High waisted bikini

8 replies

Does anyone have any recommendations for a good high waisted bikini with a fairly supportive top? I like the look of the brand Pour Moi, but it’s slightly out of my price range at the moment.

If it’s any help - I’m a size 12-14 with massive bum and a squishy c section belly with overhang, about a 36C bra, but a small waist. I haven’t worn a bikini since pregnancy, but have been doing lots of yoga recently so starting to feel more confident and would love to wear one on my holidays!

Have a look at bra stop they’ve got a fab sale on at the mo. I just bought this

What's your price range? I have a nice pour moi set that I picked up at brastop for £36.

Not sure about support but Toast are doing a flattering black high waist bikini at the moment

Figleaves have a number of high waisted bikinis and you can buy them as seperates in different sizes. In my opinion though it’s a pity that so many have such robust bum coversge to go with the high waist.

A little tip: Go for a metal clasp, plastic ones go brittle and can snap. Fortunately, I was somewhere where topless was more or less the norm, but otherwise it could have been awkward.

Thanks for all the the recommendations. Managed to find a pour moi one that wasn’t too pricey. Fingers crossed it looks ok!

I've got some good pour moi ones cheap off eBay. Worth a look.

Topshop had some brilliant high waist ones a couple of years ago not sure if they still have similar style.

Careful! From my experience Pour Moi sizing is all over the place.
