So the too-tight section wants to move to an area of lesser stretch; the narrower part of your body, the waist. <br />My advice is to cut your tankini top wider at the hips next time, fit it properly to yourself so that it skims the hips rather than hugs them, and you should not have this problem again with this style.Carolynhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/03156106727490224625noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1374783908598391491.post-24913610806025817022012-10-13T16:39:47.583+08:002012-10-13T16:39:47.583+08:00I want these swimmers!!!!I want these swimmers!!!!Kirstyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/17204727428025001321noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-1374783908598391491.post-77015002531957379652012-10-13T16:20:37.157+08:002012-10-13T16:20:37.157+08:00This is truly a great version of your bathers.

Like you I have a small waist and every time I try this style it creeps up to my waist (not a good look on me) leaving me wondering what style to try next.Shellyhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/07142947905050151725noreply@blogger.com
