Massive boobs - do you wear non cup size swimmers?

I've ordered and returned a load of bikini tops from brastop, curvykate, bravissimo etc as nothing quite right - cup sides gaping etc despite trying loads of sizes

I have 1 from a few years ago that's fine

Are there any amazing options that are size sizes rather than cup sizes that would work.on a 36hh?

ASOS is amazing for this, and have a huge range.

Are you wanting swimming type or posing by the pool?
Curvy Kate do an amazing triangle bikini (hear me out!) and a swimsuit version, I'm a 34K and can wear it happily which is a bloody miracle

Just wanted to report back @PeloAddict

The triangle bikini top is amazing! My boobs are hooked without wires -.I'm astounded!

Wasn't so keen on the swimsuit version so I'll send that back

😀😀

@Workyticket yay! It's amazing how it fits really, I was stunned to get a triangle bikini in a K cup

So would you normally be a 36?

Im a 34FF in Fantasie so I don’t know whether to go 34 F/FF or 34 G/GG or go up to 36. Mmmm. Mind you looks like free returns so I guess I can get a few and then return that’s good….

CaramelEmporium · 18/07/2022 16:59

That’s the one I’m looking at @Workyticket
I’ve never dared to dream about a none wired one before 🤣

PeloAddict · 18/07/2022 17:04

This is the one I have (it's an older colouring) and she's a similar size (I think a 34K/KK)
I mean I won't be sprinting for a bus in it but it gives lift!

I'm normally a 36 but a 36 would definitely have been too tight.

I returned a load of stuff to them last week no issues at all so I'd definitely order a few to try

I've been wearing mine all day and my bojbs haven't moved!

Actually I have a slight problem 🙈 the connectory bit (there's probably a proper name!) Isn't great

It slipped put earlier and I'd rather not plop a boob out - any ideas on making them stay in properly??

I'm 34ff and have two swimsuits from boden. They keep my boobs in very nicely and one is a plunge style Grin

@PeloAddict and @Workyticket i know this is an old thread but how did you both get on with the Curvy Kate twist and shout? I'm looking to buy some new swimwear. I'm a 34GG/H and size 14 to 16. I'm thinking of getting the twist and shout in 36G/GG and are the bottoms generous or small? Sorry to resurrect an old thread but I've been frantically looking for swimwear advice. 😊
