I agree with the others that the TYR suit in Pic 28 looks hottest on you. You have a beautiful swimmer's body anyway, and that suit is clean, simple, athletic, sexy - it's perfect for you. It enhances and draws attention to your body, and doesn't cover too much or distract from it with weird cuts, patterns, or detailing. I've always thought that TYR had the most flattering cut if you have the body for them - they're my favorites, and I've worn numerous competitive suits over my life. I probably would have chosen a different color for you - royal blue or red would look hot, but the black is classic and looks great on you.

Hi all, after some help in the style department.
Huge fan of brief cut swimwear (aka speedos -the style, not specifically the brand) and I'm wanting to get a new suit for the lead up to Summer (hooray for the Southern Hemisphere!)

Can people with more fashion advice provide some suggestions on what style/colour/brand etc would suit me best.
NB: I have very pale skin & a bit skinny. Not muscley but sort of toned I guess (struggle to gain muscle, largely because I get distracted/bored too easily to workout)

Pics provided to give you an idea of my bodyshape.. (sorry about the quality, taken on phone camera or webcam..).
Would be very grateful for some honest, knowledgeable help from people, cheers.

I think you look fine in all the photos and all the styles suit you, your body type, etc. If you like speedo brand/style go for it.

Yoof, thanks everyone, some very helpful feedback. Not too sure on the coksox - a little too revealing for public wearing for me! But I do like the smaller waistband type suits (less than 2" sort).

Thanks everyone

Hey there
You and I have very similar bodies, and I agree with the others. I think you could wear about anything you want. Here's some pics of me in a couple different styles and just body shots to give you perspective. The one I wear ll the time and my favorite is the blue andrew christian almost naked bikini.

Wow, thanks for the pics Green! Yes, we do have a similar body shape, however not a similar skin tone unfortunately (for me!). And unfortunately (again, for me!) my... anatomy isn't nearly as good (read: as big!) to be fitting in to some of those suits! Very nice!

True I do tan pretty easily. But swimwear is supposed to be fun. So any color is going to be fine. You might be surprised about the andrew christian. I wear a size medium, but the small might work just fine for you. I think I have a bigger ass. lol The small would have a snugger fit all around. But as for my opinion, squarecuts always look good, and bikinis, you just have to get what fits your gentleman parts.

I offer no advice, as someone who prefers to swim naked whenever possible.

Then why bother commenting? I'm sorry, but that really was pointless. I'm after advice on clothing, in particular for wearing to public pools and you post an unhelpful comment about swimming naked. I don't see thepoint.

Thanks to everyone else who has offered helpful advice

Thanks Wrat, yes I like the narrower sides as well.

Still haven't come to a conclusion though haha, guess I'm just fussy?
