Fit Guide
 
The Best Fit For YOU!
 
At Carlas we believe that with the right fitting swimmers, every woman can look beautiful and feel confident at the beach or around the pool.
 

How to measure

Use a tape measure to measure yourself, holding the tape securely around the 3 key points listed above.

To achieve an accurate measurement we recommend you take these measurements whilst wearing minimal clothing.

BUST: Measure over the fullest area of your bust & straight around your back.

UNDERBUST: Measure directly under your bust & straight around your back.

HIP: Measure at the fullest part of your hip ensuring the tape is straight.
 
Refer to the table to confirm your correct size.
 
We hope the following guide helps you to choose the shape that is right for your body
Full Bust  

Carla offers a large range of cup sized swimwear...

Look for hidden support features when choosing a swimsuit

For a larger bust remove cups to allow for more cup depth.

DUAL SIZING (Upsize) Swimwear with a tie at neck and back allows you to dual size. For example;   A 10D lady can wear a size 12 regular fit bra or A 10DD lady can also fit into a 12D bra.

Look for hidden underwire support, convertible & adjustable straps so you can customise your fit and desired look

Look for boning for side cup support or  flattering wrap front detail.

 

Smaller Bust

A bold all over print works well on a smaller bust.

The goddess bandeau enhances and shapes a smaller bust.

Bikini tops with detail such as V-wire, U-wire or trim will enhance bust and give shape.

Booster bras & our new “up-a-cup” styles enhance bust and provide support.

Moulded bras add shape and enhance the bust.

Petite
Boylegs with a trim detail give slim hips more shape.

Cut out one pieces s uit a petite figure and accentuate a small waist.

Padded halter bras accentuate the cleavage while hipster pants flatter petite figures.

Full figure
A well-cut one piece with detail at the bust and a flattering leg line is best for this figure type.

Look for singlets with ruching to camouflage tummy area.

Carlas Pareos, Sarongs & Kaftans are a great fashion option for the full figure.

Boardshorts offer more coverage and flatter the figure, especially teamed with a printed singlet top.

Sunvests
We believe in being sun smart...Carla offers a great range of sunvests with different features to suit all body types.
Sunvests feature UP50+ fabrics for maximum sun protection.
 
Pear Shape
Printed singlet tops with trims worn with a plain pant focus attention away from
the hip area.

Boyleg pants offer more coverage.

Skirted pants offer great coverage for the hip area.

Well-cut one pieces with detail at the bust and a flattering leg line are great for pear shape figures.

Tummy
Ruching through the body will camouflage the tummy area.

Singlets with an A-Line shape are flattering.

A soft band pant will sit softy on the body without clinging.

Trapeze singlet shapes are a good option to hide tummy area and give freedom of movement.
