Get the Look

Ask Deborah

Q: I have just celebrated my 50th birthday and as a treat my husband is taking me to the Caribbean for the first time. I want to get a great, but safe, tan and so am going to splash out on some new swimwear. Am I too old to wear a bikini?Lorraine, West Wickham

A: Age really should not come into your decision, it is all about being comfortable and confident. Certain styles suit specific body shapes, so think about your shape and if there are areas you love more than others. The one-piece swimsuit can be timeless and suit everyone, but two-piece swimwear now comes in such an array of styles and colours you can always find something to flatter and feel relaxed in. Why not spoil yourself and get both!
