Swimsuit with bra that isn’t £££££

[Mushroo]

Has anyone found a swimsuit / tankini with a proper bra that doesn’t require a second mortgage?

The ones on bravissimo are £65 plus (most are about £80) and I just can’t justify it.

I need a size 32GG and would ideally just like a swimming costume that is under £50!

Brastop or Simply Be have some reduced. But honestly this is the worst time of year for it. End of summer you can get great deals.

I've been looking too.

I’ve bought a couple in the sale at brastop.com and they’ve been fine.

I generally go for bikini / Tankini and then buy separate bottoms from somewhere cheaper but I don’t care about being completely matching so I understand that might not suit everyone!

Thanks both! I’m also happy to get cheap bottoms so that’s a good tip.

There are a few bravissimo ones on Vinted that might suit you but check each for the actual size rather than filter

vinted! Didn’t even think of that, thank you!

ASOS has some too

Currently wearing a cheap as chips one from George at Asda. Proper bra sizes.

Try Curtis's. Under 50.for supportive well.covering tankini

Ebay has a lot of past season Bravissimo brands - Freya, Fantasie, Panache etc.

Curvissa. AUTOCORRECT!!!!!

I’m a 30GG and went down a cup size and up a back size to get one for £12 in Matalan! 32G but fits quite well 🎉🎉🎉

Brastop or some of the eBay lingerie shops. I bought an Elomi one on eBay for £44 recently. It usually retails at £80. I'm a 36H so can never buy high street swimwear.

There’s a bravissimo page on facebook where people sell new or 2nd hand clothes/ swimwear etc - try there I have just bought a new swimsuit (with tags) for £30 😀

Lands End. I have a couple of plain tankinis that are surprisingly good fit (I’m 36HH). I always wait for the 40% off all the full price stuff.
TBH I’ve been struggling with bravissimo recently. Ordered a 38H bikini top (their own brand) and couldn’t even fasten it. Let’s not even mention the overflow at the front 😂

I have this one and it's incredibly flattering!

Curvy Kate I got 2 from there

Debenhams - if you can manage not to be driven to the brink of madness by the slowness of their website!

Last year I ordered a bikini on there - I ordered 6 tops (same design in 2 different band sizes/3 cup sizes) and 2 x bottoms in each of 2 different sizes. I then sent back 5 tops and the bottoms I didn't need.

Their Gorgeous range is especially good for small back/bigger cup ladies. And they're on topcashback.

I sometimes just wear a bra under my swim gear.

I second Curvy Kate. I bought two lovely swimsuits from their last year and they fit so well and are supportive.

Look on Vinted. I’m a 32F and find loads on there for low prices.

I agree with simply be. They usually have a huge selection and if you have an account, you can try multiple sizes and only pay for what you keep.

I’d like to find one too, I don’t have big boobs but they’re saggy as fuck so just feel they need a bit more support.
Sadly lots of places mentioned only cater for bigger boobs (obviously fantastic for those with bigger boobs! Just rubbish for me with my lacklustre ones 😂).

I’m a 34GG and bought all mine from Matalan. They are sized for GG and underwired and only £12.50 for a top!

Curvy Kate. I’m a 36hh and had lots of nice ones from there. Check out the reviews before buying as you may need to size up or
down on some of them

Those Matalan ones look great - gutted they only go down to a 32 back. When will mainstream retailers start realising more of us are small back/bigger cups??
