Skims mesh bra - could I wear under a swimsuit?

[Anonymous]

Does anyone have this bra, or fabric knowledge to know if I could potentially wear underneath a swimsuit? https://skims.com/products/ultra-fine-mesh-underwire-scoop-bra-bronze -- - or have another bra you'd recommend for this use?

In my mind it's exactly what I need - no padding and thin fabric that won't hold water. I have a couple swimsuits I love and are high quality, though have too little support to really be comfortable. I am a DD, so "shelf bra" is useless and unlike those with smaller chests I'm actually more comfortable in a bra than without.

Why don’t you just get a new swimsuit with support. I feel like this would be so uncomfortable. And I’d be worried about the bra peeking out.

I have found that any spandex bra works under a swimsuit as long as it's not padded. Personally, I have never found a swimsuit with enough support so I bought one that works over my existing bra. (Honestly, I just wear a swim shirt with a bottom.)

The swimsuits that are made by lingerie companies (Fantasie, Freya, etc.) have hidden underwires that provide support without padded cups. Check those out.

Lands End has suits with actual support.

OP here - thanks for the recommendations! I'll check those out.

I'm not fully opposed to buying a new suit, I just wish I could wear the ones I have already more comfortably. Suits with built-in support tend to either be way too busty, too grandma-y, or not fit right since my size ratio isn't common.

Size ratio…? Unfortunately I’m an I cup. Curvy like Christina Hendricks.

I bet this would work. It’s super thin but supportive.

I just looked up Christina Hendricks measurements, and I am actually super close! After two kids, my breasts don’t have much lift in them, hence the need for help
