Am 6ft2 and leggy but sadly also quite chubby around hips and tummy. Size 16 but I am on a last ditch attempt to lose a stone before Aug 11th.

Need a good swimming cozzie.

this neck shape and empire type cut suits me oh and it's bodyshaper

I reckon you need something slightly padded in the bust if you're flat chested - your second example might flatten your chest even more.
Tesco have some lovely cozzies at the mo and tankinis - which would cover your tummy more but still look good.

Like your first example very much.

Thanks luciemule - I am going into town tomorrow and will check them out in the flesh so to speak.

I have a M&S bikini which I wore a bit last year (was a stone lighter then)and the top is similar to the black one, it was a good style.

okay - don't judge

I got this to wear as a kind of joke to my daughter's friend's swimming party (I loked fab -all other mums in black speedos)

It was suppoed to be a jokey one hit wonder but it is amazingly flattering - I am like you body shape and it really works on me - top has some padding and overall effect is quite 50's curvy.

I have got a couple of bikinis from last summer, one black and a bright patterend one.

Do you reckon if I eat next to nowt and do my Davina DVD everyday between now and 11th August I might get away with them again?

cut right back on carbs (unless your BF) and that will flatten your stomach within a few days by loads. And drink loads of water too.

Lovely bikini...
I love primark.

I got 2 good costumes recently from e-bay, they were bargains.

Sorry BBB - the bikini is very cute - very slimming, especially around the top of the leg .

Now stop sulking and thank you as your bikini pic has spurred me on to lose some weight
