3 On Your Side: Finding A Bathing Suit For Your Body Type

PHILADELPHIA (CBS) -- Memorial Day weekend marks the unofficial start of summer, and that means the official start of bathing suit season.

Whether you're big on the bottom or not so big on the top--or any size in between--3 On Your Side and CBS 3's Pat Ciarrocchi have advice from a woman who created a swimsuit just for you.

Depending on your body type, it's not always easy to find a bathing suit that fits just right.

"For the longest time, I couldn't find a swimsuit that flattered my body," said Yulia Drummond.

Yulia had such a hard time finding the right swimsuit that she started her own bathing suit line called Voda Swimwear.

She says her line will fit any shape on any woman; the key is getting support in the places you need it most.

And the secret to that support comes from double padding, which eliminates the need for uncomfortable underwire.

Three women with three different body types improved their beach look with Voda's special lift and support designs.

And that's important, especially in light of a recent survey, which showed that 60% of women say they are not ready to go out in public in a bathing suit.

In fact, more than 30% say they intend to wear a full body cover-up.
