Bathing suits for D cups

Was not sure where to post this topic. I have been trying for over a month to find a black tankini top that meets the following criteria:
1. solid black in color
2. has straps (nothing that ties around the neck or strapless)
3. fits a D cup
I have literally looked everywhere. I am not small enough for a bikini, but am not really "plus size" anymore, except for "the girls" which won't fit in a regular top, gotta have underwire support. I wear an insulin pump, so a one piece is out b/c I have nowhere to put my pump and getting to my tummy to unhook it when I swim, is just too weird in a one piece.
The sites I have checked include, but are not limited to: Kohl's, Sears, Kmart, Cato, Lands End, LL Bean, Speedo, Walmart, Everything but Water, etc.
Most of what I find is missing at least one of my criteria. I am not sure of my suit size, but I think I am a 12 or 14 now. Any suggestions would be most appreciated! :happy:

These are good sites, too.I love Freya! I have a number of bras and swim tops from them. They are also sold on Amazon.
They're the only swimsuit tops I'll wear now. Nothing holds them up and in place better!0 -
http://www.bravissimo.com is a bra company that sells swimwear in larger cup sizes. They're England based, though.
http://www.landsend.com/ offers some of their styles in larger cup sizes, too0 -
No ideas, just had to say that I'm a little disapointed you didn't find something at LL Bean. A year or two ago, they had a pretty good selection of swimsuits, including tankinis for D cup. Now it looks like all they have are one pieces with fake sarongs or one-piece tankini "style" suits. Too bad...
Looks like Macy's has some.0 -
Wow! so many ideas! I will check them all out this weekend when I am at home and have time to browse the sites. Keep em coming! I am going to keep looking till I find what I want! You gals rock! :happy:0

also try competitive swimsuit brands - they usually have 2 pieces and the tops can fit like a sports bra and I am sure there are tankini styles.
I find a speedo is more than enough support for my DDs but actually need very little support - I'm weird0 -
like this Speedo
http://store.speedo.com/p/tankinis/womens-monogram-tankini-boyleg/808736
it has bust support
other sports brands for swimming would be arena, nike, adidas and TYR 0 -
My daughter is a tripple D. I buy hers at either Everything but Water or California Swimwear since they have stores in the malls and she can try on. They have a lot of choices in the larger sizes. Also LOVE Venus but don't order often because of the pain of sending back something that doesn't fit. No patience for that!0

I love my suit from Lane Bryant because it has underwire so my boobs still look perky! If you're under a 36 though, they probably don't have anything for you (a good problem to have!). I actually bought a pretty decent tank suit top halter style from walmart, too, which was a shocker. It doesn't have those crappy boob pads that are funny shaped and it pushed and pulled the twins into a nice position.0
