Swimsuit and cover-up combos are something we all need come beach time in the summer. Of course, finding the perfect swimsuit and cover-up combo isn't always easy. Luckily, we did all the work, so you don't have to. We addressed five different body types and found suits that not only fit, but also flatter. What's more, we partnered them with toppers that complement the suit and your figure. Talk about a major win-win! Are you ready to find your dream swimsuit and cover-up combo? Let's go!

Stay away from sporty, boy-cut silhouettes. Instead, tap your sexy side with racy straps. Lots of straps. Complete the look with a see-through cover up.
Add touches of femininity with pretty florals, ruffles, and lace. But if the look is too girly for your taste, pick a darker, moodier color palette. This look strikes the right balance.
Embrace the new modern take on ruffles with this sleek (and sexy!) one-piece from Topshop. And catch a glimpse of the girly detailing from under this Seafolly strappy black jumpsuit.
First, halters lend the most support. Second, look for styles that run in larger cup sizes. This one is sized to accommodate D+ cups. Team your suit with a striped oversize menswear-inspired design.
Take advantage of slimming stripes and underwire support-both of which are found in this Norma Kamali swimsuit. Complete your look by adding a feminine touch with this pretty embroidered tunic.
Make balconette-styles your new go-tos, thanks to its underwire lift and support. Pair yours with a white cover-up slip dress. Eliminate toppers with unnecessary ruffles or excess fabric-they tend to bunch and attract more attention.

Then you should look for bikini bottoms that offer more coverage. These high waisted bikini bottoms are perfect for just that. The pretty striped coverup dress will complete the look beautifully.
Draw the eye upwards with a bright neon color blocked bikini top and darker bottoms. For your cover-up, pick a breezy silhouette that delivers both comfort and coverage.
To divert attention away from a derriere, slip into a sexy plunging downtohere one-piece peppered with a playful print. The same concept goes for your cover-up as well-pick one with an attention-grabbing embroidered neckline.
Shorten your torso with pieces that cover a larger surface area-we're looking at you, bustier-style tops! Try your hand at prints with this bold tie-dye cover-up.
If bustier styles aren't your thing, then try high-waisted bottoms to shorten your long torso. Counter a single colored bikini with a traffic-stopping batik kimono.
Seek out designs that offer customizable adjustments. This Violet Lake one-piece features drawstrings along each side that can be scrunched to accommodate body length and leg height. Genius! Team it with this eye catching beaded kaftan.
Your goal is to lengthen your bod. Fake it with strategically placed cut-outs, like with this fun one-piece. Keep your suit (especially one with such a bold print) in the spotlight with a lace cover-up.
