Swimming costumes with back bra fastening

8 replies

So I was going shopping for swimming costumes...
In bravissimo
So a fair few had the back fastening at the back that you need to do
I couldn't for the life of me do the fastening!!

Is it just me or can anyone else not do up these fastening for these type of costumes??

I dont like them. They make fat pop out around them and ruin the line.

Don't mind the fit if you actually find one that fits.

Just couldn't seem to do up any!!

Hate them, I can never do the fasteners and I agree with pp that they make any fat around that area so much more visible.

Well I'm glad I'm not the only one who finds it tricky!

They seem to do up the wrong way somehow! I've got a couple of Bravissimo tankini tops and my DH usually has to do it up!

Yes that's what I was thinking! I want to be able to do it myself! 😂

I think my body's not right

I've found one costume that fit me. One out of all of them. (No back fastening).
Which does look good when it's on. Have to say it's not that easy to get on and off though. If I put any weight on I'm probably stuck!
