Question
I was wondering what kind of fabric should i choose for swim suits?

Answer
HI Chioma,
A lot depends on the construction and style of the swim suit.

Some styles require a stretch fabric and others can use other fabrics.

Most of the time the pattern envelope will give suggestions on the fabric to use and if stretch, how much stretch is needed.
