• 1. Cutouts and Keyhole One-Pieces A one-piece suit with strategic wedges or loops of bare skin gives you the daring feeling of a two-piece without going there. The midriff — right under your bust but above your waist — is the new hot spot for discreet showing off, as in the tie-front keyhole Kona Sol Plus-Size Twist-Front Cut-Out One-Piece Swimsuit, sizes 14W to 26W ($40, target.com); the Kona Sol Textured Tie-Front One-Piece Swimsuit, sizes XS to XL ($40, target.com); and the pie-wedge cutouts in the Swimsuits for All Gardenia Cut-Out V-Neck Halter One-Piece Swimsuit, sizes 4 to 26 ($84, swimsuitsforall.com). Everyone has a small firm spot at the rib cage that can handle a little peek!

Last word: Every suit is now a comfy super supportive blend of nylon and 18 to 20 percent spandex or poly/spandex, with power mesh linings, tummy control panels and ruching as the new normal. Slip out of your comfort zone and have some fun. If not now, when?!
