Mahalia and RAQ Apparel Just Dropped a Collab for the Fuller Bust Babes
Releasing a new collection of DD+ swimwear styles.
London-based musician and all-around icon Mahalia has been pretty outspoken about the struggles of having a fuller bust when it comes to finding clothes that fit well and support the girls. This is a topic we’ve also explored in depth at Hypebae, from examining the fuller bust’s presence on fashion week runways to discovering the swimwear labels that can actually support them.
Now, it appears the two have come together in perfect harmony, as Mahalia has teamed up with rising swimwear label, RAQ Apparel, for a collection of DD+ swimwear styles in a summer-ready print. RAQ is known for its focus on fuller-bust swimwear and according to the brand’s website, its pieces are made “for busty people, by busty people.”

The new collaboration brings together the brand’s swimwear expertise with Mahalia’s distinctive style, resulting in one multiway top, swimwear singlet and matching shorts, plus two different bikini bottom silhouettes. According to the brand, the collaboration is “inspired by palm trees, hibiscus flowers, and the ethereal sunsets of Jamaica. This collection comes in an extensive size range and aims to inspire confidence in busty people like us.”
Speaking about the collection and its inspiration, Mahalia said “It was actually always incredibly difficult for me to find bikinis that would fit my boobs whilst also being comfy and making me feel sexy, I could never just follow my friends in some normal shops and buy a bikini because they just wouldn’t fit and it’s kind of like I had to sacrifice one for the other, comfort, or sexiness. I’m unbelievably excited about this collaboration and everything it means, and the fact it’s for the fuller-busted babes. I hope you love it as much as I do.”
The collaboration is available in 58 different bra sizes, from a D cup to a J.
