How to take your measurements
Measure your bust
Place the tape around the fullest part of your bust while keeping your arms relaxed.
Measure your waist
Place the tape around the narrowest part of your natural waist, without sucking in your stomach.
Measure your hips
Keep your feet together and measure the fullest part of your hips and buttocks.
Measure your torso length
Starting at one shoulder, pass the tape over the bust, between the legs, and back up to the starting point.

Choosing by style
One-piece swimsuit
Compare your bust, waist, hips, and torso length. Choose the size that corresponds to your largest measurement.
C-cup swimsuit
Choose this cut if you need moderate room at the bust and your measurements match the C chart.
D-cup swimsuit
Choose this cut for more room, coverage, and support at the bust.
Swimsuit for lap swimming
The style should fit close to the body to minimize fabric movement in the water, without restricting the shoulders.
Shaping style
The fabric should smooth the silhouette without compressing, rolling, or restricting breathing.
Swim dress
Use your bust and hip measurements. The skirt should fall naturally without pulling at the hips.
Tankini
Choose the top according to your bust and the bottom according to your hip measurement.
Long torso style
Check the torso length. A style that is too short may pull on the shoulders or ride up in the crotch area.
How to recognize a good fit
At the bust
The bust should be covered and supported without spilling over or leaving gaps.
At the shoulders
The straps should remain comfortable without pulling, sliding, or digging into the skin.
At the waist
The fabric should stay in place without rolling or restricting breathing.
At the crotch
The swimsuit should neither ride up nor pull. Tension here can indicate the torso is too short.
