I am small chested, so I also love being able to buy the pieces separately. JCrew has really solid quality tops and bottoms that frequently go on sale. <br />For some reason I am thinking a halter style would add visual length to your torso -- and possibly have better support? </p> <p> </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/swimsuit-for-my-body-type#post-1223845 Tue, 15 Apr 2014 17:34:21 +0000 Anonymous 1223845@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>I saw your other post and the consideration that&nbsp;you think you're a rectangle. I'm a rectangle but taller - &nbsp;and&nbsp;I find one piece and tankinis both work well. </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/swimsuit-for-my-body-type#post-1223820 Tue, 15 Apr 2014 17:04:06 +0000 Laura J 1223820@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>Hi! &nbsp;I can help with the large bust aspect of your question. &nbsp;I'm 5'1" and a 34DD, so I can tell you no matter what the cut of the suit I'm more comfortable if there is sufficient support. &nbsp;Shoshanna brand swimwear is good for small band/large cup girls. &nbsp;However, at my height I could never get one of her one pieces to work for me because of the torso length. &nbsp;but they are certainly worth a try and sometimes you can get a great deal on brand new past season suits on ebay. &nbsp;I've found both her PS/DD and M/DD sizes work for me in the tops. &nbsp;I also have a shirred one piece in a fantastic print from Coco Rave that has held up for years. &nbsp;They sell their swimsuits by cup size and the prints are fun and not "old." &nbsp;I hope this helps! </p> https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/topic/swimsuit-for-my-body-type#post-1223804 Tue, 15 Apr 2014 16:42:06 +0000 Danielle 1223804@https://youlookfab.com/welookfab/ <p>What swimsuits are best for rectangle body types? I'm not a tall rectangle, only 5 feet and my torso is shorter than my legs. I would like something that could possible elongate my torso. I also have a semi-large bust (not flat, but not huge)&nbsp;so maybe something with support. I'm looking for bikinis or one piece or tankinis! I like prints, not solids too much.. I also like things with unique designs or patterns.&nbsp;Also, I'm 21 so something that wouldn't make me look like an older woman. lol </p>
