Two words that elicit both joy and fear in Us: pool party. Sure, we love to schmooze with friends at a sunny social gathering, but it’s the dress code that causes concern. Most swimsuits just don’t suit Us, and no cover-up can change that.
It wasn’t until we discovered the magic of a high cut that we no longer backed out from beach day invites. Just like looking good in a photo is all about lighting, feeling good in a bathing suit is all about design! Certain swimsuits just hit at the right place on your body to sculpt your shape and elongate your legs like magic.
