Choose a swimsuit

Swimming in the pool is, first of all, a sport, that is, active movement is implied. Consequently, a sports cut suit will become the best style.

Separate or continuous

Which swimsuit is better for a pool - one-piece or separate?

Separate swimwear for swimming in the pool are not suitable. The purpose of these bathing suits is swimming in the sea or other open water bodies and getting a tan in the sun. During swimming in the pool, such a swimsuit can constrain movements, because you are actively moving, and any bows can easily be untied, the upper part during movements can shift and expose your chest. In addition, extra beads and ropes will only bother you.
For swimming in the pool, one-piece models are excellent, which fit snugly to the body, do not cause discomfort during movements and do not rub.

the cloth

First of all, the fabric of the product must be strong, withstand chlorine water and be flexible. Therefore, to choose a quality swimsuit for the pool, give preference to such materials:

Of polyester the cheapest sports swimwear are made, they wear out quickly in chlorinated water and are not of high quality.
Cotton swimwear are pleasant to wear, but under the influence of chlorinated water they quickly lose shape, stretch and may turn yellow.
Elastane swimwear is durable, holds well, is pleasant to the body and dries quickly.
Polyamide products are also well suited - they are soft, dry quickly, and if they contain elastane or lycra, then they are also very durable.
Tactel swimwear is of good quality, dries quickly, passes air well and keeps its shape. Such products are quite expensive.
Sportswear is made from nylon. This material is very elastic, fits well to the body and draws a figure, which is important for a woman.
Microfiber products are pleasant to the touch, dry quickly, the skin in them breathes, but they have a significant drawback - this is a rather high cost.

Important! The composition of almost any product also includes lycra, which determines the ability of the product not to stretch and keep its shape:

Normal is considered lycra content of about 10%.

For sports and slimming swimwear, a 20% lycra content is suitable.

If you see that lycra in the composition of the fabric is more than 30%, then know that such a product will not let air through, and this is quite harmful for your skin.

The size

How to choose a swimsuit for the pool, what size should I take? The size should be taken so that the swimsuit fits your figure tightly:

If you take a larger size, the swimsuit will stretch out in the water, hang on you, and the straps will slide off your shoulders.
The small size will hamper the movement and dig into the body while swimming.
If your height is above average, then choose a swimsuit one size larger.
And vice versa - women with small stature should choose a swimsuit one size smaller.

Stitches

When buying, pay attention to the seams of the product:

They should be small and neatly crafted and should not rub.
There should not be any sticking threads or elastic bands on the product.

Important! If you want to check the swimsuit for quality seams, then stretch it. If small holes appear in places where the threads enter the fabric, then you should not take such a swimsuit - it will not last long.

Color and decor

Bathing suits at least for the beach, at least for the pool can have a wide variety of colors. In order not to miscalculate with color, use our tips:

Saturated paints from chlorine will quickly fade, and white ones will turn yellow.
The best option would be a dark bathing suit with vertical stripes at the edges, adding growth and harmony to any figure.
Girls with small breasts should buy a swimsuit with bright horizontal stripes in the chest area.
Tall and thin, you can choose a product of bright color with a large pattern.
Small slender women are recommended a small pattern on the fabric.

Important! Decorative elements on swimwear for the pool may be present. The main thing here is that they do not interfere, are securely attached to the product, rhinestones are not scratched, beads and buckles do not touch or interfere with movements.
