I actually like my summersalt suit (the one shoulder one everyone seems to have). I also got a few things from Trina Turk that I really like. And i have robin Piccone and Boden suits I like.

I’m a 34 DD and love the Albion crop top with tie back. Super supportive. I hate their high rise bottoms but I’m only 5’2” so high rise looks ridiculous on me. Tried Summersalt and it was comical how unsupportive it was.

The key with Summersalt is to buy a size smaller - I am a 36DD and love mine. I have a suit without cups, too.

I like to be comfortable chasing kids. These work for me. I’m a petite 8

Hi from the Puerto Rico! I’m on vacation here and just splurged and bought myself a Jantzen brand one piece for $100 - the most I’ve ever spent on a suit! We’re generally the same height and weight except I have a larger bra size -D! I like a one piece with adjustable straps (like on a bra) and an underwire.

PP above re: Jantzen. There’s a Jantzen size guide online. I bought an 8.

I have a couple of one piece Albion ones. 2 of them are a different material - almost a scuba like fabric but they look normal. It sucks uou in and smooths everything out. The other ones are normal material but flattering cuts

You would look good in a high waisted bottom fully covered in the back and a fitted top with a B cup.

I have a large bust. Elomi underwire bikini tops have amazing support.

BUT, we are taking a milestone 20th anniversary splurge trip to Hawaii this summer. I was thinking I'd like to buy myself a slightly nicer bathing suit or two to celebrate. On Facebook the Summersault ones are cute - are they any good? I'm willing to spend up to $120 or so per bathing suit.

Where should I look for this? I also looked at Athleta but they didn't have many patterns, which I think I want.

Please be nice to me! I don't normally splurge on myself and this is hard for me.

Why would anyone be mean to you about this? It’s just a request for swimsuit recommendations.

Are you new here? DCUM is mean about some of the most innocuous things and the original poster is always at "fault."

NP. Like you, now?

Oh go F off.

It’s true tho.

My advice for OP is Andie (I really like the Malibu for it's choose-your-adventure sexiness aspect), but I have followed this ad and put suits in my cart so. many. times! without pulling the trigger. Do you feel like the one you got is stretching out? Is there ever a feeling like one of your boobs might pop out (the top being two separate pieces makes me nervous - I'm a DD)? Sorry for the AMA.

Has anyone tried Une Piece? I’m being influenced but it does look flattering on my social media ads on more apple and pear body types. Can anyone speak to the quality?
