Which swimsuits to choose according to your body shape?

The X shape — recognizable by its defined waist and harmonious alignment of shoulders and hips — embodies, for many experts, the ideal silhouette. Its main advantage? Almost absolute freedom.

Sporty bralette, vibrant bandeau, push-up bra, high-waisted panties, or delicately laced thong at the hips: this silhouette can wear it all. Each cut accentuates its natural harmony and complements its lines without ever constraining them.

The only golden rule: do not overload the bust, at the risk of disrupting the perfect balance of its proportions.

For a more contemporary look, the one-piece swimsuit stands out as the ideal ally. Minimalist or sculptural, it is available at SAISON 1865 with the model Carla, as well as in the bold collections from Rick Owens or under the sensual elegance of the brand Livia.

Athletic and sculptural, the V-shape is characterized by pronounced shoulders and a slim waist. To enhance it, opt for cuts that highlight the neckline — ideally in a V shape — and draw the eye upward.

On the bottom, a low rise balances the silhouette and lightens the line, like the Wakomadia Solan model from Banana Moon. Another equally desirable option: high-waisted panties, perfect for infusing a retro chic vibe, like the Baby model from SAISON 1865.

The trick to feminize and rebalance the whole look? Create volume at the hips and rear. A slightly cut-out bottom, enhanced with ruffles, adds just the right amount of curves to elegantly harmonize the silhouette.

Narrow shoulders, defined waist, voluptuous hips: the A-line silhouette, the most common, charms with its naturally feminine look. To balance it out, it's all about proportions: the goal is to add volume to the upper body to harmonize the whole.

The must-have? Opt for tops with bold necklines — delicate gathers, airy ruffles, oversized couture bows — that structure the bust and add volume where it's needed. Our favorites? The floral model by Zimmermann or the ultra-desirable leopard one-piece from Balmain, perfect for catching the light and attention.

Below, embrace simplicity: sharp cuts, subtly scooped, that elongate the silhouette and lengthen the leg without weighing down the hips. There's no need to hide your curves under overly covering lines — they might actually freeze them. The idea? To complement them, with precision and modernity.

Finally, a H silhouette — shoulders and hips aligned, with a subtly defined waist — the idea is to create dimension and suggest curves with finesse. We focus on swimsuits that structure and femininize: a belted one-piece that redefines the line, a high-waisted bikini to shape the hips, or a ruffled top with a cut-out bottom to energize the look.

Graphic cut-outs sculpt the silhouette, draping creates movement, bold prints capture the light: this season, the swimsuit becomes a style manifesto. True allies of allure, these details master the art of drawing the eye where you choose, while infusing rhythm into the lines.

To find the perfect piece, head to Calarena or Janine Robin, two brands that combine expertise in swimwear with a keen sense of cut.
