Let’s take a moment to think about what comes to mind when you think of supportive swimsuits. If you are shopping for pieces that truly deliver in both support and style, then you’ve come to the right place. It doesn’t matter whether you are doing laps, lounging by the pool, or heading out on holiday; we believe that feeling secure in your swimwear is just as important as looking great.
Supportive Swimsuits
Our customers tell us that support in swimwear means more than just coverage. It means confidence. It means being able to move, stretch, swim, and jump in the waves without worrying about your suit shifting, your bust needing to hike, or your straps digging in.
For those of us with fuller busts, good swimsuit support equals freedom. And our swimsuits are able to offer this in the form of built-in shelf bras that ensure your bust is lifted and supported. Our swimsuits offer no bounce, no pinch, just fantastic freedom and movement in the pool or on the beach.
From our experience, support becomes especially essential when you factor in the following -
Water movement (waves, underwater motion)
Higher bust sizes (D-cup and above)
Regular pool use (chlorine, repeated wear)
Desire for style and function
Supportive Swimsuits
Here at our Halocline, we’ve used our years of experience with swimwear and feedback from our customers to develop some of the most supportive swimwear in the UK right now. But our supportive swimsuits are different as we use super soft, but fully chlorine-proof, eco-friendly material which supports but feels amazing against the skin, so you can wear our swimsuits with comfort and ease. Here’s what features our customers who want supportive swimsuits love the most.
Built-in Structured Support
Think shelf bras, foam cups, under-bust seams, and supportive linings. Our swimsuits are meant for water activity and lounging. Your choice.
Adjustable Straps
Our adjustable straps allow you to fine-tune the fit of your supportive swimsuit. Our clip-back and U-back designs can make a big difference in how stable the suit feels. Simply look for adjustable straps, decent bust support, something like a shelf bra, a clip back, and an under-bust seam, and you've got the support you need in a swimsuit.
High-quality Fabrics
This is especially important for those of you who swim regularly; the fabric needs to hold shape, resist chlorine, and still feel comfortable. Our supportive swimsuits for larger busts are made with Econyl® recycled yarn, which offers light compression and best bust support, whilst also being fully chlorine proof and super soft.
Inclusive Sizing
Support doesn’t just mean a bigger size; it means the construction is tuned for your shape. Many of our supportive swimsuits come in an extended size range. Size 8 with a big bust, no problem. Size 24, we’ve also got a supportive swimsuit that’s perfect for you.
Style
We strongly believe you shouldn’t have to compromise on style. Supportive swimwear still needs to feel fun, beautiful and reflective of your personality, and that’s what our supportive swimsuit offers. You’ll feel supported, body confident and beautiful in our range.
