boasts different swimsuit sizes to fit all women, regardless of their size. We classify our swimsuit sizes into three main categories: petite, regular, and tall. Petite swimsuits are for petite women with heights ranging from 4'11" to 5'3". Regular swimsuits fit women of all body shapes. They are generally the best option for women between 5'4" and 5'7" in height. Tall swimsuits are the ideal choice for women between 5'8" and 6'. Lands' End also carries trendy plus-size swimsuits for full-figured women of all body shapes.
Don't Overlook Style
There is no one right way to dress for the beach or pool. You can pick from a variety of swimwear styles and adapt them to your specific needs, whether you need coverage for breasts, backside, or both. Consider what activities you'll be doing and find swimsuits that protect you from the sun and chlorine while allowing freedom of movement. Explore these Lands' End swimsuits and find something that you look and feel fabulous wearing.
Explore All Your Size and Style Options
One-piece swimsuits cover the entire torso area, giving you excellent coverage and support. These swimsuits' unique necklines and shoulder straps make them a highly fashionable choice. One-piece swimsuits are best for women with inverted triangle and triangle body shapes. If you want extra coverage, check out women's cover-ups that are ideal for added sun protection and style.
Another option is the tankini, a two-piece swimsuit covering the stomach region, like tank tops. You can wear tankinis with matching top and bottom sets or mix and match different colors and prints. They are perfect for plus-size women, petite women, tall women, and women shopping for regular sizes. These bikini tops provide full coverage by covering your bust and tummy areas, making them great family swimwear option.
Crop tops, like tankinis, have a bit more coverage than bikini tops. They cover the region below your neckline to the bottom of your rib cage, giving you an hourglass shape. They come in different styles and designs, so you never lack options! You can't go hit-or-miss with Lands' End swimsuit bottoms. They fit perfectly and have an elastic fabric that prevents them from slipping away while swimming. Lands' End lets you try on as many bottoms as you want until you find the perfect pair.
