Help me to find a high waisted bikini…

Or some other suitable swimwear for my upcoming hols! I’m a size 12 but after abdominal surgery have a scar that runs right up my abdomen from my belly (stops about 4cm above). It’s quite faint above my belly button so would be happy to show it but definitely want to have a style where my belly button is covered (it’s off to one side 😂). Tankini/ one piece are the obvious options but I’ve seen some nice high waisted options while browsing and would like to try…just not sure whether they are high waisted enough if you see what I mean. Right anyway, hope someone can help! 😊

pour moi and asos have really nice high high wasted bikinis x

Also try a bikini skort or a wrap around skirt?

Cupshe have some lovely ones if you don’t mind that sort of retailer.

I bought some recently from there and wanted to return one as I bought more than I needed. While you can return them for a refund, their policy is to offer either 130% credit or a 70% cash refund to keep the items you didn’t want, which is fantastic deal so I ended up with a bargain!

Matalan had a good range

Thank you for your suggestions! Have been holiday browsing! So far my favourite is on Pour Moi…I like a vintagey print and there are some lovely ones on there but still lots to look at and try 😊

I like the white one but think my belly button might not be in the right place for it 😂. Will take a look at Cupshe too

M&S have quite a few high waisted bikini options.

I have the Por Moi Santa Cruz in Red the bottoms are apparently 'super high waist' . Although not vintage print I DID briefly imagine myself as some kind of 50s starlet in it for about 5 mins. Great design for a touch of confidence!

@BeesTreesSeas I have a swimsuit and a v. High waisted bikini from Cupshe. Really very good quality, especially for the price. Massive selection on website. Also nice to see ‘real’ peoples review photos.

Definitely cupshe , they have lots of lovely high waisted ones

Another vote for Matalan, I bought some high-waisted black bikini bottoms from
there recently and love them so much I might never go back to normal ones!

BeesTreesSeas · 03/06/2023 23:11

I have this one saved in my basket on Pour Moi but in a blue print! I’m hopeful!

I have these saved too! They look great and a good price but no tops that I can see. They are black though so guess I can look for a top anywhere! (Or start another thread 😂)
