Nothing is worse than standing up after hitting an epic water slide, only to find that your bikini top is gone or that your butt cheeks are hanging out for all to see. Because swimsuits cover very little, it’s understandable that if they shift, embarrassment will follow. You don’t have to suffer through a malfunction when you follow these easy tips. Each one is simple and will ensure that your bits are always covered when it matters most.

1 Make Sure You Have the Right Fit
If your swimsuit is too big or it has loosened over time, you are much more likely to suffer a wardrobe malfunction, especially at waterparks or in the waves of the ocean. If your suit moves or shifts easily, you can assume that it is going to do so at the worst possible times. Here’s an example – I once lost my swimsuit bottoms while waterskiing because they were a size too big. Don’t let the same thing happen to you.
2 Wear It the Right Way
Sure, you might want to turn your halter into a strapless or pull the legs up just a bit at your hips. Don’t do it! Messing with the way your swimsuit sits on your body ups the chance of something going wrong and a malfunction could occur. Instead, wear your suit the right way and go buy another one if you want to try a new style.
Shopping for the fashionable modern woman was never so easy and engaging! With infinite styles and brands to cater to the unique taste of every woman, online clothing stores for women are the new 'in'. Offering a world of options, they are the one-stop-destination for chic, high-quality and affordable fashion. Luxuriate in the joy of shopping from the comfort of your home!
3 Do the Jump Test
Next time you’re standing in the dressing room trying on a new suit or you’re just pulling one out of your drawer that you’ve haven’t worn in a while, the jump test is imperative. Once you have the suit in place, jump and down a few times. You should be able to see if anything important is going to spill out, accidentally giving those around you a free peep show.
4 Adjust before Climbing out of the Water
Since most embarrassing swimsuit malfunctions happen when you’re emerging from the water, practice making discreet adjustments before you get out. Quickly check to make sure all the fabric is covering what it should and pull it back into place if it has shifted. Easy, right?
5 Don’t Assume That Your Top and Bottom Are the Same Size
There’s a reason that tops and bottoms are sold separately. And that reason is so that you can find the right fit above and below. Some girls are the same size all over, but you might not be. Make sure you try on a few different sizes to find what works best for you. That way you won’t be the one who loses her top when a big wave rolls in.
6 Get It Wet and do the Walk Test
Of course, you can only do this with suits you already own, but stepping into the shower and getting the suit wet and then walking around in it should let you know how much sag you’re going to get and how much danger of a malfunction you’re putting yourself in. Swimsuits stretch and sag over time so a suit that was fine last year might be too worn out to work this year.
7 Forget about Wearing Your Suit All Day Long
Once you’re done in the water, it’s best to take your swimsuit off and put on something else. Wearing it for long periods of time wears it out and stretches it faster. Next time you put it on, you could be in for trouble. Not to mention that sitting around in a damp suit ups the risk of rashes, itchiness and irritation all over your body.
