Do you think a monokini would be flattering to a post-preggo belly?

I'm 8 mos post partum and no matter what I do my belly still looks 3 mos preggo. My arms, legs, hips, & butt are fine, but I definitely will not be rocking a 2 piece bathing suit this year.

Do you think this would be flattering and help hide the pooch a little?

That would work for me, because my looch is low and all in front, but I would be worried about the tight fabric giving me extra love handles Chat Icon It's really nice though!

That's my problem too. Low and right in front.

Maybe I'll order it and give it a shot.

I have a couple of tankinis. They are cute and do the trick, but I'm looking for something that has a touch of youth and sexiness to it.

I was kinda thinking this would be a good middle ground.

Not too covered up, but enough to cover my problem area.

i think so...i'm 5 weeks post-partum and got this one with a print for the same reasons-to hide my little "pouch." we'll have to see this memorial day weekend if it does the trick. Chat Icon

I think you would have to try it on first it's hard to tell

I am just not a fan of this cut, you have to have a very specific body type. I don't even think it looks good on the model shown here

I have a lean body w/ a small pooch. I bought one, tried it on and nooooooooooooo not going to work.
I feel like I need to get my waist back before wearing it, not flattering at all

Maybe its just me, but I don't think monokinis are flattering on any body!
