Swimsuit - long body

4 replies

Bunny2021 · 02/04/2022 22:35

Despite only being 5ft4 I have a weirdly long body - normal swimsuits don’t fit my body (I end up with a wedgie or flashing my boobs).

I want to get into swimming again and looking for a functional swimsuit - I’ve looked at a lot of places but all the longer length ones I’ve seen are more relaxed/chill by the pool types.

Can anyone suggest longer torso suits?!

Thanks x

I have the same problem. Next do some in their Tall range, but they're all high leg and boob flashy or strapless.

I bought DD a Speedo tankini, which is brilliant, it has short short style bottoms and a racer back. I really want one for myself, but they're put of stock everywhere. You need to go about 2 sizes bigger for Speedo, I think.

I don't know why it is so hard to get a normal long sports suit or sport tankini that you can actually swim in! I'm currently using a swimsuit that is too large to get the length and it still has a bit of a Borat vibe. Grin

I’m using a Boden tankini. It’s very sturdy Smile
Would you consider a tankini?
