These Are The Best Swimsuit Styles for Small Busts

A small chest can be both a blessing or a curse when shopping for swimsuits. Sometimes it can be difficult to find the right fit and flattering look. But we’re all about self-love and body positivity, so you won’t find any little boob bashing here.

This is your reminder that even a small breast can work in your favor. Even though smaller cups can be bolder styles, they might not be able to support our larger-breasted friends. When there’s less to work with, there’s less to worry about, so embrace the fact that you can experiment with different cuts and designs. Still, it’s good to know which styles are most suitable for your size and shape. Prints, padding, padding and embellishments such as ruffles can all enhance cup sizes B and below. Anything with underwire will also give you some lift. However, there are many styles to choose from. One-pieces, tankinis, push-up bikini tops—you can make anything work if you know what to look for. Below are 22 of our top picks.
