DD+ Bikini shopping

Hey,

so no idea where to put this but I have just over a week to find a bikini top (34FF/G UK).

High street bikinis are hell, went all the way into central LDN to find nothing. My boobs clearly aren't losing ANY weight (run on both sides of the family)

anyone know where I can get (pretty) cup sized bikinis ? (would love a triangle on if it could fit as well!)

I REALLY don't want another blehh-ish bikini top

    Freya does cup sized bikinis in your size and I think Figleaves carries them. However, I personally don't find the bra-top style very sexy- I think they look kind of matronly, at least on me.

    I just buy triangles which tie at both the back and neck in a big size (usually the large- for comparison, I'm generally an XS in regular tops or a US 0 to 2). Then they cover my boobs but are snug enough around my back because I can tie them as tight as I like. I'm a 28FF and that's what works for me.

    ETA: here's the Figleaves link:

    Agreeing with everything said here. I only buy triangle tops in the XL (i wear a medium) and that usually does the job. I know you said you're tried the triangle in a big size but...maybe try even larger if you can? IDK, the triangle top was my only real suggestion, lol.

    I've had good luck with Ujena.com and Venus.com....not sure what their international shipping is but they have stylish bikini tops that will fit DD and larger. Good Luck!

    www.herroom.com carries a lot of larger cup size swimsuits, especially with smaller band sizes.

    I'm a 36DD and I've bought a couple of the Freya styles. This site has some cute ones. And you can buy separates which is good. :)

    This has also been a struggle for me-Especially this summer. Victoria Secret was my favorite in high school, but I feel like their quality and sizing has gone down since then(or I have just grown). I bust their tops to the seams when I try to fit in them. I have been trying to find a good bikini that will fit me without costing 100+ dollars. It is so frustrating! This won't help you much now, but honestly I find my best deals toward the end of summer when there is nothing but miss-matched sizes left. I once ordered from Speigal a top that was 16 with an 8 bottom. Both were only 9 dollars. The best purchase EVER! I usually wear the Maidenform minimizer bras. I totally wish they would make bikinis. Is there an exercise to make these damn things smaller? If so, I need info on it now! Haha...

    I have to have ALL my bras and cup sized bikinis shipped to me (size 28GG) so I feel your pain. Usually from the UK or Poland. Currently I have a cute Freya bikini I got from herroom.com (shipped from here in the US). I also like to shop from Bravissimo (shipped from the UK). If I give up looking for cup sized bikinis I usually get the triangle style from Target in size XL and cut the tie straps to make them shorter to fit me.
