Best Swimsuits for the Busty Woman

For the well-endowed, the approaching swimsuit season can be less than appealing. While other, less robust women eagerly shop for the latest and cutest swimsuit, their busty counterparts cringe, envisioning the shopping swimwear nightmare they know awaits them.

Fortunately, this year is different. Nowadays there are more and more avenues for big breasted women to find swimwear that can hold its own. Both online and off, some stores have recognized the demand and begun stocking their shelves with bustier swimwear. 

Coco Reef swimwear seems to have finally nailed it! They are sized by cup (32-38 C-DD) and have a number of styles in bikinis, tankinis and full suits. They also come with or without under wire. Bikini tops run about $56 and bottoms (sized S-L) run about $30. They do not have a website but there are plenty of online carriers. You can also find them at Macy's.

Tummy Thinner seems like a promising line of swimwear. As you can imagine, they only sell one-pieces but the cups seem substantial and are definitely worth trying on. A bit pricy at about $90 per suit. Again, no official website, also sold at Macy's.

Anne Cole is hands down, the go-to woman for busty swimwear. Ms Cole just seems to really get big breasts. You will likely have to purchase the top a size or two bigger, regardless of frame. However, most of her bikini tops tie, which means you can adjust them to fit your body. Macy's carries a large selection of her swimwear, including halters, tankinis, bikinis and suits. Anne Cole can be a little pricey but if you can make it to your TJ Maxx or Marshalls, you may nab a deal. The Nordstrom Rack might be another outlet for her swimwear. You can always call them and ask.

Longitude is a brand of swimwear that specializes in tankinis and suits. The brand's main focus is minimizing, which means that their swimsuits tend to have a lot of support, which equals good news for big breasts. Longitude swimwear comes with or without cups, but those with cups tend to have the best support. JC Penney, TJ Maxx and Marshalls carry the label for about $30-$60.
