Large Cup Size Swimwear

Britain's busts are bigger than ever – with some of us needing an N-cup. But ...

Rigby & Peller, the Queen’s underwear supplie r, has launched the N-cup bra, the biggest size ever made in Britain. It’s certain to be a relief for thousands of women who have been squeezing their breasts into ill-fitting bras for years.

In the Fifties, the average woman fitted comfortably into a B-cup, but today underwear retailer Bravissimo estimates at least 60 per cent of women in a C-cup should be wearing a D-cup — or larger. The average size is closer to a 34E than the 36C we’re led to believe.

So, with the nation’s breasts swelling and a typical L-cup weighing more than a stone, we wondered what life is really like for those ‘blessed’ with a big chest. Here, five readers reveal whether their bigger breasts are an asset or an affliction...

I'd give anything to look like my friends with their pert breasts. But instead I’m dreaming of a breast reduction on the NHS to decrease my chest by four sizes to a GG-cup.

Perhaps then I will get a good night’s sleep instead of spending hours struggling to get comfortable.

By the time I was 14 I was a G-cup. Unlike my friends, I’ve missed out on the joy of being able to wear trendy clothes such as slash-neck baggy tops. They just hang off my boobs and make me look enormous all over, but on my friends they look great.

I have to wear fitted, stretchy tops that mould to my shape.

Last summer, a group of us went on holiday to Jamaica and the other girls had lots of pretty bikinis, while I felt ordinary in a boring black swimsuit.

People rarely think about the emotional side of having a big cleavage or how it feels to be passed over in favour of your slimmer friends.

On nights out, my friends attract compliments for their looks or style, but all I ever get is ‘Oh, you’ve got huge boobs!’ as though they can’t think of anything else to say about me.

I’ve rarely known how it feels to have a man speak to me because he wanted to and not just because he was fascinated by the size of my breasts.

Other girls have beautiful lingerie sets, but I have no choice unless I invest in bespoke bras. But at £160, the price is prohibitive.

The only advantage I can see to having a chest this big is that I get served quickly in pubs and nightclubs.

My friend, who had H-cup breasts, had them reduced to an E-cup and she swears it’s the best thing she’s ever done. She no longer has aches and pains or problems buying fashionable clothes.

It is unusual but they do not say what kind of bust support the one piece and tankini tops provide in this line…Bare Necessities has the Panache Loren swimwear line, and they list the one piece and tankini top to be underwire styles.

Is it just me, or are there really a lot more large cup swimwear styles, so far, this year than in previous years?
