Getting your Trinity Audio player ready...

Let’s get down to basics. Look no further than a one-piece suit.

Bikinis and other two-piecers are great. If you’ve got the body, we’re happy for you.

But the maillot, the one-piece, is best for most women. Coverage is the key word here. And these suits offer itfrom the figure-flattering Lands’ End on the Contents page to the designer suits featured here. (Remember, similar styles can be found in every price range.)

Clearly, the trend toward more coverage and devices to draw the eye away from problem areas is in response, well, to the Boomer population.

Decorative, cutout decolletage plays up assets and diverts the eye. Color blocking around the midsection minimizes hips and waists. For those of us with thighs, legs are cut high; if thighs are no problem but the derriere is, the cut is lower on the leg.

Now what more could we ask for?
