It seems to me that the bigger bikinis that covered the more fleshy women (Ava, Ursala, Brigette) were most feminine. Few people have such attractive derriere’s, hips, bones, rib cages, etc. that I want to see them. As most men i know say “leave a little to the imagination.”

I think swimwear fashion has really moved forward the past 5-7 years allowng woman to express their own personal style on the beach or poolside at their favorite resort. I think that if you feel good about who you are and have the confidence to wear a skimpy bikini then go for it.
