36 GG swimwear

So I've always struggled to find good fitting swimwear due to my large bust.A couple of years ago I discovered Floozie in Debenhams (Sadie Frosts line). I was shocked and delighted with the fit and bought some lovely swimwear. I'm heading of on holiday on July and would love a couple of new bikinis but as Debenhams has now closed down (Ireland) I'm at a loss where to try and find good, recommend by others swimwear. Any suggestions?

I got a couple of 34G bikinis from Next the year before last. I don't know what their biggest cup size was, but might be worth a look.

Otherwise the usual places for bigger sizes eg Bravissimo, Brastop.

@LubaLuca, I never thought of Next as I never buy from there. I'm heading out today so will have a look. I was looking at brastop yesterday but didn't know if they were any good. Bravissimo are a good fit but just so expensive. I know the ones I got from Floozie were on sale which was great as they would have been quite expensive too.

Bravissimo or Figleaves (now at Simply Be). Expensive but good quality. I am the same size as you and I actually got a non wired swimsuit from Next for £25. It is a shape enhancer/tummy support one. The cups are big enough to hold my boobs in.

@MikeWozniaksMohawk, two votes for Next, definately going to check them out today. I wasn't aware that Bravissimo and Figleaves are now on Simplybe, another one to Google later.

Curvy Kate do swimwear which I've not tried but I find their underwear fits really well. I'm a 36G and they go up to a K cup.

Look at Bravissimo.

Another vote for Next- look on their website as they do other brands too.
I'm 36GG/H and I got a gorgeous tankini in their sale.

I never look anywhere else for swimwear now.

Bravissimo have a permanent sale section on the website, check that?

Great suggestions, really appreciate it. I just hate the thoughts of spending a lot of money on swim wear if it's not a good fit so it's great to get recommendations from everyone. I will be definately be checking out the sale section on the more expensive brands. @BiniorellaSun,Fantasie and Freya are probably my favourite brands for bra's so hopefully the swimwear is the same.

I'm a 34H or 36GG depending on fit and BraStop is my go to for swimwear. I managed to get a Curvy Kate swimsuit for £18 not too long ago. They always seem to have some in their sale section.
