    Hello hive!  I am in desperate need of ideas of where to find a D-cup tankini with underwire for my honeymoon.  So far, I have looked at Fig Leaves, LL Bean, Land's End, and Athleta and have yet to find any that are honeymoon worthy.  I can find a lot of solid colored ones, but I was really hoping to find some cute prints.  I also was hoping to avoid halter style, because I will be wearing it all day and don't want it digging into my neck.  Any suggestions?

    How about QVC.com? Or HSN? My mom got a super cute one from there that held her in and gave her great support in all the right places. The one she got is a cute print...

    here is a pic :)

    I've gotten swimsuits at JCrew that kept the girls under wraps and also at Target.

    Nordstrom and Nordstrom.com have been my swimsuit provider of choice ever since I grew these DDs... (my mother swears I must have been switched at birth... she's an A!).  Anyways, Nordies has amazing bathing suit customer service which is something I need when going through the trauma of seeing all those adorable little suits that won't support me!  :)

    I bought my top at ebw, it was pricey, but it fits so nicely.

    I have the same problem finding cute bathing suits that give support. Luckily for me my FI can sew and will be making me bathing suits for our honeymoon. Good luck and let me know where you find something!!!

    Well I see you've already listed the obvious choices, may I suggest the place where Mrs. DG got her awesome tankini?

    Nordstroms tankini shop!  (Great selection!)

    The best swim wear in my mind is Malia Mills but she is pricey but worth it.  Check her out online, they really support you

    JCrew makes some of their swimwear specifically in "D" cup sizes - so I'd start there!

    J. Crew!  They have tankinis that come in D-cup.  I'm a DD and I love their swimsuits.

    Agreed on "Everything but Water." If it helps, mine is from the brand "Becca".
