Where to buy all-in-one swimming costume?!

Hi everyone.

Looking to get a swimming costume (ideally an all-in-one rather than a bikini) for a holiday in a couple of weeks.

Just on Oxford Street, and have tried Topshop, Tezenis, Gap (not the flagship store though) and H&M, but no joy.

Will also try Primark and Gap flagship store, and might go to White City Westfield tomorrow if I don't find anything today.

Any ideas about where else to try please?

Thanks :)

Elizabeth Hurley Beach. There is a sale section. Her bathing suits have all kinds of brilliant scaffolding and sucky-in stuff - they are genius and made me feel half-presentable on the beach last year.

White stuff - good for the big of bust.

Bravissimo - eye wateringly expensive but also good for the big big of bust.

Another vote for TK Max. Got a fab designer one for a large bust for only 16 quid.

Figleaves are fab- I've bought my new costume from there- currently on hols in France and my husbands eyes nearly popped out when I put it on! there are some lovely flattering styles

I've also heard very good things about all in one from M&Co.

Coco Bay is good

Really good range!

I bought a beautiful, shapewear type swimsuit in Tesco the other week for £9 and last week a gorgeous white control one in Primary for a fiver. Both actually look quite expensive.

New look has an amazing striped one in ! I want it . I love Ted baker swimwear x

I saw loads in Next and Sainsburys today.

Speedo (from sports centres, sports shops and online) are good if you are quite long in the body.

Supermarkets

LoniceraJaponica · 20/08/2017 19:21

Debenhams

I'm tall and long-bodied and I get mine from Tesco - really good suits for serious lap swimming, they last well.

Thanks so much for all of your recommendations, you're all brilliant :)

It didn't look like I was going to have much luck, but I went into House of Fraser at the last minute and found this.

Bought it as well Blush What do you all think?

Very nice - though do remember to put lots of factor 50 on your chest to avoid an interesting tan pattern!Grin
