Kate Upton's Vogue bikini - I want a budget version please

I know the original is Dolce and Gabbana so not really in my teeny budget but I can't be arsed to diet or exercise for my holiday and the style looks just the thing to cover up my less than flat tummy and I have big boobs so nobody's going to be looking that closely at the giant pants.

Any suggestions please?

Linky please.

She looks stunning doesn't she? I've seen 'big pant' style bikinis in River Island and Top Shop.

This is her. I am fatter with a face like a bag of spanners also blonde.

Very cheap bottom half in BHS! www.bhs.co.uk/en/bhuk/product/snake-print-high-waist-bikini-bottom-1086349

I'm not a huge fan of snake print although that is a good shaped bottom from BHS. I need something more structured in the top. Imagine two zeppelins crossed with Nurse Gladys Emmanuel...

Kate has quite an unusual body. Did you watch 'The Other Woman? Great film!

Are there any pics of her standing up?

iK8 · 14/05/2014 22:53

Not in that particular bikini, at least not that I could find. You can find pics of her looking like a widowed Carmen Miranda in a hideous dress standing at The Met Ball.

I haven't seen the film, only trailers. I'd never even heard of her before the Vogue cover and even then I thought "ooh, that looks like it would cover a multitude of sins while making the most of the good bits". Blush

Not sure if the top has enough coverage?

Try ASOS - I saw lots of mix and match big pants style bikinis.

iK8 · 15/05/2014 22:57

The Gossard one is good, although I am worried I might have someone's eye Wink

I had a look at ASOS first but none of them were really grabbing me. I like the retro prints of the D&G one and the Gossard.

Thank you for all the ideas :)
