Bikinis for Women with Short Legs
Bikinis for Women with Short Legs – This is probably the easiest physical characteristic to overcome when it comes to bikinis and one piece swimsuits. It’s all in the cut of the thigh and the design of the waist.
Rule of thumb – The higher the thigh cut opening, the longer your legs will appear. If you have shorter legs then you do not want to wear a bikini with a low cut or medium cut thigh, in addition the scrunch butt bikinis not only tend to have higher thigh openings, but add length to your legs simply by forming your buttocks.
This beautiful bikini is a perfect example of what NOT to wear if you have short legs, the wide waist will take away from your hip region, and the straight cut waist will give the appearance of a longer midriff which will further give the appearance of shorter legs. In addition the lower cut thigh takes away from your leg length and further gives the appearance of shorter lower appendages.
The string bikini can give the appearance of longer legs if it has a slightly scooped front and if the strings are worn over the hip bones. The scoop front will help elongate the frontal region of your hip area. The scoop front will also give a triangular effect when the strings are worn over your hips.
You second option is the scoop front with waist band. This is a mid-thigh bikini but the smooth lines with the full scoop front will give a really nice elongating effect that is extremely feminine. This bikini style gives a very natural appearance and tends to really smooth out your body.
The scrunch butt bikini tends to have a straight cut front which goes against everything we have said up to this point; however it is the higher thigh that is formed by the scrunch butt effect that will give the appearance of longer legs. The scrunch butt bikini has an elastic strip sewn into the mid seam of the back of the bikini. The shirred rear effect will pull up your buttocks giving a really nice elongating effect.
When it comes to bikinis for women with short legs, the Brazilian Bikini is by far the best choice of all. This bikini has a higher cut thigh; it comes in minimum to full rear coverage and is by far the best bikini style for women with shorter legs. Because of the defined cut of this bikini, it naturally gives the appearance of longer legs. This bikini can completely change your physical appearance in a bikini. The second bonus advantage of the Brazilian bikini is it offers an incredible slimming effect which further will give the appearance of longer legs.
