Where to go on high street for Bikini for bigger bust?

I've traipsed round them all and the supermarkets. Nothing suitable.
Look nice on hanger, look big enough and then look awful on.

I've had a nice tankini before from marks and nothing in there for me this year. Nor sainsburys and they are usually ok.

I'm 36gg and in the past had a size 20 and then adjusted the clasp on the back to make smaller.

All the bikinis this year just don't have enough cup fabric to cover me!

A lot of them, marks debenhams are really padded! Why do they think bigger cup sizes want more padding??

I'd really like to try on in a shop and it be affordable otherwise I'll be ordering online at bravissimo or bra places and paying three times as much 😩

Any suggestions please?

Boyd Avenue do separate bikini tops and bottoms so you can choose your specific bra size and separate bottoms. Wide range of bra sizes, much more than M&S.

DD gets a lot from here, she is 30G so difficult to find her size anywhere else

Unfortunately with bras that size you will need bravissimo.

DancingHipposOnAcid · 27/05/2018 11:01

Yikes, that should be Boux Avenue!

Pour Moi - i bought one from EBay for under £30, brand new with tags. I typed in the brand and then filtered by cup size. Totally recommend them.

Look on bra Stop they do larger cup sizes

You really won't get much choice on the high street at that size. Online is wonderful for larger cup sizes:

Brastop
Leila
Simply Beach
Ample Bosom
Airy Mary
Bravissimo
Belle Lingerie

Just a few of the ones online and they all hsve sale sections from past season. I'm a fan of Freya, Pour Moi and Moontide brands myself. Panache also lovely but I found the band came up small.

Thelingerieoutletstore online and on Ebay are fantastic and have some super bargains by named brands who specialise in whay you are after (Fantasie, Fauve etc).

Figleaves are great for larger bust swim wear.

LadyPenelopeCantDance · 27/05/2018 13:32

Realised you want to go high street but they are much more limited. This is nice, in your size and has 25% off atm.

Thank you for messages, I'll sit have a look tonight. I just thought I'd rather pay cheaper on high st than online that's all. But I'll look through your suggestions and names.
I always wear Fantasie bras as just a brilliant fit and Mage me look smaller and give nice shape.

Brastop or Asda. I got a lovely one from Asda last year.

Fantasie do swimwear OP. Try previous season sale stuff.
