Finally! 13 Swimsuits That Were Made to Flatter All Your Curves

If you've got curves, swimsuit shopping can feel like an abyss of confusion. Well, fear no more, because we've done the hard work for you. If you've got a bigger booty, these 13 pieces will look amazing on you, and they're not what you'd expect. The trick to a flattering swimsuit, especially if you're curvier, is actually less fabric. Think high-cut legs and side ties.

Now, before you get up in arms, hear us out. The high cut makes legs appear longer, and a string silhouette lets you control how tight or loose your bottoms are. Plus, we love puff sleeves and belts that add a little embellishment to your swimsuit. Now, all you have to do is find your beach!

#PullUp For These Fashion Brands, Because They're All Giving Back to the Black Community

Now more than ever it is our duty to support the Black community and, as a fashion site, we vow to be a resource for you. From the smallest start, like following Black fashion influencers, to greater efforts, like shopping and supporting designers and brands that need business, we can encourage change within the fashion industry.

One of the first questions I had was "where can I donate?" I'm happy to see that a lot of fashion designers, houses, and labels are taking first steps, not only to pledge a donation but to share with followers how much they are willing to give and especially where they are dedicated to sharing a portion of their funds. It's important to note that a lot of the businesses listed here, all of which are considering ways to help, have been deeply affected by the COVID-19 crisis and continue to struggle. By shopping from the brands listed ahead, we can help these companies sustain their finances while also contributing to the Black lives matter movement through their platforms.

Read on to check out the pledges we've gathered, and please send an email if you're aware of other brands that should be included on this list.

Fashion Designer ASAI Is Selling Rihanna's Insta-Famous Dress to Support Black Lives Matter

Fashion brand ASAI is bringing back Rihanna's memorable vacation dress for a good cause. Amid protests in response to George Floyd's death and police brutality, British-Chinese-Vietnamese designer A Sai Ta took action to stand with the Black community by bringing back the singer's outfit to raise funds for Black Lives Matter, Solace Women's Aid, and The Voice of Domestic Workers.

Rihanna has close ties to ASAI, since they created a 24-piece capsule collection for Selfridges last year. Back in February, the brand was forced to cancel its Autumn/Winter fashion show due to the novel coronavirus pandemic, but it appears to be back in business for one particular piece of clothing. "No one else has this dress apart from me and RiRi," ASAI's caption reads. "We will be producing this iconic dress exclusively for three charities!"

In order to purchase Rihanna's Hot Wok tie-dye minidress, interested customers should direct message ASAI's Instagram account (@asaitakeaway) or or email info@asaita.co.uk. Keep reading to get a refresher on the famous dress, and make sure to check out these Black-owned fashion businesses you can support right now.
