Photo taken from wiki. Maillot is--as stated in Wiki, a designer's label or name for a woman's one-piece swimsuit.
The term is commonly used by designers and swimwear retailers, hence, for some people who do not really pay attention to labels the term is quite unfamiliar.
Maillots fit perfectly to a woman's body no matter how petite, skinny or thick they are. This is so because women have natural curves and a maillot, designed as a body hugger ca n expose women's curves subtly and with class.
Perhaps, one of the best maillot styles i have seen is ilovekoi's two tone maillot. I've seen their styles from ilovekoi.com.ph and amongst the available maillot designs they have, this rust-purple two tone maillot caught my attention.
Why do i love it?

First, the color combination is perfect for my fair skin type. It promotes a fine blending with my skin hence it was not too bright to wear.
Second, the V neck detail is SUPER sexy. It shows your collar bone and the cleavage for a daring effect. I love it even though I don't really have that Victoria's Secret model body (haha).
Third, it has a sexy feminine back detail. It shows too much skin at the back. The ribbon is adjustable.
Fourth, the bikini cut is not too high to expose too much waist. Perfect for those who do not really want to go for thin bikini strings:)

I did make some adjustments though especially with the V neck as it shows too much... (bones? right. LOL). Kidding aside, I actually got the larger-than-my-size size during the Bazaar at the Word Trade Center last February, because there was only one of this type left! And i BADLY WANT it.
So i thought, i can ask my auntie to alter that part so I can wear it more comfortably at the beach. (Yes, that's what you will do when you really want something)!
And so that March when we headed to the beach in Morong Bataan, I was able to wear it, the altered one and this is how it looked:

The kids of Morong Bataan
Fine and perfect, I even played with the kids of Morong Bataan, without worrying about the V neck area.
As a mom, I used to worry a lot about the clothes I wear, much more with swim suits, as my body has changed due to pregnancy. Somehow with right aerobics training and by eating well, I have managed to be back in shape. I guess, the best learning I realized during the whole journey of being thin to becoming huge (carrying Bien inside) and then thick or chubby down to my-almost-there-ideal-weight, is that:
No matter what size you are and what color you have, you will only be beautiful in others' eyes if you can see that in your own. Every girl can wear swim suit! Just look for the best style that you feel comfortable with.
