In the grand hierarchy, shopping for swimsuits ranks somewhere between doing our taxes and getting a root canal. To top it off, we’re encouraged to shop our shape as if we were all a basket of produce. This bikini is for a strawberry. That one-piece is for a blueberry. But have you ever stood half-naked in a fitting room and thought to yourself, “I think this tankini is more for a kiwi.” Of course not! We’re real women with real bodies. And we need swimsuits that address actual issues. So, whether you’re in search of a suit that elevates a flat butt or one that supports a large bust, we’ve got you covered.

1. Nina by Moeva London Underwired Strappy Bikini, $344 at Carnet de Mode

Retro-style high waisted bikinis will accentuate your best assets without exposing too much. Just choose a top with straps, so you have better support.

2. Out From Under Ruched Bikini Bottoms, $42 and Longline Bikini Top, $42 at Urban Outfitters

If you're not into wearing tankinis, shorten a long torso by either wearing high-waisted briefs or a corset top or both. When you want to wear a one-piece, look to brands with extended sizes, like J.Crew.

3. Made By Dawn Petal Bikini, $113 for top and $108 for bottoms at Nasty Gal
An itsy-bitsy bikini in bright, feminine colors allows you to show off your body and soften your lines at the same time.

4. Wildfox Gypsy Flowers Bikini, $98 for top and $82 for bottoms at Wildfox
A halter top will amp up your cleavage, while details like ruffles, bows and ruching will balance your toned body.

5. ASOS Curve Mix & Match Bikini, $36 for top and $29 for bottoms at ASOS
Plus-size gals aren't relegated to basic one-pieces anymore. Go to sites like ASOS, Forever 21, Vilanya and ModCloth for suits over size 12.

6. Tropiculture Swimsuit, $50.40 at swimsuitsforall
If you choose a one piece bathing suit, make sure there's adequate support up top. The higher your bustline, the longer and leaner your torso looks.

7. Tori Praver Ruffle Bikini Bottom, $29.99 at Target
Textured fabrics and additional details, like ruffles, will create the needed volume you're looking for. Just steer clear of high-waisted bottoms that flatten and string bikini bottoms that sag.

8. Cleo by Panache Cassie Longline Balconette Bikini Top, $54.12 at figleaves.com
Ample cleavage calls for cup sizes and underwire that will give you plenty of support. Try brands like Freya, Elomi and Cleo by Panache that carry cup sizes over DD.

9. ASOS Braid Back Plunge Swimsuit, $36 at ASOS
There are two ways to handle a small bust — either embrace your body or wear a pushup. If you want to go au naturel, you can pull off a plunging neckline.

10. Victoria's Secret Ruched One-Piece, $138.50 at Victoria's Secret
If your stomach is your problem area, a one-piece with either ruching or a peplum will hide any bulges. The same goes for a wrap suit that crisscrosses at your midsection.
