It’s fair to say that finding swimwear that you feel confident in is no walk in the park. While there are countless cuts and styles available to choose from on the high street, finding the perfect swimsuit is - to put it lightly - a challenge. There is, however, one tried and true swimwear staple that never seems to let us down when it comes to poolside confidence - a tummy control swimsuit.
Take high street hero M&S and its Magic Tummy Control Swimsuits, for instance, which are made with the brand's 360-degree Tummy Control Technology and are so flattering in fact, that Vogue Williams recently took to her Insta grid to flaunt them. While you may prefer to keep it classic and wear the black Tummy Control Padded Neck Swimsuit, £29.50, there are plenty of other stylish prints to choose from, such as the Tummy Control Printed Swimsuit, £29.50 that comes in not one, but two other patterns and shades.
Other high street favourites such as H&M and Boux Avenue also stock tummy control swimsuits aplenty, so you don't need to veer far in search of swimwear that will give you that extra bit of confidence. Examples include H&M’s shaping swimsuit, £32.99, and Boux Avenue’s Panama Smoothing Swimsuit, £54 which are extremely flattering thanks to their shapewear-like material, and incredibly chic design.
