Swimsuit for large ( . ) ( . ) s

I am a well endowed (34J) size 16/18 and I'm hoping to get back into swimming to get in shape post lockdown. I have a fairly boring Zoggs swimsuit which I have been wearing for years.

I'm looking for any recommendations for a good looking, high quality supportive swimsuit. I'd love to find something that I will feel as comfortable in at the seaside as in the local pool. I like retro styles and those that don't make my bust look like a monoboob. Your recommendations would be most welcome and links of course.
Thank you in advance,
Ma Hotfoot

Ugh that emoji use in the title was completely inappropriate

This company is great for supportive but stylish swimwear, can’t recommend them enough. Their suggested sizing goes up to HH but I know they’re a really inclusive approachable company so you could also contact them regarding sizing recommendations.

Have you tried Bravissimo? They sell swimming costumes now.

I like Pour Moi swimming costumes for big knockers. Also I didn't mind your thread title emoji.

Seafolly have underwired, supportive swimwear.

I'm an H cup and got this tankini set from matalan. It comes with more retro style bottoms, or small briefs. Cheap and more supportive that I expected.

@BasicallyBookish can I ask why?

Bravissimo do brands of swim wear fits my bigger chest quite well. Freya is one of my favourites.

Thank you all for your really helpful suggestions. I love the Deakin & Blue cross back and think a size 16 Henricks will fit so have ordered that. The Pour Moi swimming costumes are really lovely - bright and colourful. Im also considering a number of styles. I'm really surprised that Ive never come across this company before. I'm a long standing customer of Bravissimo but wasn't very inspired by the range last time I looked - however I have had another peek and there are a few things Im going to see if I can try on. Matalan was also a surprise and Im going to pop in at the weekend to have a browse in my local store. I'm looking forward to enjoying this amazing weather and going swimming in my funky new swimsuit(s)!

I second Deakin & Blue!

Another for pour moi - worth registering for the crap emails as they do have great sales too. I find them true to size in swimwear and as supportive as a bra.

I really hope you love the D&B one you’ve ordered.
