buying a bikini (UK)

kennie2 · July 2011

i need a new bikini in about 32C or size 10.
i'd like one that looks like a bra (for good support)
and a reasonable price (£20max for the top)
could anyone suggest any good shops?
i feel like ive looked everywhere!
(h&m, m&s, new look, next, asda, tesco)
i just cant seem to find one with good support in my size anywhere!

Debenhams, they have a good stock, I bought one in the sale last week, half price £17 for both parts. They seemed to have more in store than on line. Figleaves on line has plenty to choose from too.

Try Debenhams, or if you shop online then figleaves.com is great for bralike bikinis. If you have a big Asda where you are then try that too, you'll be suprised what swimwear they do

edit>> looks like girlbirdie got there before me hehe

ive looked on debenhams earlier and they had only really horrible ones! and we have a small asda so nothing decent there. i'll look on the websites tho

I'd go to a sports shop or search online for sport bikinis - you can get some really nice bikinis from companies like Shock Absorber that offer loads of support. Sloggi also does sports and underwired bikinis.

(I'm currently using Zoggs bikini and tankini combinations - really awesome, look great and stand up to everything from triathlon training and diving to just lazing around the pool.)

looking on asos now. still nothing that takes my eye.
went out and got a magazine for inspiration tho

I am surprised you can't find one, It always seems all the nice ones are in the small sizes, especially small bra sizes. I wish I could get any bikini to fit me, but nobody does anything nice in my bra size, even in bras I don't get much choice, so swimwear is pants...bloody boobs lol

Bravisimo do very good bikinis but they are designed for bigger boob'd ladies so i'm not sure what their smallest size is...may be worth checking out their website though, i love their bras. I've heard good things about M&S too

hope you find something

Freya bikinis at figleaves.com are nice supportive ones, not sure what's on there at the moment though. A couple of my friends have been wearing really pretty bra like ones from asda and matalan.
