Tummy concealing: You're built a little more like an apple shape and carry your weight mostly in your middle. What to look for: Whether you prefer to be covered up or you're out to slim your middle, there are a number of one-piece and two-piece suits, like high-waisted or tankini styles, that help to smooth out your middle. Tips and tricks: Shirring works miracles. The gathered fabric hides bulges and creates definition in the waist. A figure-flattering surplice-wrap silhouette trims the waist with its crossover fabric. If you carry your weight in the lower part of your belly, try on a retro-inspired, high-waisted suit. They're on trend and ace for covering the abdomen.
