Figure flaw: Full legs and thighs

Suit fix: A tankini with a printed top and solid-colored bottom will help to keep the focus on your upper half, where you want it most. And if you’re feeling extra confident, try a plunging V-neckline. Drawing attention to the skin on your neck, chest and shoulders is the easiest way to balance out a pear-shaped frame.

Stay away from: Skirted suits and boy shorts that look like they’ll give you more coverage, but usually cut across the widest part of your leg and accentuate a heavier lower half.
