How should a bathing suit top fit?

A well-fitting bathing suit top should feel snug but not tight, and it should stay in place when you move around so that you do not reveal unwanted areas of the body. The adjustable bands should be comfortable and secure, and the bust area should provide support without being too constricting.

If you're unsure about your size, it's always best to err on the side of caution and go up a size rather than down. You can constantly adjust the straps or ties to get a more customized fit. Use a measuring tape to measure your bust. The tape should be level and snug around your skin, not too tight or loose.

Tips on finding the right bathing suit top size

Go a size higher or use the brand's size chart.

If you're between sizes and not sure about the right size, choose the larger size. Wearing a bigger bathing suit is better than dealing with the discomfort of one that is too tight on your breasts.

Check the size chart for the specific brand or style of bathing suit top you're interested in. Some brands do not use the universal sizing chart, so going by the universal size might be misleading. Check their size chart to find the ideal size for you. Pay attention to the return policy if you need to exchange or return the top.

Put on the bathing suit.

Put it on properly (over your head, not stepping into it like a pair of shorts). Adjust the straps and ties for a comfortable, secure fit around the breasts. Move around to make sure it stays in place and feels comfortable on your skin.

If you're not sure if a bathing suit top fits, ask a friend or family member for their opinion. And remember, you can always return or exchange it if it doesn't work out!
