is there such a thing as a non-frumpy tankini?

[Anonymous]

And where would I buy one?

I love the two piece because I hate struggling to use the bathroom pulling down a wet one-piece. I also loved my tankini because it sort of looked like clothes, and I didn't feel like I had to cover up to just walk around the pool - it was like a super short tennis skirt and a top that didn't show any stomach. I know it's frumpy though. I can't stand the idea of my hips/thighs all hanging out. Help. This summer immediately post-covid is TOUGH.

I have an underwire tankini from the brand Bleu Rod, and I don't think it looks frumpy: https://bleurodbeattie.com/collections/bikini-tops

Athleta - not frumpy at all.

No, no there isn’t.

Why are you struggling to pull a one piece down to use the bathroom. It is super easy to just pull the gusset over to the side.

No thank you to that solution!

OP, just avoid shirring, blouson and little skirts. It can be done.

Not if you’re taking a dump or changing a tampon (near impossible to do one-handed).

Really? I always change a tampon one handed. What does your second hand do? I'm so curious now.

The problem that I run into with these is they look so great on the models but I look like a grandma in them. I think you need a certain body type to pull it off.

Some women have very small labia making one handed tampon change easier. Others need the 2nd hand to move labia to the side. Fascinating differences.

I wear a rash guard, bikini top, and boy shorts. It’s comfy and you can unzip the rash guard for cleavage. Honestly, few women love how they look in bathing suits. I just stay comfortable.

Every time I try to pull it to the side I end up having the pee go everywhere. Hard to explain how but it’s happened enough for me to never do this again.
