No swimming costumes fit dd

Shes just turned 11 and really tall but also really skinny.
Swimming costumes just dont seem to fit her at all so we have always had to put her in bikinis. If it fits around her body then it is no where near long enough and if it fits her length ways then there is too much baggy material around her body
We need to find her a navy or black one for secondary in september.

Any idea where we can try?

Might be worth contacting these people with her measurements and seeing if they can help

get a bigger one that fits lengthways and take it in?

  • should just be a straight seam...

She might be better in a tankini. Would the school allow that?

My very skinny 9 yr old wears Tesco or asda schoolwear costumes. They fit better than anything else. She wears age 12 in height but age 8 in waist if that helps!

I always use proswimwear. You can get some reasonably priced professional swimwear often reduced. Best for quality and brands. I’d be surprised if you didn’t find anything suitable on their website. My daughter swims for our local club and there are girls there if all shapes and heights and that’s where we all buy from.
