What swimsuits athletes choose: 10 different models on perfect bodies

The vacation season is in full swing. And so are the athletes. Even with busy schedules – between tournaments, master classes and performances – they find time to bask in the sun. This means that we have the opportunity to see how trendy swimsuit models fit sports figures.

a stylist, a specialist in body types and coloring.

Even when the body is toned, clothes should adorn it and bring out the beauty of the face. This can be achieved when the lines, shapes, textures and colors of things correspond to the type of appearance, and the style and details on the products favorably emphasize the figure. I propose to analyze the preferences of sportswomen and replenish your piggy bank of fashionable lifehacks

Alexandra Soldatova, gymnast

The gymnast chose a universal model of a leotard, which will suit girls with different types of figure. Color is at the peak of popularity. This season all shades of pink are in trend. Partly thanks to the premiere of the movie “Barbie” starring Margot Robbie and Ryan Gosling.

As for the fabric, due to the pronounced loose texture, the product looks beautiful on women with a soft appearance. How does it manifest itself? Full lips, wide nose with a rounded tip, set eyes (wide-set). In this type (“Natural” according to Dwin Larson), all features generally tend away from the central axis. The textured and rough material emphasizes the sensuality of this appearance.

Evgenia Medvedeva, figure skater

The standard bikini also suits most women. On this model there is an interesting effect of “degrade” – a gradual fading of color, a smooth overflow of one shade into another. Fading from the contour to the center of the bodice helps to make the chest more voluminous.

Victoria Sinitsina, figure skater

Bright yellow color looks beautiful on tanned skin. However, it is not for everyone. It is a “warm” color. If your natural coloring is “cold”, you will be more suitable for the corresponding shades. If you choose this yellow, your face may look unhealthy. Those who are not sure of their coloring, it is better to be cautious with this color. You should also be wary of orange.

As for this form of bodice, dense fabric and such a cut can reduce the chest, make it flatter. Thin straps visually expand the shoulders. They are not recommended if you want to look more elegant. Swimwear with an exaggerated V-shaped fit lengthens the legs and “lightens the hips”. This style is suitable for those who need to correct the figure from below.

Yana Kudryavtseva, gymnast

Wide straps on this bodice create a vertical in the area of the shoulders, which visually narrows them. Horizontal dynamic lines in the neckline add volume to the chest. As for the color, it should match the color of the appearance to most fully reveal it. Black color adorns searing brunettes and looks less successful on blondes.

Margarita Mamun, gymnast

A leotard top with string straps broadens the shoulders. It doesn’t suit everyone. But the textured material and clear horizontal contours of the bodice visually enlarge the chest. Velour was especially popular in the noughties, but returned to fashion in 2021. By the way, it is quite practical and wear-resistant material.

Yulia Efimova, swimmer

Trendy model with a non-standard neckline in the most fashionable color for this summer – Love Bird. Looks stylish due to the peculiarities of the style. High-fitting swimwear with a V-shaped neckline always elongates the legs and reduces the volume of the hips, easing the heavy bottom of the figure.

Elizaveta Tuktamysheva, figure skater

The wide straps of the top “divide” the shoulders, making them appear smaller. The cut in the form of a rectangular piece of material with horizontal lines in the chest area visually adds volume to this area.

As for the bottom of the swimsuit, here we see a basic version of swim trunks. It can be combined with different bodices. This is a great opportunity to create new beach looks, changing only one detail.

Daria Klishina, long jumper

An interesting model with a trendy cut. However, a swimsuit, like other clothes, should decorate not only the figure, but also the face, and this option is not suitable for every type of appearance.

It will look good on girls with small, delicate aquarelle features. Usually in this type they are gathered to the center of the face (“Romantic” by Dwin Larson). If you have a different type of appearance, there is a risk that the swimsuit will not look organic, and the image will suffer.

Diagonal cutouts in the area of the chest and waist, as well as a strap on one shoulder visually reduce the volume in these places. Ruches, on the contrary, expand and fullen.

A monochrome minimalist swimsuit with this style would make the silhouette slimmer. Here, because of the small print and details, we cannot fully appreciate the shape and figure.

Veronika Kudermetova, tennis player

This swimsuit is suitable for owners of cold and dark color of appearance. What are its markers? Hair, eyebrows and eyes here will be very dark – black. On a lighter appearance, such a swimsuit will emphasize skin imperfections, highlight wrinkles and circles under the eyes.

By the way, in this photo we immediately see how you can adapt the swimsuit, which does not fit the coloring. This will help to do dark glasses and a black cap. They seem to connect (coordinate) the coloring with the coloring of the swimsuit.

Adelina Sotnikova, figure skater

Not the most successful swimsuit model. The contrasting wide braid works against the appearance here, neighboring with muted black color and smooth surface of the bodice. Located under the bust, it visually expands the chest and at the same time reduces the volume of dignity in this area.

With thin, barely noticeable straps, the shoulders seem wider. In such a swimsuit, the top of the figure becomes more massive. This is especially noticeable in contrast to the subtle slim hips.
