Swim wear for larger ladies

Hi, I'm thinking about learning to swim. I'm 40 and terrified of water. Also I'm a size 22-24, what do larger ladies wear? I'm not comfortable showing everything!

I find the Bravissimo tankinis are a good length.

Elomi swimwear has really high back and supportive tummy panel. Often bargains to be found on eBay try belle lingerie shop on there. Trouble with a lot of the bra sized suits is that they assume your tummy is a size 12! I know this from bitter experience

George at Asda range go up to size 28. Their swimwear is very reasonably priced and good quality. Here is a link with size 22 selected, so have a play around with the options:

I've had swimware from Asda before too. It's not expensive and they have reasonable style that I don't feel over exposed in. Well done for being brave!

I find I need ones with cup sizes rather than dress sizes.
