Bikini for extremely fussy petite woman

9 replies

TooMinty · 20/02/2024 20:00

As per title! I have loads of requirements and I'm petite (5ft 45kg) so this is going to be tricky...

No clasp or ties, top should pull on.
Padded or slightly push up.
Sporty - can withstand paddle boarding.
Bottoms need to be shorts but fitted ones not loose/baggy.
Not white or a pale colour because I'm extremely pale!
Not keen on floral or busy patterns.

Thank you for your help 😊

Sports Direct - you'll find things like a Puma racer back swim top and a pair of shorts/jammers for under £40.

Will take a look, thanks! Do you know what the sizing is like?

Lands End. They have a full range of bikini tops and bottoms to mix and match. They will definitely have something to suit you.

Generally the push up ones will have a clasp. For more sporty ones look at decathlon

Sorry, first link is dd cup and has a clasp. Nae use. Just thought it was sporty with a bit of lift.
But anyway...Lands End.

I'm not sure on the padding front, but Deakin and Blue have mix and match bikinis with a long shorts option and they are super quality

Decathlon and Lands End look slightly big size-wise. I am not a full sized adult really, I often buy from kids ranges but can't really do that for a bikini! Haven't bought swimwear for years but for context the last pair of jeans I bought were ladies xxs, I get age 13 stuff from Mountain Warehouse.
