Swimsuit for the larger bust area(FF cup)

I’m new to swimming and now swim 5 times a week and the Freya costume I got for £50 is ruined after 2 months . Partially my fault as I washed it in washing machine without looking at label (ooops)
I’m a 32FF, size 10 and looking for recommendations for slightly cheaper sporty swimsuits if they are out there. Looks like they won’t last long according to a few Google searches and I don’t want to spend £50+ every 3-6 months!
Thanks

I get mine from Zoggs, usually in the sale. They have a piece with suggestions for bigger busts on their website here: https://www.zoggs.com/en_GB/news/post/new-products/supportive-swimwear-for-big-busts/

I'm smaller than you (34F) but have a high-neck Zoggs swimsuit that gives decent support and has lasted well with regular use (3 times a week at one point).

I’ve had a Freya one for years and have been swimming regularly in it. It’s starting to fade now but is still functional. I wash mine on a 15 min quick wash with no detergent.

I’ve been looking for a new one and most cup sized swimwear seems to be underwired. It’s frustrating as I don’t want wires.

Have a look at Pour Moi.
Good support for larger busts and they usually have great discounts in their sale. Amazon also have regular deals.

Having had this exact problem for decades (size 12, 32GG and frequent swimmer), three years ago I got so fed up looking for yet another swimming costume that I coughed up for one fro Deakin & Blue: https://www.deakinandblue.com/

Not cheap but it has been absolutely worth it - fantastically supportive (I have the largest cup size version) and perfect for sporty(ish!) swimming. It gets very regular use in pools and open water including the sea and is still as good as new. I give it a quick rinse every time I use it and do a rinse & spin without detergent every few weeks. I feel like I may never need another swimsuit ever again! Or at least not for years 😊

Personally found Freya to be the most robust, hand wash with small about non bio detergent and tepid water when get home and air dry, last years.

Also recommend to rotate 2 costumes if possible.
