Swimming costume for a busty woman

20 replies

Musereader · 08/01/2020 12:44

I need to get a swimming costume before friday.

I do have some that i can use but they are inadequate as they either fall off my shoulders or strain to contain my bust (usually because of the damn padding)

Where sells swimming costumes for a size 14/16 38f busty woman that i can get my hands on by friday. Im in south greater Manchester if that helps. Could pay for next day delivery. But dont want to go over 30-40 quid unless really worth it.

I have this one and find it really comfortable and flattering. I find fantasie swimwear really good. Its a bit more than you wanted to pay but its great quality and lined and cup sized. Maybe you could go into the closest bravissimo to try on ?

I have the same issue. All the ones in M&S have padding in that won't fit. The only one I could get last time was one for people who'd had a mastectomy. It had no padding.

Brastop.com if you can get next day delivery.

This specific style does the job for me. No padding & no racer back. Half-price in sale.

I highly recommend Freya and Bravissimo

38f www.bravissimo.com/collections/all-swimwear/

I think usually i go up a back size so here's 40f www.bravissimo.com/collections/all-swimwear/

Hmmm not sure if that size filter stayed on

I think i can get to Manchester bravissimo after work by 5:30 today, (they close at 6), i have called ahead and confirmed they have at least something in my size - hopefully i can get something that fits. I just don't want my swimming top falling off in front of my dad which happens frequently with the current one i have.

I recently bought a Zoggs (38GG) from Bravissimo and it's fab - I actually look like I have a waist! I'm a size 18 so you may want to go down a back and up a cup size.

jackparlabane · 08/01/2020 14:10

Failing that a classic unpadded Speedo or similar from SportsDirect will be half the price and hold breasts in place - but not my tummy...

JackParl see my link above now with tummy support ! Mines block colours not patterned.

Thankyou for all the bravissimo recommendations got to Bravissimo in manchester 25 minutes ago and got www.bravissimo.com/products/lisbon-swimsuit-blackwhite-sw498bwh/ in a 40gg just before they closed at 6. I paid £54 but maybe it is worth it for a properly fitting swimsuit for the first time since my boobs exceeded a d cup at 24. We shall see how much it is worth it on friday evening.

I can't see a link but that's great. For me it's definitely worth it as a 34j xx
