Swimwear for Your Height
The Best Swimsuits for Short Guys
The main problem shorter guys face with trunks is
looking swamped in too much material; you’ve
only got little legs, don’t lose half of them to your
swimwear!
Plus you’re at risk of looking like you’re wearing
your dad’s trunks, which is never a good look. The
solution to this is really simple; short legs, short
shorts. Don’t worry we don’t mean speedos,
unless that’s your style; the best trunks for short
guys are ones that hit around the mid-thigh area.
This not only gives the illusion of longer legs, but
it lets you show off those leg muscles gained from
hitting the gym.
Don’t be afraid of short shorts, as we all know
Orlebar’s Setter trunks (shorter-than-short) were
featured in the James Bond film Skyfall, and if
they’re good enough for 007 they’re definitely good
enough for the rest of us.

The Best Swimsuits for Tall Guys
Luckily for you, tall guys have the most
freedom when it comes to choosing
swimwear. However, there are still
some rules you should follow to avoid
any swimwear slip-ups. One mistake
tall guys often make is thinking they
can still wear long, baggy skater-
shorts. No. It’s no longer the ‘90s and
you’re not 16 anymore.
While longer shorts suit tall guys best,
as they help balance the ratio between
leg and swimsuit, you shouldn’t go any
lower than the knee. For those in
touch with their inner surfer, Billabong
creates really laid-back easy-to-wear
designs, plus, as one of the original
men’s swimwear brands, they have
loads of patterns to choose from.
Another perk of being tall is that,
depending on the strength of your tan,
you can choose any colour or pattern
you like.

Swimwear for Your Weight
The Best Swimsuits for Skinny Guys
Tropical swim shorts are a great example of a stylish print
that will compliment your body type. Contrast waistbands are a
really good idea for slim guys, as the horizontal stripe gives the
illusion that your hips are wider.
The Best Swimsuits for Big Guys
Dark colours are an easy way to streamline your silhouette;
always go for vertical stripes, as they will make you look taller and
thinner. That’s not to say larger guys can’t wear prints but stick to
darker ones, as they are more subtle and sophisticated.

24. 24 8-14 points: You are like a Cardigan
You like to dress casually. They are easy going, but fancy, suitable for any
occasion even if it is a simple work day or a random night-out with your friends.
You are up for any adventure, but also appreciate the comfort of a calm and
home-spent afternoon.
15-21 points: You are like Denim
You are a person who easily adjusts and can
always see the positive side of anything, with
the great characteristic of being able to pass
it on. You just put on a denim and you are
ready to change the world. You don’t really
make fuss about things, fashion and dressing
up included.
22-26 points: You are like a Blouse
You are a smooth person with a very refined
appetite for beauty and charm, and you do
believe that appearances make an
impression – but you never overdo it. You are
exquisite and you always make a good
impression without being pushy at all.
27-32 points: You are like a Pencil skirt
You always own the look, regardless what you
are wearing.
You have a sharp taste in fashion and a clear
view of do’s and don’ts when it comes to that.
A pencil skirt is a timeless piece that
expresses confidence, refined taste and
ambition: it is definitely made for you. The
strength of a pencil skirt is that it beautifully
highlights your figure and makes your waist
look even thinner.
