Yahoo Movies 6 Size-Inclusive Swimwear Brands to Shop This Summer
Not too long ago in the distant past, an unrelenting bombast of "get your body beach ready" advertisements urged many to believe that their natural forms were unacceptable for normal summer outings. While we still have strides to make in accepting and celebrating a myriad of shapes, an impressive number of brands have been steadily paving the path for inclusive swimwear, designing for all types of bodies. Too often, bandeaus don't cater to larger chests, while one-suits can squeeze and pinch.
Ignoring toxic messaging that sold the notion bodies should mold to limited bikini styles rather than the other way around, fashion labels like CUUP and Girlfriend Collective actively champion and support all sizes. Shopping for swimwear doesn't have to be a dreadful experience that leaves you hating your body. It should -- and can be -- the precursor to enjoying seaside activities without worrying about how you look.
