so where can I find a swimsuit...

... that is 34gg and not black.

I have tried everywhere I can think of and found nothing.

We're going for a holiday in the sun for the first time since the dss were born and I really want something bright and cheerful. I'm definitely in no shape for a bikini

Have you looked at:

Bravissimo
Figleaves.com
Landsend

because that is where I would try first for, um, coverage and norkage and range of colours...

Don't laugh but I actually bought one from BHS last year.

I can honestly say, hand on heart, that I've never bought anything from there before but when I was out looking for a swimsuit I walked pat the store and could see loads in there so went in.

Good selection of one-piece ones IIRC

have a look on ebay, there is one khaki and sorry i know you don't want black but two in black - hth - shop.ebay.co.uk/items/?_nkw=34gg+swimsuit&_sacat=0&_trksid=p3286.m270.l1313&_odkw=34gg+swimsuit&_osa cat=0

hi
thanks for the suggestions.
No luck at Bravissimo or figleaves.
I don't know landsend - do they do cup sized ones? I can't see them.

I'm starting to feel like a freak. Am I really such an odd size that I can't find something in my size?

Have tried ebay too.
Will bid on the black one if nothing else comes up.
BHS don't seem cup sized. IME these just don't work for me.

thank you ladies.
keep the suggestions coming

I just bought an E cup one from M&S and its hot pink. I know that there were E cup ones there too. Didn't look any further but they might have something.

Some here

Tankini here or here

Another vote for BHS cossies here.

Only item I ever buy from there.

Got 2 last week - supportive and hold me in in the right places. Loads of choice. I tried on 12 different styles, all under £30.

CMOTdibbler - you're a genius. thank you!
I think that the "shanghai swimsuit" is my only option.

as for the rest - am i missing something?

Lands End - still can't find any that are cupsized
BHS - ditto
M&S dont' go up to gg
Watermelon - none of the ones that show as coming in gg seem to be available.

thanks again for your suggestions.
