I don't know what they have in store this year but I like the M&S swimming costumes. The ones that I bought last year and the year before were very slimming, with much elastic round the middle.

But they didn't have adjustable bra straps, plus also the cups aren't very big, but hey, much elastic around the middle!

I got control bottoms from peacock last summer - cheap and stayed in shape..

unfortunately needed to pay extra for boob specific tankini top though they had some of those as well...

You can often pick up Fantasie or Freya swimwear on eBay that is quite a bit discounted if you know your size.

Evans ones are actually quite nice.

Tkmaxx have several lovely costumes and tankinis online

Try Sainsbury's. I found a surprisingly good one for £16, with control panel for tummy and v comfortable cups. Not sure about adjustable straps though.

I've got this from Next & I am pleased with it (except I got burnt through the slit in the tummy)
