L Bikinis

Here are some suggestions:

• Nylon is great for stretching and quick drying. But it's not so durable, so it's best for sunbathing or swimming in a lake. Avoid wearing it in chlorine pools.

• Lycra/spandex is stretchy and tight-fitting. Like nylon, it’s sensitive to chlorine, so it's better suited for sunbathing or swimming in the sea.

• Polyester is not as stretchy as the other two materials. It's durable and can handle chlorine, making it perfect for the pool, lake and sea.

When shopping for a bikini, it's important to get the right size for a comfortable fit. Measure yourself around the widest part of the bust and refer to the size chart.

The top should fit snugly without digging into your skin or causing a bra bulge. Go for the smaller size if you're between two sizes, as bikinis tend to stretch about half a size.

A triangle bikini is adjustable with straps that tie around the back and neck. But it can be uncomfortable for those with a larger bust. as the straps can cut into the skin. If you need more support, a halterneck bikini with wider straps is a great option.
