The floral one really gives you a snatched waist. The stripey one is cute, my only bug bear with stripes is that they make our folds way more noticeable - if that doesn’t bother you (I have a complex about my own 🤣) then they both look really nice, I love the high waist, they both look cute without being too boring and covered up!

The black and white one seems to give you bit more support but the colour of the floral one is better with your skin colour. On the floral one, the placement of the red flowers on the top is a little unfortunate. 😬

I think you could find swim wear that looks better so I would try some different ones if I were you.

Oh god yes, I’ve just seen where the red flowers are on the top. 😅

I also think something with more support would be better OP.

You look great. The flowery one is especially nice.

Ohthatsabitshit · 02/04/2026 16:04

I prefer the stripes because I don’t like the flower on each nipples look BUT you look lovely in them.

Oh god - same!!

Maybe not that particular flowery one OP...

PunishmentRoundupWithJoon · 02/04/2026 16:08

You look fab in both of them. You have a great shape. I'd be chuffed if I looked that in a two piece!

Catlady007007 · 02/04/2026 16:09

The flowery one is very nice on you OP.

ETA Horizontal stripes aren't flattering in the stomach area for most of us unfortunately.

PinterandPirandello · 02/04/2026 16:09

I think you’d look better in a one piece but if you don’t want to get another costume then the flowery one.

cantthinkofagoodusername1 · 02/04/2026 16:11

You look really nice. If I had to choose one, I'd choose the floral one.

Newsenmum · 02/04/2026 16:12

I love the first ones. Gorgeous.

Artything · 02/04/2026 16:12

1st is perfect <3

WhyArePiratesCalledPirates · 02/04/2026 16:12

Love love love

Drop a link!!!! They are fab and look fab on you!

I disagree and think two pieces make you look more even.

Sometimes, one pieces can make a big middle look even bigger, imo.

Justbreathagain · 02/04/2026 16:17

I think you look nice x

They look great but if you don’t feel like you look good at home then you will feel worse once out of the house.

Not necessarily. Once you’re at the beach/ pool side and see all the other people in their swimming costumes and the weather is really hot you relax and stop caring too much.

Blueyrocks · 02/04/2026 16:20

You look great, especially in the flowery one.

That's what I always find.

I feel self conscious about how I look in a swimming costume as overweight. But there are always people fatter than me living their best life at the beach or pool not giving two shits and so I stop caring as soon as I'm out too.

WonderingWanda · 02/04/2026 16:22

I think they are really nice and suit you shape wise but not sure either goes with your skin tone, that could be solved with some fake tan.

Ilovelurchers · 02/04/2026 16:24

You look good - you have a good figure, and most shapes of swimwear would look good on you I think.

I have a similar figure, and the type that I feel suits me best is a one piece, a little lower cut at the top than yours, and slightly longer in the leg if that makes sense?

But it's important to wear what you feel most comfortable in. You certainly look good in those and have nothing to worry about!

OriginalUsername2 · 02/04/2026 16:25

Love them both, especially the flowery one.

Aluna · 02/04/2026 16:26

Personally I think a one piece would be much more flattering.

Optimistic252 · 02/04/2026 16:27

no , you look marvelous. Don't over think

I agree! Whereas with a two piece you are embracing your curves.
