A well-fitting swimsuit depends on your body type, support needs, and whether you prefer an adjustable two-piece or a body-sculpting one-piece.

If you want swimwear that keeps its colour and doesn't go faded, dull or saggy after repeated swimming, the most important thing to look for is chlorine-resistant fabric - particularly if you swim in a pool.

My top recommendation is Speedo Endurance+ for durability and value. Speedo says its Endurance+ fabric offers up to 20 times more fade resistance than conventional swimwear fabrics, and independent testing has also praised its colour retention. www.speedo.co.zawww.220triathlon.com

A more stylish printed one-piece with wide straps, an open back and a built-in shelf bra. A good option if you want a little more fashion appeal, although I would verify its specific fabric's chlorine resistance before choosing it purely for fade prevention.

## How to stop swimwear fading

- Check the fabric, not just the brand. Look for Speedo Endurance+, Funkita C-Infinity or another explicitly chlorine-resistant performance fabric. - Rinse in cool, fresh water immediately after swimming. - Dry in the shade, away from direct sunlight and radiators. - Avoid tumble-drying and leaving a wet costume in your swim bag. www.speedo.co.zawww.220triathlon.comwww.itogs.com

For holidays and beachwear, rather than frequent pool swimming, UV exposure, sunscreen and salt water also matter, so choose swimwear with good UV and fabric-durability specifications.

## Let me narrow it down

Are you looking for women's swimwear, men's swimwear or children's swimwear - and is it mainly for swimming in a pool or for holidays at the beach? I'll narrow the recommendations to the best options for keeping their colour.

For an athletic build in the UK, choose swimwear that either emphasises your streamlined shape or adds curves through contrast, texture and adjustable details.

### Best styles

- For lap swimming: a racerback, Y-back or high-neck one-piece in chlorine-resistant fabric. Speedo, Zoggs and Arena are strong practical choices; Speedo's Jetstream is a well-reviewed all-round option at about £42. - For a more feminine silhouette: a plunge or halterneck bikini top with high-leg, tie-side or high-cut bottoms. These details add shape while showing off athletic shoulders and legs. - For a balanced two-piece: a textured or patterned top with a plain bottom, or mix-and-match separates so each piece fits correctly. - For more coverage: a square-neck or supportive one-piece, preferably with adjustable straps and a defined waist. - For open-water swimming: a long-sleeve or thermal suit; Zone3's long-sleeve option is designed specifically for open-water use.

### UK picks by budget

| Budget | Good options | |---|---| | Under £35 | Decathlon, ASOS DESIGN, H&M | | £35-£70 | Speedo, Zoggs, Instant Swim, Triumph | | £70+ | Zone3, Finisterre, Sweaty Betty |

For frequent pool use, prioritise chlorine-resistant fabric, secure straps and a fit that stays flat when moving; for holidays, quick-drying fabric and adjustable sides are more useful. If you have a fuller bust, bra-sized tops, underwire, wider straps and adjustable support generally fit better than standard small/medium/large bikini tops.

Best overall recommendation: a sporty high-leg one-piece with a Y-shaped back for swimming, or a plunge halterneck bikini with tie-side bottoms for beachwear.
