These Are the Best Swimwear Brands for Big Boobs
D+ girlies, we’ve got your back. Literally.
Bikini season is finally here and for the chest-fully blessed among us, finding the right fit can be an arduous task. No matter the chest size, swimwear that supports your breasts is important; however, for bigger boobs, it’s paramount. This is partly because improper support can affect your posture and back health in later life (as confirmed by lingerie experts), but also because there’s nothing more annoying than an unintentional nip slip.
For a long time, those of us with fuller busts were relegated to wearing frumpy, oversized bikini tops in little-to-no variety, and one-piece or triangle styles were an absolute no-no. Thankfully, styles have evolved and the chest-friendly swimwear landscape has progressed somewhat, so we now have a lot more options to choose from alongside innovative new bra solutions that mean bigger-boobed girlies can try more styles than ever before.
As a result, we’ve taken it upon ourselves to curate a foolproof list of the best of the best — tried and tested by Hypebae’s editors. From surprising additions like SKIMS and Good American to the cult-loved CUUP and new players like Youswim and Reign Studio, there’s now a much wider variety of styles, colorways and price points to choose from.

Form and Fold

About: Specifically catered towards women with D+ bra sizes, Form and Fold was born out of frustration from its founders with the lack of fuller bust swimwear, leading to a lack of confidence in and around the beach. One of the few swimwear brands that (surprisingly) opt for using bra sizing for its pieces, the brand focuses on offering premium materials, supportive design and D+ swimwear that looks as good as it feels.
Price Range: £50-230 GBP / approx $60-280 USD
What to Buy: Base Top and Tri Top, ’90s high-rise bottoms.

About: Undoubtedly one of the world’s favorite bigger-bust brands, CUUP is one of the more obvious choices for big-boobed swimwear. Support sits at the heart of the brand’s ethos, and continues as it expands to cater to 53 sizes. Each of the brand’s best-selling silhouettes feature their own distinctive details (whether that’s sheerness, shape or coverage) while not compromising on sexiness or support.
Price Range: £54-78 GBP / $68-98 USD

Reign Studio

About: Reign Studio was born after its founder noticed a gap in the market for women with bigger busts who didn’t necessarily identify as plus-sized. Catering to women of all shapes and sizes, the brand focuses on creating swimwear for the larger bust — whether its wearer is petite or plus-sized.
Price Range: £32-58 GBP / $40-70 USD

About: Contrary to what you might believe, Kim Kardashian’s SKIMS does more for fuller busts than it gets credit for — and we should know because Hypebae’s tried it all. With pieces crafted from the brand’s signature, ultra-stretchy material, even tiny triangle styles (that once seemed impossible) actually do well to keep the girls in place.

Bravissimo

Carrying cup sizes from D to L, the brand primarily deals in lingerie but also has an extensive selection of supportive and style-forward swimwear in over 100 styles.
Price Range: £20-88 GBP / $27-140 USD

TA3 SWIM
View this post on Instagram
About: TA3’s swimwear range centers around four core pillars: flattening and smoothing, curve-enhancing lacing, hidden shaping panels and an extensive size range that caters from cups A to K. “Why do we wear shapewear under our clothes but when we’re most exposed, we wear the flimsiest, most shapeless garments ever?” asks the brand’s founder, and as a result — TA3’s selection is anything but flimsy or shapeless.
Price Range: £49-148 GBP / $58-178
What to Buy: Plungey, Lifty, Squarey.
