Finding a flattering swimsuit if you're plus size with sagging breasts can be a challenge. The perfect suit needs to provide comfort, confidence, and support, while reflecting your own style. We’ve pulled together some of our favourite styles which are best suited to those who want a plus size swimsuit but also need support for their bust.
Plus Size Swimsuits for Saggy Breasts
For sagging or less firm breasts, support is key. When shopping for swimwear, look for the following -
- An in-built shelf bra, underwire or moulded/padded cups for lift and shape
Thick, adjustable straps. - Compression or tummy-control fabric to smooth and support.
- Ruching or swish details to camouflage and flatter.
- One-piece or tankini styles for full coverage.
- Avoid strapless styles as these often lack support.
Combine Fit with Comfort
Adjustable straps and clip-back closures let you tailor the lift and support to your body shape. We’d suggest choosing long-line or longer-length suits, especially if you have a longer torso, for better coverage and support from your swimwear.
Buy a good quality swimsuit, as these will retain their shape for much longer and will give you the lift and support you desire.
Flattering Features to Look For
We’d suggest a style with ruching across the midsection and bust can enhance your silhouette. Look for swimsuits with shelf bras and built-in support, as this will give you a subtle lift without visible padding.
Bold patterns or colour-blocking will draw attention away from areas you are less keen about.
High necklines or high waist detailing offer extra coverage and a stylish look.
Here are our top three choices for those looking for plus size swimsuits for saggy breasts.
Lucille Longer Length Swimsuit – Evergreen Blooms
This one-piece includes a flattering neckline and tummy-control ruching. The thick straps and shelf bra will give you excellent support for sagging breasts. Its longer length is ideal for those with longer torsos.
Stella Longer Length Clip-back Swimsuit – Navy/Pink
Designed like a high-waist bikini but full-coverage, it features a band under the bust and adjustable straps. You’ll find that the clip-back offers lift and security, while the UV protective and chlorine-proof fabric ensures durability and comfort whilst you swim, whether that’s in your local pool or on holiday.
Dolly Longer Length Swimsuit – Forest
This swimsuit has been designed for larger-busted ladies. It provides under-bust seam tension and cup gathers that lift and prevent slipping. You’ll love the tummy control fabric as it smooths your tummy and creates you a beautiful silhouette.
