A guide to the best swimwear for large busts

From Amazon, the F FLYRONG Swimming Costume comes in at top spot, with loads of tried and tested reviews stating that this is a supportive choice for ladies with a bigger bust. There's an endless amount of designs to browse, and if patterned isn't your thing - there's also classic colour options instead. Holiday pending.

Customer review: "I've got to say after ordering 6 different swimsuits from multiple places I was a bit sceptical about ordering this one because non of the other felt like they would keep everything covered whilst at a waterpark on holiday! However, I'm so glad I ordered this one as it was perfect! Kept everything where it was supposed to be and felt so secure, easily one of my best buys, the colour is so nice and the tummy control works wonders, the cross over straps were so easy to use/adjust and helped with supporting the chest. I'm a size 12-14, 36DD bust and ordered a size large as I found most other costumes were to small for my chest, but this was perfect!"

A gorgeous bikini top, this Full-Busted Underwire Swimsuit Bikini Top from Smart & Sexy can be shopped at Amazon. There's three pretty designs you can wear, each compromising of a thick strap and underwired balcony design for plenty of lift in the bust. Va-va-voom.

Customer review: "Large breasted ladies this bathing suit top is for you!!! I am a 38DDD and this is the best bathing suit top I have ever owned. Fits just like a bra (got my regular size) and wow, it holds the ladies in place and love the 2 straps at the back which holds in the back fat. It’s sexy on and I feel as though I could wear it all day."

You know you're getting quality when you're getting a swimsuit from professional swimwear brand, Speedo. The Iris Sports Swimsuit is a favourite on Bravissimo, offering a range of cup sizes from an E to a K. It comes with a high neck design for plenty of coverage, and hidden inside are bra-sized, wired, non-padded balconette cups to keep you super supported as you swim.

Customer review: "This is a glorious swimsuit. I wear it to swim lengths (front crawl) and for aqua aerobics. It is a technical costume yet also looks glamorous (even though I say so myself!). It is the most comfortable and supportive swimsuit I have ever worn. A note about sizing - my normal bra size is 34F. The 32FF in this Speedo Iris swimsuit fits perfectly. The body length also fits well (I found the Speedo Premier Ultimate Performance swimsuit long in the body)."

Right now, the Fantasie Ottawa Wrap Full Cup Bikini Top from Bare Necessities is getting a lot of attention for all of the right reasons.

Customer review: "I absolutely love the Fantasies Ottawa Wrap Full Cup Bikini Top. I bought this in black last year & loved it so much I got my daughter one. We are bigger busted girls & both wear a 34DDD (E) and this top fits like a glove. I was excited to find this at the end of season for an upcoming Caribbean trip. Loved that you carry it in the blue pacific. I bought the blue & black plus matching bottoms. Very easy to mix & match with solids & prints."

I have a larger bust and this costume supports and flattens the tummy. It’s lovely quality and true to size. I love it, if it came in another colour I would buy it as well. Well pleased with this purchase."
