Men’s Bikini Swimwear: Know Your Body Type

There are some basic factors you should keep in mind before going shopping for your men’s bikini swimwear look. Some of these important factors include cut, style and color. However, one of the most important factors that often gets overlooked is body type. Knowing your body type and learning what looks best on you can go a long way toward helping you look your very best.

There are basically three types of men’s bodies out there, and the fashion for each type differs.

Big and Tall

If you fall into the big and tall category, you would do better to stay away from both vertical and horizontal stripes since they will only accentuate your proportions. Opt instead for solids, color blocks and small prints to complement your frame.

Average

If you find yourself in the average category, congratulations! You can wear just about anything, as long as you're reasonably toned. Choose any cut, color or pattern that complements your body and skin tone.

Stout

If you happen to be a littler shorter and heavier than average, you'll likely fall into the stout category. To look your best, stay away from bold, loud patterns. Opt instead for solid blocks of color and vertical pinstripes, both of which tend to elongate the body.
