to the terror of trying on a bathing suit under fluorescent lights in front of a full-length mirror. Feeling so exposed, there's no better opportunity for self-critiquing, a process women excel at, as LittleBird Nancy eloquently explains.Guilty as charged. When the one bathing suit I would dare put on started to wear around the neckline and I eventually had to toss it, my lame excuse for not going swimming became that I had no swimsuit, not that I dreaded going to a store to try one on. I'm not alone. My good-looking daughter-in-law avoids the public pool at the private club to which she belongs.All joking (kind of) aside, there's some good news in a sea of new bathing suits. Itsy, bitsy, teenie, weenie polka dot bikinis don't flatter anyone except rail-thin, skinny-legged pre-pubescent eleven-year-old girls, but there are plenty of other choices as brands like Hunza G and Summersalt have woken up to size inclusivity with tech-smart fabrics. Miraclesuit and Paula Beachwear aim to whittle waists and smooth out tummies. And many of these brands keep the environment in their sights by using recycled materials.
