Padded Bikini

Padded Bikinis

For women with smaller bust sizes, shopping for a hot new bikini can be a road paved with fashion pitfalls. Never fear, if you wear a small-bust bikini size, we can help you find the right style for you. Here are our best tips for choosing a padded bikini to enhance and accentuate your bust and help you look your gorgeous on the beach or by the pool.

How to Choose the Right Padded Bikini

Choose bikini styles which have moulded cups. The thin foam lining of moulded cup bras creates a padded bikini effect, adding size to your bust and creating a smooth, rounded shape.

Look out for a padded bikini style which also features an under-wire. Although under-wires are not usually an essential for small-busted women, for a padded bikini, they are a good idea. This is because an under-wire can help to keep your padded bikini top in the correct position and prevent embarrassing wardrobe malfunctions.

As an alternative to choosing a padded bikini with an under-wire, look for a design which incorporates a wide band around the rib-cage and back. In addition to being very comfortable, this will do the same job as an under-wire and stop your padded bikini from riding up.

Women who have small breasts should avoid any bikini which is un-padded, particularly the triangle style bikini, which can make you look flat-chested. Bandeau style bikinis should also be worn with caution, unless they are structured enough to give your bust some boost.

When shopping for a padded bikini top, try designs which feature foam or gel inserts in the cups. These can add fullness and roundness to your breasts, for an improved silhouette and cleavage. Halter-neck padded bikini tops are excellent for small-busted women, as they push the breasts inwards and upwards for a sexy, uplifted shape.

Padded Bikini Trims and Detail

Choose a padded bikini top which emphasises your bust details such as gathering, ruching, fringing and sequins draw people's attention to your breasts and accentuate them. Remember, bright colours catch the eye, while dark colours recede, so make the most of your small beautiful bust with a padded bikini in vibrant, juicy tones.

If you want to get the best effects from your padded bikini top, be sure to measure your size accurately before purchasing as a padded bikini which hangs loosely or constricts your breasts is neither flattering nor sexy. Where possible choose a padded bikini top which has adjustable shoulder straps, as this will help you to get a great fit.
