Bathing suit question for busty gals.

Asked by awomanscorned (11261points) May 7th, 2011 from iPhone

Where do you find your suits? I have the hardest time. I’ve yet to find a bikini with enough support. I hate one pieces but will wear them if they’re cute and I absolutely have to. I like tankinis the best but I have a hard time because the tops have to be big to fit my chest and then I have a ton of extra material around my stomach. It looks awful. Any suits you’ve found that don’t look matronly?

LL Bean and Land’s End sell separate tops and bottoms of all sizes, support and shapes. You can mix and match.

I don’t buy my suits anywhere consistently, so that part I probably can’t help with. However, I buy a tankini every year with a halter top. They seem to offer the best support, and still look cute.

I have never been able to find one to fit me well. I absolutely hate it.

I just reread your question and noticed what you said about there being too much fabric around the middle. I have the same problem (also with button down shirts, coincidentally), and I usually just rig it or fix it myself. So I guess my answer isn’t especially helpful.

I actually have a dd chest and end up at the outlet store who has California Sunshine I get to buy the top that fits and the bottom that fits. I love the two pieces they have with the underwire myself because it gives me the support I need and plenty of coverage.

Try bravissimo its a uk company who specialize in clothes for ladies with larger chests but ‘normal’ body shapes a bit expensive but I think they have a sale on swim suits at the moment.
I am an f cup and uk size 14 waist so often find that tops fit boobs but too big on waist or fit waist and don’t button up

I second Lands End. See here for suits designed for larger busts.

Victoria’s Secret has good looking suits you can buy in separates. I’m bigger on top than the bottom and petite framed so I buy a M tankini and then take in the sides or back seam on a machine. If bikini then I go for underwire styles because triangle thingies just squish the boobs all weird if you try to to wear them tight enough to hold the boob in place.

My favorite style for booby-girls is an underwire top with a crossover style fabric across the bust and flat adjustable straps that buckle/hook in back rather than strings to tie.
