Where Can I Buy 100% cotton swimwear?

[misslou100]

I'm on the look out for 100% cotton swim wear for myself - either a swimsuit or a bikini. Seem really hard to find! I'm allergic to non cotton so cant have anything with lycra in it. If you know of anywhere do let me know.
Thanks very much

Can't you wear underwear? Surely that is a cotton bikini?

I have to wear 100% cotton underwear which I can get in M and S

So can't you wear the 100% cotton underwear swimming. If its plain it won't look too underweary. (not white though!)

If I were you I'd be adapting underwear TBH. I'm sure somewhere sells 100% cotton swimwear but goodness knows where and it's bound to cost a fortune.

How about buying what you'd normally wear, but then the bra 1 band size bigger and one cup size small (so the cup actually stays the same size), dieing it a colour you like and replacing the hook fastening with a bikini fastening. WOuld be best to remove the strap adjusters and sew the straps on at the correct length. You could make and add a cotton flower to the pants and maybe the bra too. Or beading, some decoration in any case.

Voila!

How to make a fabric flower

Bikini fasteners - clear so as not to limit colour Choice.

Maybe double up the pants, one pair sewn inside the another to solve any transparency issues.

I don't think you will find it. Surely the salt or chlorine will cause more problems than the fabric, especially as you will only be wearing it for a short period of time before changing back into cotton shorts and vest or whatever. Cotton will bag in the water and look rubbish.

Have you considered becoming a nudist? In some places, particularly Germany and Scandinavia, I understand this is very popular.

One of the best time-saving solutions I think is this website: Amazon . Always so many choices and great prices.
