Bathing suit shopping help
Hi guys!
I went to Marshall's to buy a bathing suit and could not find anything. The ones that would provide bust support are way too big for me. I need something that covers my tummy cuz I'm not having plastics till probably October.
Any suggestions on stores or websites that would have a small bathing with good bust support for my deflated tatas?
One thing that ticked me off is that they had tons of options if I were still my original 20/22 size. Where were they when I needed them back in the day?
Anyhow, I know this is not a major problem, but it's a new one in reverse. Maybe it's even an NSV!
Maybe Victoria Secret? You could buy a tankini with bra sizes in the top and separate bottom sizes..
I am still loving life with my sleeve! Been maintaining at or below goal for over 4 years!

i had a hard time with this too. problem was my thigh skin sags badly and i looked terrible in most suits so i ended up in one with a skirt even though its a smaller size i needed the coverage. so its pretty old lady looking. Got it at Sears which I don't especially recommend but our small town options are limited.
Might try the Land's End Catalog as they have a variety of fits and I think you can buy the pieces separate if the top and bottom sizes are different.. I too thought this would be a much easier task but everything i tried on looked so terrible. Years ago in my fat days I got some good suits from lands end and it may be where I go again. diane

I was at Kohl's yesterday having the same problem. The racks are already picked over though. No much left in my size 6 or 8 with enough support or coverage for the chest. They did have some tops with D and double D chest size but too big in the tummy section. I still need a skirt due to the Sharpia look of my theighs. Skirts can be found in 12, 14 and on up but they are too big, won't stay up.
I did order a couple of suit separates from Lands End because you can order separtes in different sizes. But I have to wait for them to come.
Good luck and let us know where you find the deals.

Thanks y'all! I will definitely try VS, Lands End, etc.... those places are not a point of reference for me for bathing suits.
I think a tankini is a good idea, and like Diane, I need a little skirt to hide the melty thighs.
My boyfriend told me to wear a bikini and all I could do was
Bless his heart!!!
Another option is to try a tankini top with bathing-shorts. Here's what I bought:

For me, a skirt reminds me too much of the "fat suits" I used to wear when I was larger. The shorts cover up the extra skin on my upper thighs, but gave some definition to my legs.
Best of luck!
