Blush Swimwear?

So I haven't had a fitting swimsuit in years, and I'm really hoping to get one by this summer. I'm not 100% sure on what I'm looking for, but something pretty and comfy and that I'd be able to swim in without falling out.

In a recent email ad from Herroom, I spotted this swim suit. I think it looks pretty cool, and I love how criss-crossy the back is. I don't even know if tie-backs are compatible with large cup/small band bodies. And it doesn't come in my size at all, so it probably wouldn't work. But it's so tempting. I'm also not sure if a long line/bustier type thing would work on me at all. When I tried the 34G - Le Mystere ยป Soiree Bustier (4556) it just squished my fat in the most unflattering way. But in my head it's such a good idea to walk the balance between supportive swim top and bikini.
I also don't know if I'd want to spend $84 to try it. And at that price I certainly wouldn't add $44 for matching bottoms.

Anyway, just dropping this here to keep in my mind for the future, and in case any of you have opinions, since I can't find much about this swimwear online. :)

  • I believe it's a more youthful sub-brand of Gottex. I see it at Marshall's or TJ Maxx during the summer time. Look for it there.

  • I found it in my local Nordstrom's and tried on a few of the sizes. It was actually super cute, but I couldn't find a size that fit. The sizing in person is weird - it says S/M/L and then a cup size. So the S/"F Cup" was too small in the cup. The M/"E cup" was also too small in the cup, but they didn't have a M/"F Cup" for me to try.

    But overall it looked way better on me than I expected, which is nice. :) I took a couple pictures - I'm not sure if there's a way to share them on here without doing a whole bra entry.
