Sensory Swim Suit

I'm not sure if this is in the right place, but I'm hoping so.

My dgd11 loves swimming but has some sensory issues around tight clothes, so socks, knickers, swimming costumes etc. We have been through just about every type of knicker available trying to find some she is comfortable in.

Swimming costumes present a similar problem, she was ok with 'normal' ones for a while but is struggling with them now, we tried rash vests and shorts, tankinis too. I'm thinking she could wear a cotton swimsuit, so looser than lycra, but I'm not really sure if they're available?

Any other suggestions would be gratefully received too, I want her to enjoy the water again. Thanks

Have you tried seamfree or seamless swimwear (and knickers if you haven’t found an acceptable style of those)?
