Long body, halter neck, not high cut at the sides where the leg is. Low key colour preferably black, could have some nice trim or embellishment to make it a bit more quirky.

Think I'm asking for the moon on a stick, so failing that, could someone please tell me where to look for long bodied costumes, as that's the most important part of my criteria.

I always used to wear bikinis, but post dc2 I feel the wrinkly skin on my belly may be here to stay, and it doesn't fill me with confidence to have that on show to all and sundry.

Debenhams do longer length costumes

Thank you, I'll have a look on their website.

Oops, just realised I've name changed since starting this thread.

Lands End do "long" swimsuits, but they've only got plain black at the moment. They're generally very good quality, though.

Here it is!!!! Long Tall Sally is great for swimming costumes if you want a long body. Long Tall Sally

I have a beautiful swimsuit for this website

I have the very thing - it was from Asda and is actually a tankini which has a roll top waist which I roll up, the the top overlaps it so it looks like a swimsuit with the convenience of two pieces.

Thank you for all the links. Gutted that long tall Sally one is only available in size 22. Lands end one looks good but I need more of a deep v neck as I have no small breasts and that shape would just flatten them and make me feel like a girl. Love the retro suits website. Worry about a tankini as I wouldn't want to risk any chance of top and bottom parting and revealing wrinkly tummy. It's really bad, I'm only 4 weeks postpartum though so hopefully there's a chance it might improve??

Had another look at that m and s one, I dismissed it at first due to print but I think I'll see if I can try it on, looks like it could be a flattering shape. Need one that's sturdy for exercise type swimming, not just looking good
