Now’s the time to go with what feels right: choose the fit you feel best in. Whether you’re walking on the sand, playing in the waves, or simply soaking up the sun, it all comes down to comfort and confidence. No need to overthink it—if it feels good, it’s the right one. |
Here, you want a swimsuit that moves with you—not one you’re constantly adjusting every two laps. Focus on support, secure straps (a racerback is your best friend), and a fit that stays in place when things get a bit more intense. A sporty one-piece or a well-fitted bikini is often a winning combo. |
When you’re active on the water, your swimsuit needs to keep up. Look for a secure fit and a cut that stays in place when you’re paddling, rowing, or getting back on your board. For extra sun protection and coverage, layer on a rashguard—it’s practical and adds a confident, outdoors-inspired look. |

Let’s be honest, no one wants to try on 14 swimsuits to find the right one. The solution? Take your measurements before you shop. All you need is a soft measuring tape and a mirror. Stand up straight, keep the tape flat (without pulling too tight!), and follow the steps below.
| Step 1 | Bust | Step 2 | Waist | Step 3 | Hips | Step 4 | Torso (especially for one-piece swimsuits) |

| Measure around the fullest part of your bust, running the tape under your arms and across your shoulder blades. Keep your arms relaxed at your sides and breathe normally. | Wrap the tape around the narrowest part of your waist, usually around your belly button. Keep the tape flat without digging into your skin. If you’re unsure where your waist is, bend slightly to the side—the natural crease is your reference point.art autour du nombril. Le ruban doit être bien à plat, sans creuser dans la peau. Si on ne trouve pas le point le plus étroit, on se penche légèrement sur le côté : le pli naturel, c'est notre repère. | With your feet together, measure around the widest part of your hips. It’s often a little lower than you think. | This is the measurement that makes all the difference when shopping for a one-piece. Start at your shoulder, run the tape down over your bust, through your legs, and back up to the same shoulder. This gives you the full length of the suit—key to avoiding a fit that’s too short or pulls. |
If you’re between two sizes, think about how you’ll be using your swimsuit. The more active you are, the more support matters. For relaxing by the pool or laid-back getaways, you can opt for a slightly more relaxed fit. In the end, the most important thing is feeling comfortable and confident.
Chlorine, saltwater, sunscreen… your swimsuit goes through a lot every time you wear it. The good news? A few easy habits can help it keep its shape, colour, and stretch for much longer.
After every swim, or as soon as you can, rinse your suit in cold water to remove any residue. For an extra refresh, use a mild soap. If your suit has ties or straps, loosen them first to prevent unnecessary strain on the fabric. Skip the washing machine, bleach, and fabric softeners—they can break down the fibres over time.
Never wring out your swimsuit. Instead, lay it flat on a clean towel, roll it up, and gently press to absorb excess water. And don’t leave it damp in a plastic bag, this can quickly lead to mildew and unpleasant odours.
Lay your swimsuit flat to dry, away from direct sunlight. Hanging it can stretch the fabric, and sun exposure can fade the colours. Avoid the dryer as well—heat is the biggest enemy of elasticity.
