I currently own more than 60 pieces of swimwear—not (just) because I'm a fashion hoarder and beach holiday obsessive, but because as someone with big boobs, the hunt for the perfect fit has been a long, arduous one. Anyone blessed with a D+ cup will be all too familiar with my predicament, because still today, most swimwear brands simply do not cater to those of us with larger busts. It's a seriously sad state of affairs, particularly given the average UK bra size is generally considered to be 36DD.
Add to this the fact that I'm a fashion editor with discerning tastes, and the number of options becomes even more limited. Yes, I'm looking for swimwear that offers support and comfort—but that doesn't mean I want to spend my summers in huge, unsightly contraptions with no consideration for trends, quality, or elevated style.
