  • 100 + for a swim suit, that I shouldn't even be wearing. I have no swim suit, not that I am some avid swimmer, but I would like to have one in slight chance I do something summery this summer, or even to wear under a tank top this summer. I would like to get a size L/XL, but all I see everywhere is bikinnis and skirted suits. Well I don't care that I am obese, I am not wearing a darn skirted suit! LOL, but I am certainly not wearing a bikinni.
    Any suggestions where they sell suits?
  • This comes in XL and is pretty cute: http://www.overstock.com/Clothing/Ce...3/product.html

    I have bought one at Target in the past.

    I recently got one for $5 (it's a simple one piece, purple) at a discount store. Not so supportive in the bust, but fine for sitting in a sauna, whirlpool or doing laps.

    I may lay out the money for a Lane Bryant swimsuit though, because I want to do aqua aerobics a lot and need more bust support. Also, I have "Real Women Dollars" and there's a buy one get one 50% off, making a 2 piece swimsuit at Lane Bryant $75 before Real Women credits.
  • You should try the various department stores online -- Macy's, Penney's, Kohl's, Sears. I know sometimes they have a bigger selection of one piece suits online than they have in the stores.
  • I found a nice "basic" one-piece that's actually not too bad at Lands End. I just went on vacation to Costa Rica w/ my husband's family -- I must've ordered/tried on 20+ suits. Lots of return postage and frustration later, I picked a Lands End off the rack at a local Sears and bought it without trying it on. Put it on the first day on vacation and it was better than all the others I'd tried on, lol. Go figure!
  • Target swim suits (free shipping on $50+ purchases too): http://www.target.com/gp/search/601-...x_1_1&x=15&y=7
  • Target has really nice ones..same with Torrid, although they are pretty pricey. I bought a really cute tankini from there last year.
  • SoulBliss- wow that one at overstock IS really cute, I agree. I wasn't thinking two pc, but wow, that's nice! Draw the attention to my chest and sholders and forget about the rest, that should work!
  • For "functional" ones the Danksin one worked well for me and is $60 but they often have online coupons. Also Manufactures like TYR and Speedo usually have plus sizes. I have a 40 percent off code for TYR if you want it.

    LB suits are WAY over priced and the quality for that price sucks. LB angers me that they think they can charge that much because they think we have nowhere else to go.
  • What is "TYR"? I'm interested too, if the code is good for more than one person and they have bigger sizes.
  • I just did a search for TYR, they look good, like they are actually made for swimmers!!!

    Never mind. Looks like they don't make past XL.
  • SB -

    I lucked into the code because it was sent to me because of my Triathlon entry. I believe it's also good for friends and family (which is you guys right?)

    The only thing to be cautious of is I find their sizing on the small size... so in general I would go a size up. Also some of their suits have no "top" support so make sure you look to see which ones have it. The "Maxback" ones cover enough of the back for us larger girls. Not all styles come in Plus sizes but quite a few do.

    The code is LTFNYTRI03 good until June12. It's good for free shipping too. Note that although it looks like it charges you shipping it's deducted from the total already.
  • Thanks, I just need to look around more I guess. The size chart I looked at stopped at 40/XL.

    I hope that Vixjean finds one there, at Target or gets that cute Overstock.com one!
  • Some styles I think go upto a size 46 (Size 20ish) I wear a size 42 and I'm between a 14/16 currently.
  • Check Junonia, they're kind of pricey but I like their styles
