sorry, no advice! Bravissimo are a bit pricey (I have same problem - 34 DD) but they are worth the money imo. I bought a couple of bikinis from them about 3 yrs ago and they are still great despite loads of wear/washing. Very supportive but still pretty. Have they got anything in their sale or are you too late?

oxocube · 01/08/2006 07:25

just checked their sale stuff giraffeski and nothing left

I think in last weeks Sat Guardian family section the personal shopper was about just this and she recommended a woman who hand made bikinis to your size and was really cheap!
DPs just whizzed of with the recycling tho so this isn't much help really - sorry!
Oh for the days when I was only an E cup.

If you live near gunwharf quays in POrtsmouth there's a triumph outlet shop there that was doing 2for1 on swimwear.
They may be a bit old ladyish though.

I am 36dd and get all my bikinis from BHS and Asda which are cheap and cheerful.

I have a similiar problem and surprisingly enough George at Asda was where I got a decent bikini that fitted me well(I'm a 38E)for £10. Check it out anyway, you may be lucky.

ooh no, i dont do string! mines a lovely underwired-cover-big-norks number.

MrsMuddle · 03/08/2006 19:44

Bravissimo are expensive, but I just bought a black top from there then bought black bottoms (my bottom is a normal size!) from Tesco. Could you try this?

beckybrastraps · 03/08/2006 19:56

I did the same! Only my bottoms were from Next.

cosmicdancer · 05/08/2006 15:09

Not sure if you are still looking for bikinis Giraffeski but you are the same size as me 34E.

My stuff came from Next and I really like it. I ordered bikini and tankini tops but I think I prefer the tankini as it just looks more supportive and flattering for me.

The green is a gorgeous colour and very now but it looks really nice in black as well.

green tankini here
