Akward Question about Bikini Tops

Woodman725

i saw a bikini top once that you stick too you, and it doesnt have a back..
like a bikini style strapless bra..
but i think it was not waterproof..
which would be very impractical..
hmm.

*Best idea so far

Buy the tops and bottoms separately. Lots of places do that. You can find a top/style that holds in the girls and bottoms that flatter that part.

Thats what I do but I just can't find tops big enough.

I have big boobs and most of my bikini tops come from Old Navy. They have the halters with the thick straps, and I get an XL my my boobs never come out of the side because the halters with this straps cover a lot more. I also have a bandeau top from there that ties around the neck so it's kind of like the tube tops with the tie. it's great because it covers all the way around my boobs!

i dont know where you are, but maybe try the freya range. They do cup sizes and specialise in larger cup sizes, even if you have a small back. Im a 30F and my best bikini is from there

How about the tops that are like a bra? Shoulder straps instead of a halter that ties at the back of the neck.

This. Ties around your neck hurt and dig, but if the top is shaped approximately like a bra, and has an underwire, that's the best bet.

Same problem here! The solution I am doing this summer is a breast reduction in two weeks! Good luck to you on finding a swimsuit that works though!

I want a reduction now. I know after I have kids they are going to cause me a world of hurt. I love my boobs, it would just be easier if they were maybe a decent C instead of a Double D.

Bra sized bikini tops! Freya makes some good ones. Try this webiste: http://www.lindasonline.com/swimwear.html

I meant to add to this - sorry. I'm a 32F and this site, http://www.bravissimo.com (careful, you have to pay in British pounds here), or Nordstroms are the only place I'll buy either swimsuits or bras. If you have a Nordstroms nearby - I highly recommend them. Just go directly to the lingerie department and tell them what you want. They'll measure you and bring you all sorts of options.

In the UK we have Bravissimo which sell Freya Bikini tops seperately to bottom up to a HH cup I think.

I say be yourself and don't let societal norms force you to wear a top. Be a trend setter.

Have this problem as well since I am a 34 DD. Just found an amazing bikini top (ordered it 5 minutes ago actually lol) from Venus Swimwear. Venus has really nice full cut bra fitting bikini tops. Check out the site. Good luck!

I have the same issue. Find a halter top bikini, try victoria secrets. I had to get a large on top and a small in the bottoms. It fits well, and make sure the straps are thick and not string. Try A LITTLE padding in the cups....it helps hold the girls up.

same issue here! for bikini tops I go to California Sunshine, look it up online and see if you have a location near you... a bit pricey but they last for years and years.. though I haven't worn my bikinis in years I will soon when I lose more weight

Also - check out stores in the plus size section.. they tend to make the tops bigger and no one has to know its a plus size except you. I bought my tankini there in a plus size (the smallest size they had! woo!) and it basically covers my girls!

big boob girls unite! I was feeling really down about this lately bc shopping is such a disaster sometimes with boobs but am trying to love myself more!

Bikini shopping makes me cry. Everytime. It is honestly the most depressing thing I put my self through.

I don't have the kahona's to go topless....... yet. LOL

If you're British I'd say Freya bikini tops. They do a great range for D cups up. I have a 34E that I will wear surfing and it ain't going anywhere!

erin_elizabeth

I have the same problem, but I have found that Mossimo mix and match bikini tops at Target work great. They are cheap, too! Also, Body Glove makes bikinis that come in cup sizes.

kaitlinmre

I have a Venus Swimwear bathing suit, it's sized by your cup size and it fits amazing. :]

LizC26

Yeah, Venus and Victoria's Secret are both good places to get ones in D and DD sizes.....I just hate that you have to get them online

I am a large chested chick and I love bikinis. My biggest problem, or should I say problems, is that I cannot find tops that are big enough. I do not think "side boob" is sexy, nor do I think it is sexy when the strings dig into my neck making me look like a hunchback. Does anyone have any suggestions for tops? I'm even open to trying to make my own.

YOu have to see the movie but she has MAD sideboob and when i say side boob I mean that the boob hangs out the outer sides of the bikini top toward the armpit.
