I wear an underwired tankini from bravissimo. It is fab. Bit pricier than you were after, but definitely worth it. Bravissimo do lots of underwired costumes. They might just go down as small as a D...

They certainly do.

Can't remember how much I paid - it was a while ago. Look on their website www.bravissimo.co.uk - they have loads.

I am 5 11 and my midriff is safely covered by mine. I think some styles are shorter. I tried mine on in the shop.

meandmyflyingmachine · 29/06/2007 16:26

Mine is plain black.

Marks and Spencer had a good selection with underwired cups/specific cup sizes/bodyshaper etc and some were under £30. Just looked on the website and some are now out of stock.
