There are actually many swimsuit styles that are made specifically to look amazing on those with smaller breasts, no matter what style you’re into right now. Generally, opting for a bikini that comes with padding or underwire will add more lift if that’s what you’re looking for, while more daring styles—like suits that are covered in cutouts or options with a one-shoulder design—are guaranteed to highlight your natural cup size to perfection. In fact, you’re some of the only ones who can pull ’em off!

Simple string bikinis, for instance, are super on-trend right now and they look fab on you precisely because you don’t necessarily always need a ton of support. Whether you’re seeking a family-friendly one-piece that flatters and stays put or a super-skimpy vacay ‘kini to flex in on the ‘Gram, I promise the suit you seek is on the list below.

Ready to shop? Read on to see ten of the best swimsuits for smaller busts. You’re going to look so good.

How to Find the Right Fit, According to a Stylist

According to StyleCaster writer and stylist Samantha Sutton, “First, you’ll need to determine which look you’re aiming for with your swimsuit.”

You can ask yourself a few questions to figure it out. “Do you just want something that fits? Go for a triangle bikini top with minimal padding, which will flatter that area without overwhelming you. If you’re trying to enhance your bust, say yes to padding and also opt for underwire, which will provide support,” she says.

What Swimsuit Styles Are Best for Small Busts?

“Halter tops are one of the best swimsuit styles for small busts,” explains Sutton. “With a tie on top and one in the back, you can pull them as tight or as loose as you like, essentially customizing your fit. They’ll also help to lift the bust, which is an especially good thing if cleavage is the goal.”
