There’s been a lot of discussion recently online and on social media on whether it is “brave” for curvy women to wear a bikini on the beach. There also seems to be a trend for companies like SwimSuitsForAll to feature models in their swim wear without any photo shopping done. Aside from this debate, I’m just happy that there has been so much public discussion centered around curvy women lately!
Now that summer is in full bloom, I’d like to encourage everyone, regardless of your size, to experiment and seek out looks that will give you the confidence to enjoy your day in the sun.
Fashion is one of the few things in life we can control; it may not be easy and it may even be frustrating at times to find your look and style, but isn’t it worth exploring that part of yourself – especially if it can lead to self discovery and feeling good about yourself?
Here are some looks I’ve put together for you that I think is very flattering for a variety of body types. As always, I try to find looks within a range of prices and styles. I hope you’ll find something here that will make you feel great about yourself!

Feeling confident isn’t something that happens overnight. You have to take steps. The first step is knowing you are a beauty already. The second step is finding the fashion that makes you feel the party. The third step is realizing that you can feel this way every single day.

Your line is fantastic. You could of shown more plus size women. It is only one model that shows the meaning of curvy plus, the model in green swimsuit, she looks great. Good luck.
Thanks for your comment Marie! Since we create these looks from different retailers, we unfortunately don't have control over the models they use. We're really just trying to create looks from available plus size retailers out there and link directly to those retailers to save our readers time.
But I do agree with your point! We need to see more plus size models!
