Bathing suits are typically made with synthetic fibers such as polyester and nylon. They're designed to stretch to the wearer's body shape without being damaged, so these fabrics are resistant to shrinking. As long as the suit hasn't been washed more than a few times before, the fabric may shrink noticeably.
Bikini bottoms have gotten small as a result of just about all fashion trends these days – in fact, of any era – because of celebrities. With so much emphasis on our butts, it seems logical that the bikini industry would start to change, and indeed they have.

To check if the top fits properly before buying a swimsuit, try slipping a finger or two under the straps — if you can't fit them, that likely means it's too small, but if you can fit more than that, it's probably too big.
How should a one piece swimsuit fit? It should feel snug but not restricting and create a flattering, smooth silhouette. The key thing to avoid is materials that are too tight and don't allow for any stretch. Less quality fabrics can pull on the skin and cause discomfort.
